The Sean “Diddy” team currently defends itself with all means against the serious allegations that come to light in the course of ongoing criminal proceedings against the hip-hop star-and the focus is now on a statement by musician colleague Kid Cudi.
Cudi had previously stated that he was certain that Diddy was responsible for the arson attack on his Porsche in 2012. Background: Shortly before, Cudi had had a relationship with Diddy’s partner Cassie Ventura – which is said to have caused tensions between the two artists. In the process, Kid Cudi explained in relation to the attack: “I knew that he had something to do with it.”
Diddy’s apology came years later
But Diddy’s lawyers now demand that this passage is completely removed from the process. In new court documents that are available “TMZ”, his defense team argues that there is no evidence that Combs connected directly to the incident. According to the team, it is just Cudi’s personal opinion – supposedly legally unsustainable and unfair to the accused.
According to Kid Cudi’s statement, there is no stuff: inside, no fingerprints, no surveillance videos or other evidence. When Cudi addressed the rapper directly about the incident at the time, he denied the crime according to the saying. However, Cudi didn’t believe him. According to the report from “TMZ”, he said Diddy met again years later and apologized with the words: “Sorry for the whole bullshit.”
However, according to Diddy’s defenders, this alleged admission of guilt is nothing more than a vague memory – legally supposedly meaningless, especially since there was never a clear confession.
Supposedly has “no place in a fair procedure”
“The entire passage is speculative, emotionally colored and has no place in a fair procedure,” said Diddy’s defense via “TMZ”. The court is therefore to be deleted completely from the protocol to prevent the jury from being influenced.
It is still unclear whether the judge will meet this claim. One thing is certain: The team of Sean “Diddy” Combs wants to clear this part of the procedure as quickly as possible.
