Sean “Diddy” Combs is facing claims of violating prison rules

The bad boy record producer, whose last million dollars bail proposal was denied, is facing new allegations of misconduct while behind bars. Prosecutors allege that Sean “Diddy” Combs used the phones of at least ‘eight other inmates and relied on an unauthorized third-party messaging service to contact multiple individuals, in addition to using his children’s birthday video for him as a campaign of sorts. The federal government further alleges that Combs “repeatedly” violated prison rules by engaging in unauthorized communications.

“While attempting to evade law enforcement oversight, the defendant has, among other things, orchestrated social media campaigns designed, in his own words, to corrupt the jury pool; has gone out of his way to publicly leak material he believes is helpful to his cause; and contacted witnesses through third parties,” prosecutors argued in Manhattan Federal Court, according to the NY Post.

Diddy’s staged birthday celebration

Earlier this month, P. Diddy’s birthday made headlines when his seven children: Quincy, Justin, Christian, Chance, D’Lila, Jessie and Loveappeared in a heartwarming video, singing and cutting a cake.

However, prosecutors now allege that Combs himself carefully orchestrated this seemingly authentic moment. He allegedly instructed his children to post the emotionally charged video to their respective Instagram accounts in the hope of influencing potential jurors in his upcoming trial. Diddy reportedly monitored the video’s online impact and discussed with his family how to maximize its effect. “At Defendant’s carefully crafted instructions, Defendant’s children posted a video to their respective social media accounts showing Defendant’s children gathered to celebrate Defendant’s birthday,” the prosecutor alleged, according to the Post.

Diddy accused of blackmailing victims and witnesses

Prosecutors allege Sean “Diddy” Combs violated prison rules by bribing inmates with retainer deposits and digital payments to gain access to their accounts. He also reportedly instructed his family and legal team to add others to calls over three-way connections, a banned tactic to conceal the identities of those involved.

The court documents highlight Combs’ repeated disregard for regulations, suggesting it raises questions about his willingness to follow the conditions of release.

Diddy, who is awaiting trial in 2025, is pushing hard to get bail, but prosecutors have made their intentions clear in a recent filing, accusing the entertainer of multiple prison misconducts, suggesting he tries to blackmail people and witnesses, either to keep them quiet or to catch them. to say things that will help his side.
