The legal situation surrounding Sean 'Diddy' Combs is becoming increasingly tense. In addition to the charges of sexual abuse and rape against him, there are the various statements from those involved in his legal process. It is for this reason that Combs, through his legal team, has asked the judge to apply a kind of 'gag order' and thus limit public interventions.
According to TMZ, 'Diddy' Combs is upset by the continued media appearances of Courtney Burgess, one of the witnesses, who has given several statements to the press. Therefore, the artist's defense is now asking that the words of those involved in the process be restricted outside the courtroom.
Burgess is reportedly one of the people who have seen videos or witnessed scenes where Combs is in raunchy situations. For the moment, the music producer's defense has denied this and describes Burgess' information as false and an attempt to increase pressure on his client, who is in the authorities' crosshairs.
Combs awaiting trial
Be that as it may, the fact is that the process against Combs continues and, at the same time, the accusations against him have continued to pile up. However, his legal team is focused on trying to prove that Sean 'Diddy' Combs will not have a fair trial due to current pressures.
The artist has been in custody since September and several victims have come forward to share their testimony. Combs is charged with extortion, sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion and transportation for prostitution. He remains awaiting trial at the MDC in Brooklyn.
