BBC News in New York Court
Scene “Didi” Comombs’s legal team on Tuesday rested their case in their sex trafficking trial on Tuesday after arguing for 20 minutes.
His short performance led to the arguments and witnesses of about seven weeks brought by federal prosecutors in New York. The prosecution made its case on Tuesday afternoon.
His defense lawyers argued that the government had failed to fulfill the burden in proving any allegations against him, which he has strictly denied, and the judge should leave the case against him.
Mr. Comombs also confirmed the court that he would not take a stand in his test. “This is my decision with my lawyers”, not to testify, he told the judge.
Mr. Comombs has requested not to be guilty of sexual trafficking, racketing and transport allegations to engage in prostitution. He faces life in jail when he is convicted in the plan.
Speaking for the first time in court in the week on Tuesday, Mr. Comombs told Judge Arun Subramanian that he was “doing an excellent work”.
“I want to thank you,” the rapper told the judge.
The prosecutors have alleged that Mr. Comombs used his celebration and business empire, so that they could run a criminal enterprise for sex traffic women and hide their crimes. During his arguments, the government called over 30 witnesses to the stand.

Raksha did not call anyone, instead gave evidence of several text messages between Mr. Comombs and his former-girlfriend, singer Cassandra Ventura and another victim, who testified under the pseudo-name Jane.
New York -based lawyer and former prosecutor Mitchell Anerner said that it is always difficult for defense teams to decide whether any fact is to call the witness to a stand.
Calling new witnesses can offer more problems for defense by calling – and even after taking a stand to Mr. Comombs, there will be a even more risky step, mostly hanging the case on his testimony, Mr. Apnar said.
Instead, the lawyers of Mr. Comombs made a prompt performance, showing a message in an attempt to increase his argument that Mr. Comomb’s girlfriends were participants in sexual encounters with him and male escorts, called freak-offs.

In a text message to Mr. Combes that his lawyers read out loud, Jane “I always enjoy” during his freak-off, or what he called “Hotel Nights”.
A quick defense case came after the legal team of Mr. Comombs filed a resolution, claiming to acquit their client, claiming that the government did not meet its burden in proving any allegations, including sex smuggling and racketoring.
Their Attorney Alexandra Shapiro argued that the victims in the case were competent women, who could leave their own agreement, which the legal team was likely to be introduced to the end of this week while closing the arguments set on Thursday and Friday.
Mr. Combes “regrettably violent, but domestic violence is not sex trafficking”, Ms. Shapiro said.
The prosecutors have argued that the pre-girlfriends of Mr. Comombs were included in unwanted sex acts with drugs, violence and other means.
