The Diddy Diaries

Devils Advocate Series: Why The Jury Should Ignore the Obstruction Spin (Part 3)


Listen Later

Sean “Diddy” Combs and his defense team have aggressively pushed back on the obstruction narrative, framing his behind-bars communications and jailhouse notes as legitimate, constitutionally protected efforts to prepare his defense—not criminal interference. They argue that the handwritten notes seized from his cell were clearly privileged attorney‑client strategy documents, and their confiscation violated both his rights and the sanctity of legal defense communications.   ombs' attorneys also note that his outreach to family and friends—whether through monitored jail calls or coordinated social media campaigns around his birthday—was positioned as a freedom-of-speech response to what they describe as a flood of "outrageous" allegations, including those from plaintiffs’ attorneys and government agents.


In court, the defense has consistently argued that none of these actions meet the legal threshold for “acting corruptly,” a required element for obstruction charges. They emphasize that Combs’ efforts to counter narratives and organize support were tactical and defensive, not malicious or coercive.  Additionally, the defense maintains that the alleged use of other inmates' phone codes—interpreted by prosecutors as evasion—may have simple administrative explanations unrelated to witness tampering, and certainly do not signify a broader conspiracy to obstruct justice.   Throughout proceedings, they’ve urged that these points demonstrate both the overreach of the government’s position and the presence of legitimate, lawful defense activities.
