Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs has been refused bail three times before, with numerous judges citing a possibility that he may tamper with evidence.
Diddy, who is in Brooklyn jail, has submitted a $50 million bail deal.
Prosecutors believe that US rapper ‘Diddy’, who is facing major sex trafficking and abuse allegations, is attempting to contact possible witnesses and affect public opinion from jail in order to influence the juries.
Crisis in the Cell Block
In a Manhattan court filing, prosecutors opposed Combs’ multimillion-dollar bail proposal, claiming that a review of his recorded jail calls revealed that he asked his family members to contact witnesses and influence their narratives.
According to the prosecutors, during the call, he also discussed marketing methods for shaping public opinion. The subject will be heard this week.
The authorities said that Combs has been breaking the rules since his arrival at the jail in September and that his behavior suggests that he intends to blackmail the victims and witnesses into silence or modify their testimony in his favor.
