Diddy’s Lawyers Accuse Prosecutors Of Altering Cassie Footage & Using Misleading Evidence

by

Diddy continues to face an uphill legal battle in his federal case for alleged sex trafficking, and the stakes are raising for both sides of the court. Moreover, this debacle concerns the defense’s attempts to secure bail, for which they recently filed their reply in support of said request according to journalist Meghann Cuniff, who provided a PDF of the legal filing. They allege that prosecutors altered the footage of the Bad Boy mogul assaulting Cassie in a hotel room for the first bail hearing, and that they used misleading evidence in support of their allegations. This relates to the prosecution’s claim that Sean Combs attempted to tamper with witnesses and manipulate the trial for himself.

As you can probably tell, the Diddy case now finds itself in a very dangerous situation. Basically, both sides of the court launched allegations at one another that could seriously jeopardize their credibility, legality, level of trust, and legitimacy. Still, the court has yet to make any significantly final judgements on any of these accusations, which will surely continue as the pre-trial and trial proceedings heat up in the near future.

Diddy’s Defense Team Continues Their Accusations Against The Prosecution

For example, there has been a lot of recent debate around whether or not prosecutors and the court are doing everything in their power to ensure they don’t violate Diddy’s rights. One of these questions circles around some photos that folks allegedly took of trial notes that authorities seized during a raid on his jail cell. However, again, it’s very possible that the court will eventually place blame on either the prosecution or the defense, and that both entities can’t emerge unscathed at the same time. In other words, it seems to not be a question about whether the court will find someone at fault, but rather who.

In fact, a lot of folks wonder whether Diddy can even have a fair trial in the first place, given just how large the scale of this scandal ended up becoming. Maybe his celebrity will work out in his favor during trial, or maybe it will be his downfall. Either way, the important thing to focus on is the evidence and the maintenance of a fair and just trial process.

LeBron James Barraged With Diddy Allegations From Conservative Haters

by

LeBron James recently announced a social media break on Twitter after speaking out against the constant negativity in the sports media world. Well, those weren’t his direct words, but he did retweet a message from Rick Kleiman about the topic, later letting followers know that he’s temporarily heading off the grid. “And with that said I’ll holla at y’all! Getting off social media for the time being. Y’all take care,” the NBA superstar shared. This prompted a lot of responses that baselessly connected him to the Diddy scandal, and many of them curiously came from more conservative individuals. We’re unaware of other contexts that maybe caused this specific response, but it was an odd phenomenon to witness.

Of course, LeBron James probably isn’t worried about any of that stuff, as he has other pressing extracurricular matters to attend off the court. They will lead some hate his way regardless thanks to his massive status, such as a lawsuit against him and Netflix for alleged copyright infringement. Many folks blasted this alleged move and brought more clowning out of it, but such is the nature of Internet discourse.

LeBron James Is Off Social Media: See Replies For Bizarre Diddy Connections

But LeBron James being off social media means we won’t have to hear about his bizarre dreams any more, which is surely a plus for many fans out there. “Just woke up from having a dream I was playing for Duke for Coach K inside Cameron Indoor Stadium!” he tweeted the other day. “It was INSANE in there. Told Coach K it was an honor to suit up for him and he said the same thing back to me. He’s such a LEGEND! Then….. It turned right into a concert. Snoop & Dre were the performers and they was doing the song ‘The Next Episode.’ The roof inside Cameron damn near came off! Haha. Then my [alarm] went off and I woke up.” Cool story, Bron…

Meanwhile, another possible cause for this social media break is some recent teasing around how much LeBron James spends on his body. But we have no idea why conservatives in particular would barrage him with this Diddy narrative over this social media break. We get that they’re peeved about the Kamala Harris endorsement, but still…

Meek Mill Goes Off On Outlets Spreading Salacious Rumors About Him & Diddy

by

Rumors of an alleged sexual relationship between Meek Mill and Diddy have been circulating for some time now. They were sparked back in February when producer Rodney “Lil Rod” Jones sued the Bad Boy founder for alleged grooming and more. In the lawsuit, Lil Rod alleges that Diddy had a sexual relationship with “a Philadelphia rapper who dated Nicki Minaj.” This eventually led to theories that he was referring to Meek Mill, which has not been confirmed.

Meek Mill has become a frequent target for online hate and clowning regardless, and he’s had enough. Earlier today, he took to X to respond to various reports that Diddy hosted a wild birthday party for him in 2014. “None of these publications are owned by black men posting things to destroy the names and brands of the culture! Ima stand on this I know it’s somebody behind this! Ima start a war behind it too when I find out!!!!” he captioned the post.

