A federal judge ordered prosecutors Tuesday to destroy copies of notes taken by Sean “Diddy” Combs in his Brooklyn jail cell while the judge considers arguments from the rapper’s attorneys, who claimed the seizure of the notes violated attorney-client privilege.
TIMELINE
November 19 U.S. District Judge Arun Subramanian told prosecutors to “get rid of” their copies of handwritten notes taken by Combs in jail, making the decision as he considers legal arguments from Combs’ lawyers that the notes were subject to attorney-client privilege and counter arguments from prosecutors who accused Combs of writing about a witness tampering plot.
November 15 In a filing opposing Combs’ request to be released on bail, prosecutors claim Combs has attempted to “corruptly influence witness testimony” by asking his family members to reach out to victims and potential witnesses and create “narratives” to affect their opinion, while also asking his children to post a video to social media in celebration of his birthday and ensuring the video had “his desired effect on potential jury members in this case.”
November 12 In "The Downfall of Diddy: Inside the Freak-Offs,” Ray J claims high-profile celebrities are "reaching out to victims" and offering them money in exchange for avoiding any public exposure, and aspiring singer-songwriter Tanea Wallace described her experience at a 2018 party where she said she saw minors “dressed up like Harajuku Barbies, red lipstick, looking like real sexy.”
November 8 Combs’ attorneys again requested the mogul be released on bail with a $50 million bond with a laundry list of new conditions, including home detention in Miami or New York City, security lockdown and no internet access, which is scheduled to be heard at a hearing on Nov. 22.
