Diddy Compares Himself to Donald Trump To Get Out of Prison

Sean “Diddy” Combs is so desperate to come home for Thanksgiving that he compared himself to Donald Trump in a new strange court filing.

Diddy’s lawyers referenced Trump in an attempt to respond to counterclaims from prosecutors that the musical mogul tried to influence potential jurors in his sex-trafficking case via online public relations.

Diddy’s lawyers quoted an appellate decision in Trump’s case for election inference, which asserted that under the First Amendment, defendants have broad free-speech rights. In the filing, Diddy’s team quoted, “Only a significant and imminent threat to the administration of criminal justice will support restricting Mr. Trump’s speech.”

This means that, according to the eight-page filing, Diddy, like Trump and any other federal criminal defendants, should have more of a constitutional claim “to criticize and speak out against the prosecution and the criminal trial process that seek to take away his liberty.”

“Accordingly, the Court should apply Trump’s heightened standard when considering Mr. Combs’ speech here,” the filing additionally says.

If Diddy remains incarcerated, he won’t be having a grand feast like he’s probably used to. According to a menu obtained from the Metropolitan Detention Center Brooklyn, Diddy will receive a 4PM dinner of peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, potato chips, fruit, and whole bread.

Diddy’s previously requested bail three times — with his latest being on Nov. 22. Diddy and his legal team are requesting that the music mogul be placed on house arrest at a three-bedroom apartment he owns on Manhattan’s Upper East Side.

One of Diddy’s problems in getting bail stems from his infractions of the Bureau of Prison’ telephone regulations, and using unauthorized methods of communication, including text messages to a witness who allegedly took part in his Freak-offs. Diddy has stopped using these methods of communication after legal reps asked him to quit.

In response to the filing by Diddy’s lawyers, the prosecutors wrote that Trumps judges, “faced the unique task of balancing the right of a current candidate for the presidency to speak publicly about his charges against the public’s right in a fair trial.”
