The surveillance footage was <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2024\/05\/17\/entertainment\/video\/sean-diddy-combs-cassie-venture-surveillance-digvid\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">published by CNN in May<\/a>, prompting Mr. Combs to <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2024\/05\/19\/arts\/music\/sean-combs-diddy-cassie-assault-video-response.html\" title=\"\">apologize publicly for \u201cinexcusable\u201d behavior<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">It has never been clear how the footage made its way to the news organization, but in the court filing on Wednesday, lawyers for Mr. Combs, who has pleaded not guilty and has vehemently denied the criminal charges, accused the Department of Homeland Security, which executed raids of the defendant\u2019s homes in March, of being responsible for the leak.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cThe videotape was leaked to CNN for one reason alone: to mortally wound the reputation and the prospect of Sean Combs successfully defending himself against these allegations,\u201d the lawyers, Marc Agnifilo and Teny Geragos, wrote.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-1\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The court filing cited a <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.justice.gov\/archives\/jm\/criminal-resource-manual-156-disclosure-matters-occurring-grand-jury-department-justice-attys\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">federal rule of criminal procedure<\/a> that prohibits prosecutors or government agents from disclosing matters occurring before a grand jury.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The lawyers did not cite direct evidence that Homeland Security officials had leaked the tape. But they accused the agency of a series of leaks, including in anonymous comments to The New York Post, that they said \u201call but ensured\u201d that the grand jury and a potential trial jury would be tainted. The lawyers asked for a hearing to determine the government\u2019s culpability in the leaks.<\/p>\n<div class=\"css-1336jj\">\n<div class=\"css-121kum4\">\n<div class=\"css-asuuk5\"><noscript><\/p>\n<div class=\"css-7axq9l\" data-testid=\"optimistic-truncator-noscript\"><svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"css-1b5b8u1\"><path fill=\"currentColor\" fill-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M2.5 12a9.5 9.5 0 1 1 19 0 9.5 9.5 0 0 1-19 0Zm8.5 1.75v-7.5h2v7.5h-2Zm0 2v2h2v-2h-2Z\" clip-rule=\"evenodd\"\/><\/svg><\/p>\n<div data-testid=\"optimistic-truncator-noscript-message\" class=\"css-6yo1no\">\n<p class=\"css-3kpklk\">We are having trouble retrieving the article content.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-3kpklk\">Please enable JavaScript in your browser settings.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/noscript><\/p>\n<div class=\"css-1dv1kvn\" id=\"optimistic-truncator-a11y\" tabindex=\"-1\">\n<hr\/>\n<p>Thank you for your patience while we verify access.
