Diddy Combs denied bail, stay behind bars to condemn

Judge Arun Subramanian heard arguments from public prosecutors and the defense team of Combs hours after the jury had returned her mixed judgment.

Prosecutors claimed that the founder of Bad Boy Records was a threat to witnesses who have testified against him in the last eight weeks.

The Combs defense team asked that he was released on a secure bond of $ 1 million, depending on his surrender of his passport and limited transport to New York, New Jersey, California and Florida while waiting for his conviction.

In his statement, Subramanian said that the circumstances of Combs did not justify the exceptions set out in the Bail Reform Act.

According to the Bail Reform Act, a defendant must prove that he is not an escape risk or a danger to the community in their release.

He also noted that he did not grant Combs Bail before the process and saw no reason to grant him bail after the mixed verdict.

The persecution has submitted two letters, including one of ex-girlfriend and witness to Cassie Ventura’s lawyer Doug Wigdor, that combs did not meet those exceptions.

The letter from Wigdor underlined a part of the Bail Reform Act and said that detention is “mandatory” after convictions about the charges of the Mann ACT. The Mann ACT is a federal law that prohibits the interstate or foreign transport of individuals with a view to prostitution.

The lawyer repeated public prosecutors and his client, “believes that Mr Combs is probably a danger to the victims who in this case testified, including himself, as well as for the community.”

Public Prosecutors also submitted a letter from the former stylist Deonte Nash of Combs, who encouraged the judge to keep the rapper in custody and claimed that he is “a serious and immediate threat to victims, witnesses and the wider community.”

Nash’s letter stated: “Many of us have first -hand knowledge of the fear he teaches in the people around him.

“I can say without hesitation that he is a serious and immediate threat to victims, witnesses and the wider community.

“His pattern of violence, especially while he deals with the trade in individuals for prostitution, combined with uncontrolled substance abuse, makes it clear that he is not ready to enter society safely or responsible.”

Combs now stays in custody at the MDC until its hearing, which is planned for this fall.

Judge Subramanian ordered the parties to return to the court for conviction on 3 October; However, the date can be moved if the Combs team chooses to speed up the process.

With two crime orders for transport to enter into prostitution, Combs is confronted with 10 years behind bars for each count.

His defense team is looking for a penalty of 21 to 27 months behind bars for the first perpetrator, while the prosecution searches for 51 to 63 months in prison.
