Sean “Diddy” Combs will remain incarcerated ahead of his May 2025 trial, Judge Arun Subramanian ruled on Wednesday.
The Southern District of New York judge’s written ruling cited the rapper’s potential witness tampering and evident violations of jail regulations as his reasons for denying bail, according to court documents obtained by TheWrap.
“The court finds that the government has shown by clear and convincing evidence that no condition or combination of conditions will reasonably assure the safety of the community,” Subramanian determined.
The music mogul has been held at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn following his September arrest. Diddy has pleaded not guilty to federal charges of racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking and transportation to engage in prostitution.
