Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs denied bail for a third time over ‘serious risk’ of witness tampering

Judge rules that the court ‘doubts the sufficiency of any conditions’ that place trust in Combs to follow bail rules

Prosecutors had previously accused Combs of trying to contact prospective witnesses from jail in an attempt to create “narratives” to influence public opinion as well as potential jurors for his impending sex trafficking trial. Combs is at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn on charges of racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking and transportation for prostitution and has been accused of violating prison regulations. Combs’ lawyers say he should be released to give him time to prepare for his trial in 2025, and that the seizure from his cell earlier this month of 20 pages was unlawful and that the documents were subject to attorney-client privilege.
