Sean “Diddy” Combs’ lawyers admitted he used other inmates’ phone access codes to make calls, as prosecutors allege he attempted to obstruct justice while awaiting trial on serious charges.

Diddy’s defense team requests that the Hip-Hop icon be unshackled during future court appearances, arguing that the restraints unfairly prejudice potential jurors and interfere with his right to a fair defense.

Diddy is fighting back after a BOP sweep of the MDC prison resulted in notes being confiscated from his prison cell with incriminating evidence.

Diddy faces new allegations of jury manipulation through a planned social media event involving his family while awaiting trial for sex trafficking and racketeering.

A federal judge rejected Sean “Diddy” Combs’s request for a gag order aimed at silencing potential witnesses and their lawyers, citing the need to safeguard free speech.

Diddy is pressing a judge to order prosecutors to identify alleged victims in his racketeering case, insisting he cannot mount a defense.
