A heckler attended the fourth week of Diddy's federal trial with an ominous warning for the music mogul.

According to reports, a woman was removed from the Manhattan courtroom on Tuesday (June 3) after shouting obscenities before the jury was seated. A tweet from court reporter Matthew Lee of Inner City Press says the woman yelled, "Diddy, [they're] coming after you, those motherfuckers."

Other transcriptions read that the woman claimed the unspecified “they” were "laughing at" the music mogul along with saying, "you're laughing at a Black man's legacy." The woman reportedly dared security to draw their weapons.

While Judge Arun Subramanian had the woman escorted out, Diddy was said to have remained in his seat. While the incident would be the first time an attendee has had an outburst during the trial, outside, protestors have called for Diddy's release.

With fifteen days in and roughly six weeks remaining, the trial has just gotten underway, with Diddy being charged with racketeering, sex trafficking and transportation to engage in prostitution. The woman wouldn't be the first person to have a conspiracy theory about the case, as others like Boosie BadAzz have alleged that there's a takedown being plotted against the Bad Boy Entertainment founder.
