Diddy’s Lawyer Celebrates Racketeering and Sex-Trafficking Acquittal: ‘Victory of All Victories’


Diddy's lawyer talked the verdict handed down by the jury during a press conference on Wednesday (July 2), calling their decision a "victory."

Combs’ attorney, Marc Agnifilo, made the statement during a press conference Wednesday evening (July 2) outside the federal courthouse in Manhattan, where a jury cleared the rapper earlier in the day of the most serious counts he faced. The defense attorney also hinted at a possible appeal of the two prostitution counts on which Combs was found guilty, which allege that he transported girlfriends and male escorts across state lines for drug-fueled sex parties. Judge Arun Subramanian rejected Combs’ request for bail following Wednesday’s verdict, saying the music mogul’s admitted history of domestic violence makes him a danger to society.
