That is not prostitution, and if it is, his conviction is unconstitutional,\u201d the filing says.<\/p>\n<p>They also argue that Diddy neither arranged for escorts to travel nor engaged in prostitution himself, noting he did not have sex with the women involved.<\/p>\n<p>The legal team says the Mann Act was misapplied and that the charges unfairly targeted his private lifestyle.<\/p>\n<p>If the court refuses to overturn the verdict, Diddy\u2019s lawyers are requesting a new trial, citing insufficient evidence to support the jury\u2019s decision on the two counts.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-diddy-seeks-bond-with-50-million-package\">Diddy Seeks Bond With $50 Million Package<\/h2>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"&#039;Mr. Combs Should Be Released&#039;: Diddy Lead Attorney Speaks Out\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/8aVowoZBHAc?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>In a separate filing earlier this week, his attorneys renewed their push for pre-sentencing release on a $50 million bond.<\/p>\n<p>They proposed a strict bail package that would keep Diddy at his Miami residence, require him to surrender his passport and limit his travel to the Southern Districts of Florida and New York for legal matters.<\/p>\n<p>They argue that \u201cexceptional circumstances\u201d \u2014 including alleged threats to his safety at Brooklyn\u2019s Metropolitan Detention Center \u2014 justify his release, and point out that others convicted under similar charges have been granted bail while awaiting sentencing.<\/p>\n<p>So far, the court has denied his bond requests, citing past domestic violence incidents and concerns he may pose a threat to others.<\/p>\n<p><h3 class=\"jp-relatedposts-headline\"><em>Related<\/em><\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t<!-- CONTENT END 1 --><\/p><\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/allhiphop.com\/news\/diddy-demands-acquittal-o-new-trial-over-unconstitutional-conviction\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Diddy\u2019s legal team is demanding either an acquittal or a new trial after his conviction, arguing the evidence doesn\u2019t hold up in court.
