Summary
Diddy’s bail was denied primarily due to concerns that he might tamper with witnesses in his ongoing federal sex crimes case. The judge determined that the prosecution had provided sufficient evidence to indicate that no conditions could ensure community safety if Diddy were released.
During the bail hearings, Assistant U.S. Attorney Emily Johnson highlighted Diddy’s history of intimidating accusers and witnesses, asserting that text messages revealed his coercive tactics, which included forcing victims into sexual encounters he referred to as “freak offs.” Despite Diddy’s legal team presenting a $50 million bail proposal and attempts to demonstrate that he was not a flight risk, U.S. District Court Judge Andrew Carter cited the risk of witness tampering as a significant factor in his decision to deny bail. The judge’s ruling emphasized the seriousness of the charges against Diddy, which include racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking, and the potential for further victimization if he were released.
