Sean "P Diddy" Combs will remain in custody as a U.S. judge considers his request for release on $50 million bail.
Following a two-hour hearing in Manhattan federal court, Judge Arun Subramanian stated he would make a decision "promptly." Combs has been held at the Brooklyn Metropolitan Detention Center for 10 weeks.
Combs’ defence proposed a bail package secured by his $48-million Florida mansion, 24/7 security monitoring, and restrictions on contacting alleged victims or witnesses.
Prosecutors claimed that Combs tried to hide evidence, broke rules by communicating improperly while in jail, and attempted to influence potential jurors through social media. His lawyers denied these accusations, insisting he is innocent and pointing out flaws in the case.
Combs has pleaded not guilty to charges of sexual abuse and sex trafficking, asserting the relationships were consensual. Combs’ lawyers compared his case to others, but prosecutors pointed to his prior arrests and additional evidence, such as firearms with defaced serial numbers recovered from his properties.
