Sean Combs’ sex trafficking case has been assigned to a new judge after he was denied bond twice. Combs was arrested in NYC on Sept. 16 following a grand jury indictment.
After Combs was initially denied bond on Sept. 17, his case was randomly assigned to Judge Andrew Carter on Sept. 18. Carter also denied Combs’ bond and ordered him held in jail until his trial in 2025.
Combs retained 2 new attorneys who specialize in filing appeals cases. He filed a third request for bond last week.
On Thursday, the court docket showed the case was reassigned to Judge Arun Subramanian. No reason was given for Judge Carter’s removal from the case.
According to Allhiphop.com, court reporter Meghann Cuniff said Carter frequently recuses himself from cases because his wife is a lawyer for the Bank of New York Mellon and worked for JPMorgan Chase. Judge Carter reportedly hinted at recusing himself during Combs’ Sept. 18 bail hearing.
Combs’ supporters saw the judge’s removal as a “win” for the music mogul. They say Judge Carter was unfairly biased against Combs because Carter, who is Black, was nominated by former President Barack Obama back in 2011.
Obama has not commented on his former pal Sean Combs’ legal case.
An old interview with Combs and Obama resurfaced on X.com. In the video, Combs apologized to the former president, who is sweating profusely.
“And I want to apologize. I ain’t trying to make you look bad… but I’m just so cool,” Combs told Obama.
It’s not clear why Obama was perspiring so heavily.
?lol ?… Obama wants to thank P. Diddy for the kind of work he’s doing ???
?because it’s so important!
?it would be a shame if this video got shared … all over X
? You know what to do?

Todd Christopher Guzze, the publisher of Kim Porter’s alleged memoir, claims Combs flew some of the freak off videos out of the country on a private jet.
It is possible that Combs is being held without bond until the feds obtain all of the videos from him.
The Author of Kim Porter’s Tell All Book says he has shocking Diddy tapes that will shutdown the Music industry and Hollywood and reveals he plans to give them to the Federal Government.

Combs is being sued by 120 additional “victims” in Texas, Georgia and California.
Houston attorney Tony Buzbee claims he was contacted by over 3,000 people who alleged abuse by Combs. He vetted all of the people and settled on representing 120 of them. His clients include a man who said he was only 9 when the abuse occurred.
Combs has emphatically denied the latest allegations.
