Sean “Diddy” Combs’ “Decades-Long Pattern Of Violence” Has To Be Factor In Latest Bail Consideration, Prosecutors Tell Judge

deadline.com:

The outgoing U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York warned a federal judge Monday to beware of bail efforts for Sean “Diddy” Combs, as the Bad Boy Records founder has an ongoing “history of obstructive conduct” and has “physically abused his personal staff.” Combs is charged with racketeering, sex trafficking and transportation to engage in prostitution.

The 55-year-old Grammy winner, who entered a not-guilty plea after his arrest September 16, is also facing a flood of civil suits filed almost daily centered on his celebrity-attended, drug-fueled and videotaped “freak offs.” He is looking at life in prison if found guilty in the criminal case in a trial set to start May 5.

In fact, citing the currently incarcerated Combs for “his decades-long pattern of violence,” Damian Williams’ office painted a picture today of the defendant for Judge Arun Subramanian that is far more vivid than almost anything we heard from the circumspect U.S.

Attorney so far.Over the years, the defendant’s physical and sexual abuse has taken many forms, often in the context of long-term romantic relationships.
