Lawyers for Sean 'Diddy' Combs say prosecutors engaged in “outrageous government conduct” by using materials seized from his jail cell ahead of his trial.
Lawyers for Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs accused prosecutors on Monday of engaging in “outrageous government conduct” by using materials seized from his jail cell to try to keep him incarcerated before a May trial.They said information gathered in a raid on Combs' cell at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn were cited in papers the government filed in Manhattan federal court on Friday in a bid to keep the music mogul locked up before his May 5 trial.
They added that any potentially privileged materials were viewed first by a “filter team” of government lawyers not working on the case. The team was tasked with weeding out any confidential communications protected by attorney-client privilege so that trial prosecutors couldn’t see them.Combs, 55, has been held since his September arrest on charges that he coerced and abused women for years with the aid of a network of associates and employees.
