The Mega Edition: The Memo In Law Supporting Diddy's Motion For A Hearing And Other Relief (Parts 1-2) (12/24/24)

Beyond The Horizon

In the case of United States v. Sean Combs (24-cr-542), the defense has filed a memorandum seeking a hearing, suppression of evidence, and other relief. The defense argues that government leaks have led to prejudicial pre-trial publicity, compromising Combs' right to a fair trial. They specifically allege that the Department of Homeland Security leaked a 2016 video showing Combs assaulting his then-girlfriend, Cassie Ventura, to tarnish his reputation. The defense requests an evidentiary hearing to investigate these leaks, discovery of related government communications, a gag order to prevent further disclosures, and suppression of any evidence obtained through these alleged leaks.
Additionally, the defense contends that the conditions of Combs' pre-trial detention hinder his ability to prepare for trial, infringing upon his constitutional rights. They propose a comprehensive bail package, including a $50 million bond secured by property and co-signed by family members, home detention with electronic monitoring, and strict limitations on communication and visitation. The defense asserts that these measures sufficiently mitigate any concerns regarding flight risk or danger to the community, emphasizing Combs' strong family ties and community involvement.
