Sean “Diddy” Combs will remain behind bars until his sex trafficking trial in May 2025. The defense’s third attempt to free the 54-year-old music mogul was rejected on Wednesday. It’s been an eventful two weeks in the federal case against the founder of Bad Boy Records.

U.S. District Judge Arun Subramanian agreed that the government has presented “clear and convincing evidence” that “no condition or combination of conditions will reasonably ensure the safety of the community” if he were released. The judge cited the “nature and circumstances of the offense charged,” the “weight of the evidence” against the music mogul, Combs’ “history and characteristics” and “the nature and severity of the danger that would result from the release of the person. “

Combs was denied bail twice before: Combs’ lawyers then proposed a detailed $50 million package in hopes of freeing their client. The latest offering included house arrest with GPS monitoring in a New York City apartment, an approved list of guests — reportedly not allowing female visitors except family members — and 24/7 monitoring of Combs by private security. The government has strongly opposed this because it has accused Combs of witness tampering, even behind bars, and believes he is a danger to others.

In his written decision, Subramanian cited the allegations laid out in the federal indictment against Combs. For decades, Combs “allegedly abused, threatened and coerced women and others around him to fulfill his sexual desires, protect his reputation and conceal his behavior. To do this, (Combs) relied on the employees, resources and influence of the multi-faceted business empire he led and controlled – creating a criminal enterprise whose members and associates engaged in and attempted to participate in, among other things, sex trafficking, forced labor, kidnapping, arson, bribery and obstruction of justice.”

Combs has pleaded not guilty to all charges.

Subramanian also wrote “there is compelling evidence of Combs’ propensity for violence,” while referencing the 2016 video footage in which the rapper appears to beat ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura. Combs publicly apologized after hotel surveillance video of the incident was leaked earlier this year.

The judge has yet to rule on Combs’ jail notes, which were the subject of a heated hearing last week. Prosecutors gained access to them following an October 28 sweep of the Metropolitan Detention Center (MDC) in Brooklyn, NY. The government claimed this showed the entrepreneur was trying to pay off jailhouse witnesses. Combs’ defense team argued that the notes viewed were “privileged attorney-client material” and incorporated into the defense’s legal strategy.

Subramanian said at the Nov. 19 hearing that he would investigate whether the notes contained privileged information, which could take weeks, but that he would not consider the notes when deciding the bail issue. However, he had some questions for the defense during the Nov. 22 hearing about whether the defense had retroactively written “legal” on the notes in question. The defense team said it was trying to figure out when some banknotes said “legal,” according to the Inner City Press.

Combs remaining behind bars is no surprise. Legal experts previously told Yahoo Entertainment that it was likely the judge would uphold the previous rulings as the circumstances have not drastically changed.

On September 16, Combs was arrested by federal agents at a Manhattan hotel and charged with racketeering, sex trafficking and transportation to engage in prostitution. He also faces a series of civil lawsuits alleging sexual assault, but has maintained his innocence.
