Aug. 4 Sean «Diddy» Combs will remain in jail for sentencing on Oct. 3 after a federal judge denied the hip-hop mogul bail Monday.
In Manhattan, District Judge Arun Subramanian said Combs, 55, is a flight risk and a danger to the community. The judge noted the violence he exhibited on 2016 hotel surveillance footage that shows him kicking and dragging Cassie Ventura.
«Combs fails to satisfy his burden to demonstrate an entitlement to release», Subramanian wrote in his opinion.
Combs has been incarcerated at the jail in Brooklyn since his arrest after a home raid in March last year.
On July 2, a jury found him guilty of two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution after a two-month trial. Each of those counts carries a maximum sentence of 10 years. The judge denied bail then.
The prosecution, in a letter to the judge, recommends at least 51 to 63 months in prison.
