Throughout, there was a common theme: the defendant repeatedly and consistently forced and coerced women to satisfy his sexual desires. Often behind closed doors, the defendant engaged in acts of violence against women, including throwing them to the ground, dragging them by their hair, kicking, shoving, punching, and slapping them. He manipulated, coerced, and extorted women, including by plying them with drugs, threatening to withhold financial support, and threatening to disseminate sex tapes that the defendant had made of their sexual encounters. He intimated women, including by displaying firearms, threatening them, showing up at their homes unannounced, and attempting to beat down the door\u2014on one occasion with a hammer. Beyond his romantic partners, the defendant also physically abused his personal staff. Former staff members have described the defendant threatening to kill them, throwing objects at them, and being struck, punched, and shoved by the defendant, and seeing him do the same to others.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>This significant history of violence must be taken into account when viewing the defendant obstructive activity. Taken together, there can be no doubt that the Government has proven the defendant\u2019s dangerousness by clear and convincing evidence.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\tAfter a sometimes rough-going hearing at New York\u2019s Daniel Patrick Moynihan Courthouse on November 22 in the third attempt by Combs\u2019 lawyers to get him sprung with a $50 million bail package, the judge told all parties he wanted \u201cfurther submissions\u201d by 9 a.m. PT Monday before making a decision.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\tWith conflicting accounts of what really went down during an alleged pre-planned raid a few week ago on Combs\u2019 cell at the Metropolitan Detention Center, the ruling from Subramanian on whether Combs could get bail and end up under 24\/7 security surveillance\u00a0in a three-bedroom Upper East Side apartment is expected any time before Thanksgiving.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\tAlthough the defense has an inclination to link itself to some of Donald Trump\u2019s more recent legal battles, today they are very much planting a flag of family and free speech for their client.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\t\u201cFor months and months, government agents, plaintiffs\u2019 attorneys, and others with questionable motives have been polluting the airwaves with false and outrageous claims about Mr. Combs,\u201d the <a href=\"https:\/\/deadline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/combs-defense-nov-25-bail.pdf\">eight-page correspondence<\/a> signed by attorneys Alexandria Shapiro, Mark Agnifilo and Teny Geragos exclaims.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\t\u201cThis nonstop drumbeat of negative publicity has destroyed [Combs\u2019] reputation and will make it virtually impossible for him to receive a fair trial. Mr. Combs is not required to sit idly by and acquiesce to all of this. He has a right to a fair trial and a constitutional right to speak out on his own behalf,\u201d they add in terms used in previous filings. \u201cThe government\u2019s arguments that asking his children to post birthday wishes on Instagram and that he is not entitled to publicly express his opinion that this prosecution is racially motivated are, quite simply, an unconstitutional effort to silence him.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\tThe defense says: \u201cThe government is essentially arguing for a standard in which the entire Press community \u2014 and civil plaintiffs and the government itself \u2014 can wage war against Mr. Combs\u2019 reputation but Mr. Combs can\u2019t even try to influence public opinion himself in response. That is simply not the law.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\tFiling after the defense this morning, the slightly redacted <a href=\"https:\/\/deadline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/combs-sdny-nov-25-bail.pdf\">document<\/a> from Williams \u2014 who is soon to be replaced by Trump appointee Jay Clayton \u2014 for the most part sidesteps constitutional issues and rips the defense team led by Agnifilo and Geragos for the lack of \u201cmeaningful guardrails\u201d in place in this latest swing at bail for Combs.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\tThe SDNY USAO also hit hard at \u201cdefense counsel\u2019s blas\u00e9 attitude toward breaking these rules while simultaneously asking this Court to release their client.\u201d They added this \u201cdoes not give the Government any confidence that counsel will be able to police the defendant\u2019s conduct with any rigor.\u201d And, with what would be called a hard kick in any bar fight, it went on to say: \u201cIndeed, contrary to representations by counsel just days ago, the defendant has <em>continued to engage <\/em>in unauthorized communications with family members from the MDC by using another inmate\u2019s ContactMeASAP account as recently as yesterday.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\tWhile a bit more inside baseball than other comments the U.S. Attorney\u2019s office made in its 13-page letter Monday, the prosecution\u2019s assertion of the shell game being played by the defense may prove the most damning in any bail determination.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\t\u201cAfter defense counsel represented unequivocally at the prior bail hearing before Judge Carter that the defendant would not reach out to grand jury witnesses, it became clear that the defendant had done just that: phone records and electronic evidence shows that the defendant contacted Witness-1 repeatedly leading up to and after his appearance in the grand jury, and then the defendant apparently deleted the messages from his phone,\u201d they stated, with reference to Combs\u2019 ex-longtime girlfriend Cassie Venture (aka Witness-1), who sued him for abuse and rape in a short live suit last year that was settled in 24 hours for around $30 million.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\t\u201cFinally, it cannot be ignored that the defendant\u2019s proclivity for obstruction appears to have continued as recently as last week in court, when it appeared that the defendant provided <em>falsified documents to the Court <\/em>during a hearing convened to address his accusations of Government misconduct,\u201d the feds added of Combs\u2019 accusation that documents and notes labeled \u201clegal\u201d had been improperly taken and photographed by MSC staff during the raid on his cell and locker.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\tSplaying egg all over the face of the defense, it turned out a number of those pages didn\u2019t actually have the term \u201clegal\u201d on them on the original documents \u2014 a fact that out and out pissed off Subramanian last week.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\tAcknowledging the error, as it were, of papers not labelled \u201clegal\u201d and then suddenly labeled \u201clegal\u201d in the November 22 hearing, the defense was noticeably silent on the issue today as well as over the more specific matters of obstruction raised by the government.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\tHowever, in a second filing after court hours Monday, the defense did say: \u201cMr. Combs objects to the government\u2019s submission to the extent it goes beyond responding to the Court\u2019s specific question, and requests that the Court not consider any new or repetitive information in the government\u2019s letter.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\tAll of which is saying, we plan to try to again if you deny us bail this time. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n
