A judge denied Sean "Diddy" Combs' request for bail after the rapper pleaded not guilty to sex trafficking. Combs appeared in front of Robyn F. Tarnofsky in a Manhattan courtroom on Tuesday. The rapper entered the courtroom wearing a black T-shirt and khaki pants. He was not handcuffed nor were his feet shackled. After sitting down next to his attorney, Combs glanced around the courtroom and looked at the jury box. Diddy was charged with racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion, and transportation to engage in prostitution. He faces a minimum of 15 years behind bars or a maximum sentence of life in prison. Combs offered $50,000,000 bond as part of a proposed bail package, according to a letter submitted by his legal team Tuesday and obtained by Fox News Digital. In addition, Combs surrendered his passport to counsel on April 1. His mother, Janice, and children Chance, Jessie, D'Lila and Love Combs each surrendered their passports under the bail proposal. "Mr. Combs' travel will be restricted to the Southern District of Florida and the Southern District of New York (to attend Court, meet with his counsel, and attend medical appointments, which we will address to the Court in a separate, sealed, submission) as well as the Eastern District of New York or the District of New Jersey (only to the extent that his travel to and from New York involves an airport in those Districts)," the proposal stated. The defense also proposed the equity of Mr. Combs' residence on Star Island, which was appraised at $48,000,000, and the equity in his mother's home in Miami, Florida. Combs has attempted to sell his airplane since April 2024. "On May 21, 2024, counsel advised the AUSAs during a phone call that Mr. Combs had commenced efforts to sell his airplane," the proposal stated. Several potential buyers showed interest in purchasing the plane, with a "Letter of Intent" signed "just this weekend." The plane has not yet been sold. Defense agreed to keep the airplane in Los Angeles while Combs resided in Florida, if the aircraft was not being chartered. The night he was arrested, the airplane was chartered from Los Angeles to Teterboro, NJ without Combs' knowledge, nor did he "possess any control over its movement." "Obviously Mr. Combs agrees to not go to any state – in this case, New Jersey – in which his airplane is located pending its sale, which is actively being pursued," the proposal claimed. Combs also voluntarily relocated to New York on Sept. 5 ahead of his arrest, where his counsel then "immediately informed the government of Mr. Combs' whereabouts." His legal team offered to "continually share Mr. Combs' location with the government." The disgraced media mogul also offered home detention with GPS monitoring, and "all other standard conditions of pretrial supervision."
