West reiterated his stance on instagram, sharing a video call with diddy’s son, christian “king” combs, 26. “a son to his dad for every son who dad is locked up write [sic] Or wrong,” he captioned the post.
Diddy has been in custody since september 2024 after being indicted on federal charges. According to a 14-page indictment, he “abused, threatened, and coerced women and others around him” for decades.
The disgraced music mogul pleaded not guilty to all allegations before being remanded to brooklyn’s metropolitan detention center, where he awaits trial, scheduled to begin in may. Despite four separate appeals, he was denied bail.
Diddy’s attorney, marc agnifilo, criticized the prosecution in a statement to us weekly, saying, “we are disappointed with the decision to pursue what we believe is an unjust prosecution of mr.
Combs by the u.S. Attorney’s office.” he went on to defend his client’s legacy: “sean ‘diddy’ combs is a music icon, self-made entrepreneur, loving family man, and proven philanthropist who has spent the last 30 years building an empire, adoring his children, and working to uplift the black community. He is an imperfect person, but he is not a criminal.”
The statement concluded, “to his credit, mr. Combs has been nothing but cooperative with this investigation and he voluntarily relocated to new york last week in anticipation of these charges. Please reserve your judgment until you have all the facts. These are the acts of an innocent man with nothing to hide, and he looks forward to clearing his name in court.”
In addition to his criminal case, diddy is facing over 30 civil lawsuits from alleged victims of sexual assault and misconduct. He continues to deny all accusations.
