Jury selected in P Diddy Case
Published January 27, 2004
CMU reports:
Jury selection began yesterday for the court case against P Diddy/Sean Combs in which the hip hop mogul's former chauffeur claims he was forced - by
Diddy and a bodyguard - to speed away from the scene of a 1999 nightclub
shooting.
Lawyers for Wardel Fenderson said their client "was afraid that if he stopped the car, he was going to be hurt by somebody in the car, and if he didn't, he was going to be hurt by the police" - he is suing for $3 million in damages.
Both Combs and then girlfriend Jennifer Lopez were inside Club New York on
27 Dec when the shooting in question took place - and there is a chance both
could be called to testify in the case. Diddy's people, meanwhile, claim
Fenderson is trying to cash in on Combs' celebrity status.
