Tuesday, October 01, 2024 - Music mogul, Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ attorney is planning to file a third appeal for his release from prison a fortnight after his arrest.
According to court documents obtained by People on Monday,
Alexandra Shapiro from Combs’ legal team filed a notice to appeal after Combs
was denied bail two times.
The music mogul was arrested on September 16 at a hotel in
Manhattan.
The next day, a 14-page document was released that explained
the accusations against him. Combs is accused of organizing multiple events
known as “freak offs” which were described by prosecutors as elaborate sex
performances. He is also accused of drugging and sexually assaulting his
victims.
On September 18, Combs was denied bail for the second time.
He is being held at Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center.
The judge who denied bail, Magistrate Judge Robyn F
Tarnofsky, said she was concerned about Combs' alleged substance abuse and
anger issues. She also said she did not trust him not to harm others.
Meanwhile, Combs, who has pleaded not guilty to the charges
against him, has been removed from precautionary suicide watch while being
jailed, according to People sources. One tipster also noted to the publication
that he had received a visit from his family in the prison.
“He is focused and very strong,” a lawyer for Combs told
People. “He is concentrating on his defense and preparing for his trial.”
Combs’ next court appearance is on October 9.
