DJ Envy is speaking out to defend Sean “Diddy” Combs and thinks the judge should give the jailed mogul bail.
Diddy remains locked up at Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center, where a judge has twice rejected the hip-hop mogul’s $50 million proposal.
“I don’t like the fact that they didn’t give him a bond,” said Envy. “He has three kids without a mom right. He has two twins that are 17 years old that don’t have their dad right now and probably won’t have their dad for the next two years until the trial is over. I feel like he should have got a bond and been able to fight this outside.”
Envy pointed out that Harvey Weinstein, Bill Cosby and OJ Simpson were all granted bond.
“OJ had a bond and people could say OJ ran. He took off and they chased him and he still had a bond. Now, in this society, it feels like you’re guilty and you have to prove yourself to be innocent but it should be the other way,” he continued.
Diddy is believed to be a flight risk as he has his own personal jet. Prosecutors also believe he could tamper with witnesses. Lisa Bloom, Dawn Richards’s attorney, has already accused Diddy of witness tampering.
