Lawyers for Sean “Diddy” Combs have moved for a trial in its case of sex trading – their others such a request Within two weeks.
The 55-year-old music mogul’s defense team made the latest request after claiming “prosecution for prosecution” in a letter June 7 to Judge Arun Subramanian.
The defense claimed in the letter, obtained by people, that “the government has presented testimony as it knew or should have known was significantly falsely related to its accusations that Mr. Combs dangled Bryana Bongolan from the balcony in Cassie VenturaApartment in September 2016. ”
“Consequently, in order to avoid an unfair conviction in this case, the court would grant a trial,” continued the defense team.
Comb’s legal team then claimed that testimony from Ventura, 38 – stating that she saw Comb’s dingling Bongolan from a balcony – could not have been true, since text register is said to show that Ventura learned about the alleged incident after the fact.
“The incident, which is alleged, is disturbing and powerful evidence, and the government has used it to portray Mr. Combs into an extremely negative light, as an angry and dangerous man who scared MS Ventura and her friends,” continued the defense team, while stating that Ventura’s story about the event is “detective.”
The defense team also claimed that the indictment then presented photos of the injuries that Bongolan has suffered from the balcony event that is alleged to have been taken on September 26, 2016 in Los Angeles.
The defense stated that the prosecution knew “or should have known that this testimony was injured”, which “the government has long known” that Combs was in New York City between September 24 to September 29 of that year.

The defense team further claimed that the prosecution “repeatedly tried to interfere” the defense’s questionnaire when the defense tried to “reveal the pest in cross investigation.”
“All this was very inappropriate and aggravated the injury caused by (…) the damaged testimony,” Comb’s legal team pronounced before he added that “the balcony event is just an example of prosecution during this trial.”
The first step for a trial from Comb’s legal team occurred at the end of May, after prosecutors asked Los Angeles Fire Department Arson Investigator Lance Jimenez about fingerprint certificates related to the bombing of Kid Cudi’s car had been destroyed. Prosecutors also asked who may have approved the destruction.
Comb’s lawyers claimed that the issue could potentially mean the idea that Combs could buy out of problems.
“They tried to plant this idea to these lawyers that Mr. Combs approved this,” said defense lawyer Alexandra Shapiro at that time.
Judge Subramanian denied the defense’s first proposal and decided that the issues were not harmful.
