Sean Combs: Prosecution and defense rest...

NBC NEWS
About this episode

Today, after calling 34 witnesses over six weeks, federal prosecutors rested their case. After that, the defense put on their case. It took them only a half an hour. They called no witnesses. They did argue that the case should be dismissed because the prosecution didn't meet its burden of proof. But the judge reserved his decision on that, and the trial remains on track for the jury to hear summations on Thursday.
