Sean “Diddy” combs does not deserve a new trial because “there was more than a sufficient basis” to support his conviction for two transport positions to participate in prostitution, federal prosecutors argued in a new judicial presentation overnight, presented in response to a defense motion of July 31 that requested acquisital or a new trial.
The lawyers of the combs, who did not declare themselves guilty on July 2 of more serious office and sexual trafficking positions, asked the judge for four weeks later to absorb him from the counts related to prostitution or grant him a new trial, arguing in part that Mann’s law, the law under which he was convicted, was condemned too widely interpreted to apply to him, that the evidence of his sentence was and that “he was injured was too convicted.” Introduced to support the charges in which combs were absorbed, it shows that the defense argued that “it would have been inadmissible” if the combs had been tried only under the Mann Law, it was “inflammatory.”

Combs did not dispute the hiring of male companions, but their lawyers argued in their Julio motion that the Mann law does not prohibit the behavior of the combs “because it lacked a commercial motive and did not intend that the paid escorts have sex with him”, rather to see them and record them the video with the brides in the sexual concessions referred to the testimony of trial as the assignments. They assign “, which care for those who serve them to the brides refer to the brides refer to the brides. activity.”
Prosecutors argued in their 58 -page response that the law does not distinguish between voyeurism and profits.
“Accompanied companions through the state lines to participate in strangers for payment. He directed the sexual activity of the companions and the victims throughout the fans of his own sexual gratification. And personally he participated in sexual activities during the strangers,” prosecutors on the combs on their presentation said. “There was more than a sufficient base, seeing evidence to the most favorable light for the government, to support the charges of conviction.”
The “monsters”, such as the ex -girlfriend of the combs, Cassie Ventura, testified that they were called and that another ex -girlfriend of the combs testified under the pseudonym “Jane” referred to as “hotel nights”, took place in different residences or in hotels in New York, Miami, Los Angeles, Atlanta, Las Vegas, Ibiza and Turks and Caicos, according to the trial trial.
“The companions traveled to these fans with Ventura and the hotel nights with Jane. The defendant discussed the trips of the companions with Ventura and Jane,” prosecutors said in their presentation, pointing even more than “the travel arrangements generally were made in the direction of the defendant”, including a travel agent, with a companion service, or by handling the arrangements of Ventura and “Jane.”
Combs is scheduled to be sentenced on October 3.
