Judge Orders Destruction of Diddy's Handwritten Notes

News summary

In a significant development in Sean 'Diddy' Combs' ongoing legal battle, a judge has ordered federal prosecutors to destroy handwritten notes obtained during a raid at his jail cell, pending a decision on their use in his upcoming sex trafficking trial. U.S. District Judge Arun Subramanian ruled that the materials, which included defense strategy notes, were likely protected by attorney-client privilege, despite prosecutors arguing that they were not. The defense claimed the search violated Combs' constitutional rights, labeling it as 'outrageous' government conduct. As a result of this ruling, prosecutors will need to revise their strategy for the trial, which is set to begin on May 5. Combs faces serious charges including racketeering and sex trafficking, which he has denied. The case continues to unfold amid allegations of witness tampering and the violation of Combs' rights during the search.
