YouTuber covering Diddy trial reveals rapper allegedly mouthed three threatening words to her in courtroom

A YouTuber who is covering the Diddy trial has revealed that the rapper allegedly mouthed three threatening words to her in the courtroom.

Stephanie Soo is known for her true crime YouTube videos which have earned her over five million subscribers on the platform.

The content creator has been following the trial of disgraced rapper Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs, who is facing federal charges including racketeering and sex trafficking.

On her Rotten Mango podcast, Soo has been posting daily updates on the case after attending court in person.

Now, it appears that Combs may have mouthed a threatening comment to Soo while in the New York courtroom last week.

Soo took to social media to recall how Combs made eye contact with her from across the room and mouthed, ‘I know you’.

On her TikTok page, she said: “I think Diddy might know us. I don't know, maybe. So I'm just gonna explain.

“Usually Sean Combs will do this thing where he does a sweep of the press pews when he first walks into the courtroom.

“He's like hugging his attorneys, he'll look to the public side, which is on his right and then we're kind of diagonal from him and he oftentimes, since more of his supporters are coming to the courtroom these days, he'll shoot them little hand hearts. He'll put his hand to his chest, he'll mouth, ‘thank you’.

“And then the press pews, we get a simple glance over and sometimes a nod. Now, clearly this stands out to both my researcher and I really strongly because on Thursday, we even write the time down at 8.50 am, jurors are not in the courtroom, Sean Combs sits down at his chair and he turns in his chair to the right. This is our eye direction, like we can see him now.

“He starts staring in what felt like in our general direction or perhaps right behind us and it's a pretty lengthy stare. And then he starts nodding while mouthing the words dramatically, ‘I know you’.

“He mouths it twice with what we perceive to be a smirk, then as he's turning back around to face the front, he's like ever so slightly shaking his head while he's still smirking. But again, I'm not trying to be dramatic.

“I don't know if he was looking at me. He could have been looking behind me, right?”

But this wouldn’t be the last time that Diddy acknowledged Soo as the social media star went on to recall how the incident happened again a week later.

She continued: “Sean Combs turns around and then he talks to his mom and then he's smiling, nodding at her. He's like mouthing, ‘I love you’.

“And then my neck is tilted still because I'm observing him and I'm taking notes about him talking to his mom during this sidebar and as he's making his turn back to the front, it felt like we make awkward eye contact.

“And I say awkward to the point where I'm like, you know when it's so awkward, you almost like instinctively smile or look down because you're like, ‘oh, I just got caught staring at someone’.

“That was the feeling it was like, ‘oh I literally just got caught staring him down’ and he starts rubbing his chin with his left hand and mouths what appears to seem like ‘I know you, I know you’ and this time it seemed more pronounced because as he's rubbing his chin with his left hand, he does like a slight index point.

“It's not like a point, he's not pointing his finger but it's kind of like a hand gesture like, ‘I know you’ like almost pointing at you.”
