COURTHOUSE,
Oct 9 – At 4:30 pm on
September 16 Inner City Press
was told by its SDNY source to
expect "the big one" - Sean
Combs - the next day in the
courtroom here.
At 10:30 pm, from
SDNY News, this: "USA Damian
Williams: Earlier this
evening, federal agents
arrested Sean Combs, based on
a sealed indictment filed by
the SDNY. We expect to
move to unseal the indictment
in the morning and will have
more to say at that time."
At US Attorney
Damian Williams' press
conference Inner City Press
asked if his office would be
seeking detention - Yes, he
said. Detention memo on
Patreon here.
In the run-up to
the 2:30 pm hearing Combs'
counsel file a bail proposal,
with $50 million bond - filing

On September 30,
Combs' lawyers filed a notice
of appeal of detention to the
2d Circuit.
On October 3,
Combs' SDNY criminal case was
re-assigned: "Case as to Sean
Combs REASSIGNED to Judge Arun
Subramanian. Judge Andrew L.
Carter, Jr no longer assigned
to the case."
On October 9
after 5 pm, Combs' lawyer
submitted a request for "(1)
an evidentiary hearing to
examine government misconduct
in connection with the leaks;
(2) discovery of emails,
documents and records in the
possession of the government
(including DHS) related to
these leaks; (3) a gag order
prohibiting government
personnel from disclosing any
evidence or investigative
material related to this case
to any member of the media;
and (4) suppression of any
evidence leaked by government
employees in violation of
Federal Rule of Criminal
Procedure 6(e) or any other
law, rule, or regulation."
