Diddy claims federal agents leaked info to media ahead of trial

In New York City, Sean "Diddy" Combs has been accused of serious charges including sex trafficking and racketeering conspiracy, following his arrest last month. The indictment stems from a lengthy investigation that involved raids on his residences in Miami and Los Angeles. Combs has pleaded not guilty to all allegations. His legal team argues that federal agents have leaked damaging information to the media, which they claim has influenced public perception and could jeopardize his right to a fair trial. A video from 2016, which allegedly shows Combs assaulting his then-girlfriend, has been cited in the indictment and was leaked to CNN earlier this year. The defense contends that such leaks have created a prejudicial environment that could taint the jury pool. In response to these developments, Combs has requested a speedy trial, suggesting a date in April or May 2025, to which the government has not objected. The case is currently ongoing, with Combs being held without bail as he awaits his next court appearance.
