In the runup to his May 2025 trial on the charges of racketeering, sex trafficking and transportation to engage in prostitution, mogul rapper Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs is attempting to reverse his pre-trial incarceration and be granted bail.
In their court filing, prosecutors argue against releasing Combs, saying he remains a flight risk and a risk to society, to witnesses in his trial and potentially to other victims.
And – what’s more – they accuse the disgraced star of continued criminal behavior from inside the Brooklyn MDC prison.
NBC News reported:
“Federal prosecutors have accused Sean “Diddy” Combs of breaking jail rules in an attempt to manipulate witness testimony and taint the potential jury pool in his case, according to a court document filed Friday.”
In custody at Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center, Combs entered a not guilty plea.
His legal team keeps fighting the decision to deny Combs bail and has requested yet another bail hearing.
In their opposition to the motion, prosecutors accused Combs of obstruction from behind bars.
“Combs has allegedly ‘continued to try to evade law enforcement monitoring, corruptly influence witness testimony, and further attack the integrity of these proceedings’, the filing said.
According to prosecutors, Combs has ordered payments to fellow inmates to use their telephone accounts and has used three-way calling to contact people who are not on his approved contacts list against federal prison regulations.”
