Diddy Accuses Government of Video Leak

Sean "Diddy" Combs' legal team is alleging that the federal government orchestrated the leak of a surveillance video showing him assaulting ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura, which has significantly impacted his ongoing criminal case. In a memorandum filed in U.S. Court, Combs' attorneys claim this leak, made to CNN, was intended to damage his reputation and impede his right to a fair trial. They are seeking an evidentiary hearing to investigate these claims of government misconduct and the potential suppression of evidence. Additionally, Combs' team has criticized the Department of Homeland Security for its aggressive raids on his properties and for allegedly leaking sensitive information to the media. The surveillance video, which surfaced in May, is a pivotal piece of evidence in the federal case against him for racketeering and sex trafficking. Combs has pleaded not guilty and maintains that he was not responsible for the leak.