Meek Mill Declares War On Whoever Is Behind Diddy Rumors

Meek Mill continued, also arguing that there’s a “war on Black men” and slamming publications for spreading lies about him. “Just think about it you are waking up to a bunch of non black owned publication posting major lies about me! Where all the pr people go that was around me! Everybody see what’s going on I’m not gonna be quiet it’s was war on black men!” he wrote.

Meek Mill’s post comes just a few days after a clip of him went viral. In it, he seemingly shuts down rumors that he’s affiliated with Diddy in any way. “This is real life,” he says. “No Diddy gang. Meek Milly in real life. Don’t ever disrespect me.” This earned a reaction from one of Diddy’s sons, Justin Combs, who later made it clear that he was disappointed by the video. “Smh,” Justin wrote simply alongside a face-palm emoji following the viral moment.

Diddy Judge Has Questions About Trial Notes Allegedly Photographed During Jail Raid

by

Diddy is currently behind bars on charges related to alleged sex trafficking and racketeering. The Bad Boy founder is expected to go on trial in May of next year and could be hit with a hefty sentence if found guilty. For this reason, he has a lot of preparation to do. Recently, however, his legal team accused officials of raiding his jail cell and taking photos of his trial strategy notes and private correspondence with his lawyer. They argue that this allegedly violates his Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth Amendment rights.

“When we visit him in jail, we have lists,” Diddy’s attorney Marc Agnifilo explained in court, according to PEOPLE. “Everything in these pads are things we discuss. Trial strategy, who we should speak to, to undermine a witness’ credibility. We discuss everything with Mr. Combs.” Diddy and his team allege that his notebooks were labeled “legal,” indicating that they contained privileged information. In court yesterday, Judge Arun Subramanian ruled that none of these findings can be used as evidence, and ordered the protection to get rid of them.

Now, however, the judge has some follow-up questions. In a legal document shared by journalist Meghann Cuniff on X today, Judge Subramanian questions Diddy and his team’s allegations that the notebooks were labeled “legal.” He asks them “to address why this label doesn’t appear on the photographs in the Court’s possession,” and why it was not mentioned in their filing. He asks that the defense be prepared to explain themselves at a hearing scheduled for this Friday (November 22).

The judge’s latest request arrived amid a new slew of disturbing allegations against Diddy. In a lawsuit filed earlier today, for example, a former RoboCop stuntman recalls attending what he believed to be a music video audition in New York in 2001. Allegedly, after drinking a Diet Coke, he blacked out. Eventually, he woke up to Diddy allegedly sodomizing him.

Diddy Sued For Sexual Assault By Two New Alleged Victims

by

Diddy is currently awaiting trial behind bars. The disgraced mogul is being held at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn. This ensures that he cannot do any harm on the outside, but it has not stopped alleged victims from coming forward with harrowing Diddy stories. The Bad Boy founder has already had 120 sexual assault lawsuits filed against him in the last year. The number hiked up by two on November 19, however, thanks to attorney Tony Buzbee.

Buzbee, the man who is currently responsible for representing Diddy’s 120 accusers, came forth with two lawsuits on Tuesday. The first suit involved an unnamed woman who alleges that she was assaulted by Diddy in 2001. The woman claims that she was only 18 years old at the time. She encountered the mogul at a Halloween party in New York City. She alleges that she was escorted to a black SUV by Diddy’s bodyguards. The woman was reportedly given a drink that made her feel dizzy. She was then forced to perform oral sex on every single man in the vehicle. Jane Doe claims that Diddy sprayed her with champagne as she left the vehicle.

The second lawsuit, according to TMZ, occurred in 2022. The man claims Diddy drugged him while he attending one of the mogul’s house parties. He alleges the Bad Boy mogul laced his drink, which led to him losing consciousness. Once he woke up, Doe claims to have felt pain his rectum and in his anus. He went on to allege that he turned around and saw a naked and erect Diddy standing behind him and attempting to penetrate him. Doe claims he was ushered off the premises the following morning.

Both Jane and John Doe are seeking damages. Diddy’s attorneys issued a statement on Tuesday, the same day the new lawsuits were filed. The statement reasserts the mogul’s innocence in any matter pertaining to sexual assault. “Mr. Combs has full confidence in the facts and the integrity of the judicial process,” it read. “In court, the truth will prevail: that Mr. Combs never sexually assaulted or trafficked anyone — man or woman, adult or minor.”

Diddy Allegedly Has “Groupie” Inmates Fighting To Make His Prison Bed

by

The Diddy story continues to gain traction seemingly every week. Those who worked with the mogul, like Shyne, are reflecting on their time under his tutelage. Diddy’s alleged victims, meanwhile, are coming out with increasingly more heinous allegations of abuse. The Bad Boy mastermind is currently awaiting a May 2025 trial behind bars. According to journalist Toure, however, Diddy’s prison conditions are not as grave as some outsiders may believe. Toure claims that Diddy’s celebrity has actually translated well to the other inmates.

