Prosecutors allege that Sean “Diddy” Combs, currently incarcerated in Manhattan, has violated prison rules by contacting potential witnesses in his sex trafficking case, using inmate phones and instructing family members to do the same. This alleged witness tampering, described as a “relentless” effort to influence testimony, prompted prosecutors to oppose his bail request, despite his lawyers citing the difficulties of preparing for trial from prison. The prosecution argues that no conditions could mitigate the substantial risk Diddy poses to the trial’s integrity. Diddy, who has pleaded not guilty, maintains his innocence.
