WATCH THE VIDEO HERE Sean Diddy Combs’ attorneys filed an appeal for pretrial release in court yesterday. Alexander A.E. Shapiro wrote in his filing that Combs “was not released pending trial, even though he offered to comply with restrictive conditions that would have prevented any conceivable risk of flight or danger.” He claims that the court “rejected a plainly sufficient bail package” and that the denials “violated its obligations under the Bail Reform Act.” Diddy was denied bail twice. At the time, the judge claimed he was a flight risk and that he may use his influence to intimidate potential witnesses. Since Diddy’s arrest, more and more stories have been coming out about the dark side of the mogul. He allegedly tried to control others around him using violence, drugs, and blackmail. “Mr. Combs is presumed innocent. He traveled to New York to surrender because he knew he was going to be indicted,” the filing continued. “He took extraordinary steps to demonstrate that he intended to face and contest the charges, not flee. He presented a bail package that would plainly stop him from posing a danger to anyone or contacting any witnesses. Under the Bail Reform Act, ‘liberty is the norm, and detention prior to trial or without trial is the carefully limited exception.’ “ Diddy’s next court date is set for tomorrow, October 10.
