As per new reports, Diddy has allegedly tried to influence a potential jury after planning to use his children for a 'social media campaign' around his birthday on November 4th.
On Nov 4, Combs's son Justin (30) shared a reel on Instagram that featured him and his six siblings as they called Combs and wished him a happy birthday. In the clip, the rapper thanked his children for being supportive.
In new case documents filed on Nov 15, the prosecutors have accused the music mogul of contacting witnesses. A review of his recorded calls from jails has proved that he has asked his family members to contact and influence witnesses to create narratives to help him get bail. Prosecutors also claimed that the rapper has used other inmates' phones to contact the people he's not allowed to speak with.
According to recent court documents obtained by People, he has also orchestrated social media campaigns and made efforts to publicly leak materials that will be helpful in his case.
He has used a "non-authorized third-party messaging service" to reach out the multiple people. He has also directed others to pay the inmates.
"...While attempting to evade law enforcement monitoring, the defendant has, among other things, orchestrated social media campaigns that are, in his own words, aimed at tainting the jury pool; made efforts to publicly leak materials he views as helpful to his case; and contacted witnesses through third parties," the document alleges as per People, "For these reasons, the Court should deny the defendant a new bail hearing."
No statement has been released by his lawyers yet.
However, recently Diddy's team has proposed a $50 million bail package backed by his Florida mansion after being denied bail three times. In September, he was taken into custody with accusations of sex trafficking and prostitution among other serious charges.
