At Sean "Diddy" Combs' October 10, 2024 hearing, he appeared in Manhattan federal court before Judge Arun Subramanian. The session mainly involved setting deadlines for both the defense and prosecution to file their legal arguments in preparation for the upcoming trial, which is expected to take place in May of 2025.

Diddy remains in custody at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn. His defense continues to push for his release on bail, which has been denied multiple times due to concerns about witness tampering and flight risk. His legal team had previously offered a $50 million bail package, which included home detention and electronic monitoring, but it was rejected as the court considered him a potential danger to the community.

During Sean "Diddy" Combs' October 10, 2024, hearing, his legal team addressed concerns about potential media leaks related to evidence in his case. His attorneys requested that the court impose a gag order to prevent further leaks from law enforcement, which they claim have already influenced public perception and could affect the fairness of the trial. Diddy's team alleges that government agents leaked sensitive material, including a 2016 surveillance video, to the media, compromising his right to a fair trial. The judge has asked the sides to draw up acceptable language for the order.


The charges against Diddy include sex trafficking and racketeering, with allegations dating back to 2008. Prosecutors claim that he ran a criminal enterprise, coercing women with the help of his associates and using violence, blackmail, and other forms of intimidation to silence victims. The court appearance also allowed for both sides to discuss procedural aspects, such as evidence handling, and outline the next steps leading up to the high-profile trial. Diddy has pleaded not guilty to all charges
