On November 19, 2024, Sean "Diddy" Combs appeared in federal court regarding the seizure of handwritten notes from his jail cell at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn. His defense argued that these notes, which detailed defense strategies and potential witnesses for his upcoming sex trafficking trial, were protected by attorney-client privilege. They contended that the seizure violated Combs' constitutional rights to a fair trial and against unreasonable searches. Prosecutors countered that the notes indicated attempts to obstruct justice by influencing potential witnesses.
In a ruling that day, U.S. District Judge Arun Subramanian ordered that the 19 pages of notes be excluded from consideration in Combs' upcoming bail hearing and directed that any copies be destroyed. This decision was seen as a legal victory for Combs, as it upheld the confidentiality of his communications with his legal team. Combs, who has pleaded not guilty to charges including racketeering and sex trafficking, remains in custody and is scheduled for a bail hearing on November 22, 2024.
