Diddy’s Sex Trafficking Trial to Be Led by All-White, All-Female Federal Prosecutors — Including James Comey’s Daughter

Diddy’s Trial Team Revealed: James Comey’s Daughter to Lead All-White, All-Female Prosecution in High-Profile Sex Trafficking Case

As music mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs prepares for his upcoming sex trafficking trial, the U.S. federal prosecution team leading the case is drawing attention for more than just its legal strategy — it’s an all-white, all-female team, headed by none other than Maurene Ryan Comey, the daughter of former FBI Director James Comey.

The trial, which is set to begin next week in the Southern District of New York, will start with jury selection. Diddy has pleaded not guilty to all five federal charges:

  • Two counts of sex trafficking
  • Two counts of transporting individuals to engage in prostitution
  • One count of racketeering

Who Is Leading the Prosecution?

At the helm of the prosecution is Maurene Comey, a graduate of Harvard Law School and a seasoned U.S. Attorney. She is best known for her role in securing the conviction of Ghislaine Maxwell, the notorious associate of Jeffrey Epstein, in another high-profile sex trafficking case.

Maurene is also the daughter of James Comey, who served as the director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) until his controversial firing by President Donald Trump in 2017. Comey was a polarizing figure during the 2016 U.S. presidential election, particularly due to his handling of the Hillary Clinton email investigation.

Maurene’s resume suggests that she brings both experience and a deep understanding of complex, high-profile criminal cases, especially those involving sex trafficking and abuse of power.

Meet the Rest of the Prosecution Team

Joining Maurene Comey on the prosecution team are several other accomplished federal attorneys:

  • Emily Anne Johnson
  • Madison Reddick Smyser
  • Mary Christine Slavik
  • Meredith Foster
  • Mitzi Steiner

Each of these women has a background in criminal law, with special focus on cases involving sexual misconduct, organized crime, or federal racketeering.

Racial Dynamics and Strategic Choices

The all-white makeup of the federal prosecution team is not going unnoticed — especially as Diddy’s legal defense has already raised concerns about racial bias in the proceedings. Diddy’s lead attorney, Marc Agnifilo, has publicly stated that they plan to highlight race as a central issue during the trial.

“This is a takedown of a successful Black man,” Agnifilo said, arguing that the prosecution’s case is racially motivated.

In that context, the government’s choice to field a team of all-white women — particularly in a case involving allegations of sexual exploitation of women of color — could potentially complicate public perception and influence jury dynamics.

However, from a legal standpoint, the DOJ may see this team as a strategic advantage. Given the nature of the charges — sexual exploitation and trafficking of women — female prosecutors may have an easier time connecting with jurors and presenting the government’s case with emotional resonance and credibility.

Charges and Background

The trial is expected to be intense and closely watched, as Diddy faces multiple serious allegations. The charges stem from a federal investigation that spanned years and involved extensive evidence, including:

  • Testimony from alleged victims
  • Digital communications
  • Financial records
  • Travel logs showing cross-border movements allegedly linked to prostitution and trafficking

Prosecutors allege that Diddy used his fame, influence, and financial power to orchestrate a criminal enterprise that trafficked women across state and international lines for sex.

Diddy has denied all allegations, maintaining that the accusations are baseless and part of an orchestrated attack on his reputation and legacy.

He also turned down a plea deal, signaling his intent to fight the charges fully in court.

Public Response and Media Coverage

Social media and cultural commentators have been quick to weigh in on the prosecution team’s makeup, with some questioning whether the optics of an all-white team are ideal in a racially charged trial. Others have noted that the DOJ may simply be putting forward its most experienced attorneys, regardless of demographic factors.

Some legal analysts believe the government is sending a message: that they are taking the case seriously and bringing in their top-tier talent to ensure a conviction in what could become one of the biggest celebrity criminal trials since the R. Kelly case.

What’s Next?

The trial officially begins with jury selection next week, a process that could take several days or even weeks, given the high-profile nature of the case and the extensive media coverage.

Opening statements are expected shortly after the jury is seated, and the trial itself could last several weeks depending on the number of witnesses and the complexity of the arguments.

If convicted, Diddy could face decades in federal prison — a staggering fall for one of the most influential figures in the entertainment industry.
