Cassie's Lawyer and Prosecution Ask Judge to Deny Diddy's Bail Request


Diddy faces pushback on bail request as Cassie's lawyer and prosecutors argue for continued detention after his trial verdict

The letter continued, “Even if detention was not mandatory here, which it is, the defendant cannot meet his burden to show by clear and convincing evidence that he is not likely to flee or pose a danger to any other person or the community.” In the courtroom on Wednesday, Diddy’s attorney Marc Agnifilo requested his client’s immediate release, telling Judge Arun Subramanian soon after the verdict was read, “His family is here and could sign a bond.” While Agnifilo requested a $1 million bond that would allow Diddy to travel to New York, Los Angeles and Florida, prosecutor Maurene Comey opposed his release, arguing, “A person found guilty shall be detained until the judicial officer finds he is not likely to flee or be a danger.”
