Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs trial updates: Bail denied due to ‘propensity for violence’. ollowing comments from Sean Combs’ large defense team, attorney Marc Agnifilo said they will not be talking about the bail decision because it’s still a “pending, unresolved matter.” “The one thing I’m going to leave with this we are not nearly done fighting. We are just getting started,” he said. “To win this and to defeat the prosecutors from the Southern District of New York takes effort from beginning to end.” “Today was a major, major step in the right direction. But we fight on and we’re going to win and we’re not going to stop until he walks out of prison a free man to his family,” he continued. Sean Combs’ defense attorney, Marc Agnifilo, told reporters today is a “great day” while speaking outside the courthouse following the bail hearing. “They listened to every word, and they got the situation right, or certainly right enough,” he said. “They acquitted him of the sex trafficking, which he was absolutely innocent of. They acquitted him of the racketeering conspiracy that he was absolutely innocent of.” After defense attorneys asked for a more expedited sentencing, U.S. District Judge Arun Subramanian agreed to move up the sentencing date from October. He did not set a new date for the sentencing itself. For now, he set a remote conference for July 8 at 2 p.m. to hear arguments about next steps for pre-sentence process, including Combs’ interview with the court’s probation department.
