Sean “Diddy” Combs has been accused of attempting to “corruptly influence” the outcome of his trial. Prosecutors trying Diddy’s upcoming case filed a new legal motion on Friday, November 15, arguing that the disgraced rapper’s fourth bail attempt should be denied for allegedly trying to obstruct an investigation. In court documents obtained by CNN , the attorneys cited a review of recorded calls from Diddy, 55, and said they were allegedly made under telephone accounts belonging to other inmates.
The prosecutors claim that Diddy paid the other Metropolitan Detention Center inmates via intermediaries. He reportedly made “hundreds” of calls and texts in violation of jail rules. “Since the defendant has been detained at MDC, he has continued to try to evade law enforcement monitoring, corruptly influence witness testimony, and further attack the integrity of these proceedings,” the court documents read.
“While attempting to evade law enforcement monitoring, the defendant has, among other things, orchestrated social media campaigns that are, in his own words, aimed at tainting the jury pool; made efforts to publicly leak materials he views as helpful to his case; and contacted witnesses through third parties.” Diddy and his attorneys have not publicly addressed the latest accusations. Us Weekly has reached out for comment.
The music mogul was indicted by a grand jury in September, weeks before he was arrested and charged on counts of sex trafficking, racke.
