On Thursday, Bryana Bongolan, Cassie Venturaās friend, testified. The defense cross-examined her about her claims that Combs held her against the railing of a 17th-floor balcony. The defense questioned the timeline Bongolan presented.
During a break after her testimony, Subramanian issued a warning to Combsā defense team when the jury was not present. He said Combs had seemingly communicated with the jury during Bongolanās testimony.
āI saw your client looking at the jury and nodding vigorously,ā he said, per The New York Times. āThat is absolutely unacceptable.ā
Subramanian asked Combsā lawyer, Marc Agnifilo, for assurance that this would not happen again. If it did, he said it would result in the āexclusion of your client from the courtroom.ā
Agnifilo assured the judge that Combs would not attempt to make contact with the jury again. When Combs returned to the courtroom, he nodded at reporters and blew the sketch artist a kiss.