Toure broke down the bizarre happenings during an episode of his online show. He told viewers that the inmates at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn are actually fighting amongst each other for an opportunity to make Diddy’s bed. “According to someone who is in the unit that Diddy is not long ago,” the journalist stated. “There are groupies among the inmates who want to do special things for Diddy.” The honor of making the mogul’s bed is so serious, in fact, that Toure alleges that there’s tension and even jealousy among those who lose out on an opportunity to do so.

Diddy Is Reportedly Urging Other Inmates To “Smile”

Toure goes on to provide more information about Diddy’s living conditions. Instead of a cell, the reporter alleges that Diddy is in a “dorm” with 20 other men. “This is not a really dangerous part of the prison,” he added. The journalist then relayed information regarding the mogul’s general attitude. According to a prison employee, the Bad Boy founder has made a point of keeping “spirits high” during his time behind bars. “He goes around to people and he says smile,” Toure explained. “And he looks you right in the eye and tries to make you smile.”

Things have been less jovial on the outside. Diddy’s attorney, Marc Agnifilo, recently blasted the feds for performing a raid on the mogul’s cell. Agnifilo filed documents describing what he felt was “outrageous government conduct.” He also noted that the documents confiscated in the MDC cell raid were legally privileged and should not have been handed over to the prosecution. Agnifilo alleges that this was done in order to ensure that his client remain behind bars until his trial begins next year. The mogul’s request for a $50 million bond has already been denied.

Diddy Accuses Federal Police Of Raiding His Prison Cell And Taking His Trial Materials

by

Diddy and his defense team in his federal case for alleged sex trafficking continue to launch scathing accusations against the prosecution. According to new legal court documents reportedly obtained by TMZ, his attorney Marc Agnifilo accused federal authorities of raiding his prison cell at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn. Agnifilo claims they learned of this on Friday (November 15), and that police took attorney-client privileged material including notes about the upcoming trial from Sean Combs to his legal team about witnesses and strategies for the May court proceeding. Furthermore, his lawyer alleged that prosecutors already confessed to having notes from his jail cell from a search and seizure that the defense claims violates his Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth Amendment rights.

In addition, Diddy’s legal team accused the prosecution of denying him bail and keeping him in jail unjustifiably with this prison cell material that they reportedly seized. As such, his attorney wants a hearing to investigate this immediately and determine who authorized this alleged raid, who decided what to seize, who made the order to give materials to the U.S. Attorney’s Office and carried it out, who posited their delivery to prosecutors and fulfilled it, who chose not to tell him about it, and exactly what they took.

Diddy’s lawyer reportedly blasted this move, and federal authorities still haven’t addressed this at press time. This comes after prosecutors claimed he was trying to tamper with his federal case from prison, so the defense argues that this jail cell search violates his attorney-client privilege rights in order to combat this. Also, the government claimed the Bad Boy mogul sought to “subvert the integrity” of his trial. “This search and seizure are in violation of Mr. Combs’ [constitutional] rights,” Marc Agnifilo reportedly wrote, per Billboard. “The targeted seizure of a pre-trial detainee’s work product and privileged materials – created in preparation for trial – is outrageous government conduct amounting to a substantive due process violation.”

“This is a matter of grave concern that, most respectfully, must be addressed immediately,” Diddy’s attorney added. “Because the U.S. Attorney, and it seems the trial prosecutors, are currently in possession of privileged materials, we request a full evidentiary hearing as soon as the Court can accommodate us.”

Shyne Alleges He Spat In Diddy’s Face And Almost Sued Him Over Club Shooting

by

While Diddy waits for more updates in his federal case for alleged sex trafficking, Shyne continues to launch a lot of allegations against him. His more recent appearance was on The Breakfast Club, where he told folks that he once almost spat in Sean Combs’ face when he went to visit him in prison and almost sued him, as well. Moreover, for those unaware, the Belizean artist and politician claims that his Bad Boy boss turned him into the “fall guy” for a 1999 club shooting that resulted in the former serving almost nine years in jail. In addition, he’s promoting his new Honorable Hulu documentary, talking about the Puff Daddy situation and explaining how he feels betrayed.

But some don’t believe Shyne’s allegations about Diddy, including Funk Flex. “Now, Shyne, I see you being careful with your words, too,” the DJ remarked on-air during his Saturday night (November 16) program on Hot 97. “You’re tippy-toeing ’cause you don’t want me full blast on your face. […] Listen. You should get a bag of money for a bag of lies. I’m okay with that, bro. I’ma tell you, Shyne – punk. That’s what you are. You’re a punk.”

