Federal prosecutors argue that Sean “Diddy” Combs’ latest request for bail should be rejected because he is allegedly trying to interfere with his ongoing sexual assault case.

In a filing made on Friday, prosecutors put forth new allegations against the popular music executive, who is seeking bail for the fourth time following his arrest in September at a Manhattan hotel. The document asserts that Combs “poses a serious risk of obstruction, danger, and flight.”

Currently detained at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn until his trial set for May 2025, Combs has purportedly “orchestrated social media campaigns that he himself claims aim to influence the jury,” according to the prosecution. They have also alleged that he attempted to leak documents that he believes will help his case.

The document includes redacted notes found during a prison sweep, which prosecutors claim indicate that Combs paid a witness to post supportive messages about him on Instagram.

YSL News has reached out to Combs’ representatives for a response.

Additionally, the prosecutors’ filing claims that Combs has “contacted witnesses through intermediaries” and has used the phone accounts of at least eight other inmates “in an apparent attempt to evade law enforcement monitoring.” It also mentions that he tried to reach out to people not on his approved contact list.

According to the filing, Combs “directs others to pay other prisoners for access to their PAC (phone access codes),” using payment apps and deposits to their Bureau of Prisons commissary accounts, fully aware that this violates BOP rules.

On November 8, Combs’ legal team submitted another application to secure his release from detention, presenting what they described as “an extremely substantial, comprehensive bail package.” His previous attempts to gain bail have been turned down by multiple judges.

This latest request follows two prior applications made at the time of his charges and an appeal lodged in the Second Circuit Court of Appeals in September.

In the earlier federal court filings examined by YSL News, Combs’ representatives added conditions to their bond proposals in an effort to demonstrate he is not a flight risk.

They also contested the idea that he poses a danger to the public, arguing that the evidence against him concerning his alleged activities of racketeering, sex trafficking, and facilitating prostitution is not as substantial as prosecutors have claimed.
