Trump open to pardoning Diddy: 'I'd look at what's happening'

President Donald Trump is open to giving a pardon to rap star Sean "Diddy" Combs — but admitted to not following the case closely when asked by reporters, The Daily Beast said on Friday.

Diddy is facing federal charges of racketeering and sex trafficking, following decades of rumors of illicit activity surrounding him. Prosecutors have shown damning evidence to jurors, including a video that appears to show him viciously beating his ex-girlfriend, Cassie Ventura, who alleges he used blackmail and violence to force her to participate in drugged-up orgies.
