Sean “Diddy” Combs Awaits Bail Decision Amid Serious Charges
Sean “Diddy” Combs remains in custody as a Manhattan judge deliberates on his bail request. The decision is expected next week, following Friday’s hearing.
Combs, 55, appeared in court wearing a khaki jail uniform. He entered through a side door and acknowledged his family, including his 17-year-old twin daughters seated in the gallery. The hearing, which lasted two hours, focused on allegations of Combs’ communication activities while detained.
The judge requested detailed reports from both parties regarding Combs’ prison communication methods. These documents, to be submitted by Nov. 25, will clarify how he allegedly accessed unauthorized communication tools while facing charges of se$ual trafficking, racketeering, and transportation.
Combs has pleaded not guilty. However, prosecutors accuse him of attempting to influence witnesses by using other inmates’ phone cards. Defense attorneys, describing the prosecution’s case as weak, proposed strict release conditions and a $50 million bail package.