Meanwhile, here’s what Diddy had to say about these allegations from Shyne via a statement from his representative. “Mr. Combs categorically denies Mr. Barrow’s [Shyne’s] allegations, including any suggestion that he orchestrated Mr. Barrow to ‘take the fall‘ or ‘sacrificed’ him by directing witnesses to testify against him,” the statement read. “These claims are unequivocally false. Mr. Combs was acquitted of all charges related to the 1999 Club New York incident and has consistently maintained his innocence. He cannot accept or condone any characterization of his actions as ‘demonic’ or ‘malicious.’

“Mr. Combs appreciates the path Mr. Barrow has pursued and wishes him continued success,” Diddy’s statement about the Shyne allegations continued. “It is unfortunate that Mr. Barrow has chosen to revisit these allegations. Mr. Combs trusts that responsible journalism will weigh both the established legal outcomes and Mr. Combs’ positive, longstanding support for those he has worked with.” It looks like neither side will budge on their assessment of the tale, so we can expect this feud to continue.

Cassie’s Alleged Texts To Diddy After Hotel Assault Released By U.S. Government

by

The United States government recently released some alleged text messages relating to the federal trial of Diddy for alleged sex trafficking, according to an exclusive report from AllHipHop. Moreover, the messages are from Cassie to Sean Combs, and she allegedly sent them out after he assaulted her in a hotel room in Los Angeles in 2016. For those unaware, footage of this incident surfaced earlier this year. The singer’s lawsuit against the Bad Boy mogul emerged in late 2023 under the Adult Survivors Act, which he quickly settled before a barrage of other civil suits followed. The details of this settlement remain unknown to the public.

“I have a black eye and fat lip,” Cassie allegedly texted Diddy per the government’s disclosure. “You are sick for thinking it’s OK to do what you’ve done… I still have crazy bruising. […] I turn my head for a second, and you get f***ed up. And you drag me down the hall by my hair… I have bleeding cuts… You hit me in the head two good times. […] When you get f***ed up the wrong way, you always want to show me that you have the power and you knock me around. I’m not a rag doll. I’m someone’s child.”

Diddy publicly apologized for assaulting Cassie when CNN released the video earlier in 2024, remarking on his “inexcusable” behavior and emphasizing his turn to therapy. While the Los Angeles District Attorney’s Office did not prosecute this case due to it falling outside of the statute of limitations (or time elapsed), his abuse is a part of federal prosecutors’ allegations against him in his federal case for alleged sex trafficking.

As for other updates on Diddy, Shyne recently ruffled a lot of feathers by claiming he was the “fall guy” in the 1999 club shooting that left the Belizean artist in jail for almost nine years. He alleges that Puff Daddy was the one responsible, and this claim got a lot of pushback from folks like Funk Flex. Others believe there may be a point here. But these are all allegations, so take them with a grain of salt.

Uncle Luke Claims Jay-Z, Diddy & Kanye West Work With The System To Make Black People Villains

by

Uncle Luke is quite the outspoken hip-hop voice, and he recently took to social media to rant about the villainization of the Black community. Specifically, he seemed to argue that there are alleged systems in place that look to make successful Black people out to be villains in the culture, and even named Jay-Z, Kanye West, and Diddy as specific examples of Black superstars that formed part of these very same systems and contributed to the villainization of their community.

“LeBron James is a villain,” Uncle Luke began. “Why? Because he has all-Black representation. […] You guys don’t know, that’s how America works. I, Luther Campbell, I am a villain. I’m a bad guy. That’s why when you look at my profile, ‘bad boy of hip-hop.’ I will never get into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Puff Daddy was not a villain, he was one of them. Kanye West was one of them. Jay-Z was one of them. Biggie Smalls, a villain. Tupac, a villain. We all are villains. And until you people realize that as Black people in America, you are the villain. It’s black and white. You are the opposite of white. We will always be in competition with them. Y’all don’t hear me.”

Uncle Luke’s Rant About “Villains”

Of course, this is far from the first time that Uncle Luke has expressed his thoughts on these issues and similar ones. In fact, he recently spoke on the Diddy situation and claimed that he was “consumed” by drugs. So to hear this sort of assessment now is not very surprising, although many in the comments section of the Instagram post covering this above found plenty of room for debate and pushback concerning these remarks.

Meanwhile, Uncle Luke doesn’t just call out rappers for more serious fare, but also when he feels like he deserves some of their flowers, too. He took to social media earlier this year to ask female rappers for recognition and compensation for innovating the more lewd and party-centric style that they eventually came to prominence through. We can only wonder as to what hot take will emerge from the Miami rap icon.
