Sean ‘Diddy’ combs asks for more increased screen time amid ongoing abuse case

• Sean “Diddy” Combs, facing charges of sex trafficking, has requested more screen time in his cell.
• Combs faces charges of sex trafficking, racketeering, and sexual abuse.
• Combs and his legal team are preparing to seek a dismissal of the indictment.

Sean “Diddy” Combs is requesting more screen time while facing charges of sex trafficking. The rapper has filed a request with authorities to use his laptop in his cell.

Combs is facing the same prosecutor who helped convict Jeffrey Epstein’s associate, Ghislaine Maxwell and has had his bail request denied for the third time.

In a statement filed by officials fighting for the rapper in court, they wrote: “We write on behalf of Mr. Combs to request that the Court direct the MDC to provide Mr. Combs with the laptop prepared for him by the government and allow him to use that laptop on his unit, consistent with the way other inmates on his unit are permitted to use their laptops.”

The letter read: “Two months after he was charged and detained, on November 25, 2024, the government provided the MDC with a laptop that Mr. Combs can use to review discovery, take notes related to his case, and otherwise assist in his defense.”

Combs’ defense lawyer, Marc Agnifilo, who has previously represented high-profile clients like French presidential candidate Dominique Strauss-Kahn during his rape trial, wrote the statement.

Agnifilo also stated: “In the nine days since then, Mr. Combs has still not been provided with the laptop, despite numerous inquiries by defense counsel.”

Combs faces accusations of sex trafficking, racketeering, and sexual abuse. The trial for his criminal case is set to begin on May 5.

In response to the statement made by the defense lawyer, authorities stated, “These restrictions are untenable and, as far as we understand, not required of any other inmate on Mr. Combs’ unit.”

The prosecutor added in the response: “They significantly limit the time available for Mr. Combs to use the laptop and force Mr. Combs to choose between using the laptop and meeting with his attorneys (who often meet with Mr. Combs over video teleconference). There is also no justification for these restrictions.”

Diddy Combs and his legal team raised this new issue as they prepared to seek a dismissal of the indictment.
