Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ Shocking Jail Decision: Why the Judge Says He’s Too Dangerous to Walk Free
Prosecutors argued the Bad Boy Records founder posed a threat to witnesses who testified against him over the past eight weeks.
Combs’ defense team requested he be released on a $1million secured bond, subject to his surrender of his passport and limited transportation to New York, New Jersey, California, and Florida as he awaits his sentencing.
Under the Bail Reform Act, a defendant must prove they are not a flight risk or pose a danger to the community upon their release.
He additionally noted he did not grant Combs bail before trial and did not see a reason to grant him bail after the mixed verdict.
The prosecution submitted two letters, including one from ex-girlfriend and witness Cassie Ventura’s attorney Doug Wigdor, arguing Combs did not meet those exceptions.

The attorney echoed prosecutors and his client, “believes that Mr. Combs is likely to pose a danger to the victims who testified in this case, including herself, as well as to the community.”
