SUMMARY: The judge denied bail for hip hop mogul Sha Denny Combmes ahead of his sentencing, citing his disregard for the law and violence. Combmes was found guilty of two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution but not guilty of sex trafficking and racketeering conspiracy. The jury heard testimony from 34 witnesses, including former girlfriends Cassie Ventura and a woman known as Jane, who described coercion into sexual encounters and domestic abuse. Prosecutors aim for incarceration, with potential sentences up to 20 years. While Combmes and his defense celebrated acquittals on serious charges, the judge rejected bond requests, scheduling sentencing for October 3, with possible rescheduling.

A jury on Wednesday reached a unanimous verdict on all counts in Sean “Diddy” Combs’ sex trafficking trial in New York City on the third day of deliberations.

SUMMARY: Shannon Overstreet, accused of murdering his three-month-old baby Angel in 2021, appeared in Cabell County court as his October trial nears. Prosecutors aim to validate evidence to shorten the anticipated lengthy trial. They presented search warrants from May 2021 covering Overstreet’s homes, car, phones, computers, and Ring camera. Overstreet reportedly purchased suspicious items, including a 55-gallon barrel later found with bone fragments at his Kentucky farm. Angel wasn’t reported missing publicly until May 25th, with Overstreet arrested on unrelated charges before his December 2023 murder indictment. Judge Ferguson ruled the warrants valid but will review Overstreet’s recorded statements before finalizing evidence admissibility.

A man accused of murdering his 3-month-old baby in Huntington and disposing of her body in Kentucky in 2021 was back in court in Cabell County.
