Sean 'Diddy' Combs kháng cáo quyết định từ chối tại ngoại trước khi xét xử

The embattled hip-hop mogul’s legal team has filed an appeal with the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit after he was denied bail twice.

Sean “P. Diddy” Combs’ legal team has filed an appeal with the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, challenging the Southern District of New York’s decision to deny him bail twice. The appeal alleges insufficient evidence for detention and legal errors in the court’s ruling.

Combs was arrested last month on charges of racketeering conspiracy, trafficking and transportation to engage. Prosecutors maintain he obstructed justice and tampered with witnesses, while the defense argues that the government has failed to provide clear evidence supporting these claims.

Combs’ team proposed a $50 million bail package, including home detention with GPS monitoring, no internet or phone access and 24/7 supervision. They also offered his $48-million Miami mansion and his mother’s home as collateral.

Judge Andrew L. Carter rejected the bail proposal, citing concerns about public safety and potential witness intimidation. He stated that “no condition or set of conditions” could ensure the safety of the community or the integrity of the case.

Prosecutors allege that for decades, Combs “abused, threatened, and coerced women and those around him” to protect his reputation and conceal his conduct. They claim he facilitated “Freak Offs”, drug-fueled gatherings where he allegedly abused and assaulted victims, often recorded electronically.

Combs’ defense team maintains that he has complied with legal procedures, surrendered his passport, and offered substantial bail to demonstrate his commitment to proving his innocence. They argue that his alleged actions were “vague and speculative” and that the district court made legal errors in its ruling.

Combs’ attorney Marc Agnifilo has expressed concerns about the conditions at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, describing it as “horrific” and “inhumane.” He initially considered transferring Combs to a different facility but later decided against it.

Combs’ legal team is determined to secure his release before trial. A status conference is scheduled for October 9. The defense has declined to agree to a trial in October, indicating they intend to continue fighting the charges.
