DIDDY JAIL-CELL RAID: DEMANDS "DIG UP DIRT" ON VICTIMS

Crime Stories with Nancy Grace

As part of the interagency contraband sweep at the MDC, agents confiscate 19 pages of notes from Sean Combs’ belongings and turn them over to federal prosecutors. Among those notes are inspirational quotes, reminders about family and financial matters that need to be discussed, and a ‘To-Do List.’ That list included a need to instruct a family member to quote “find dirt” on two potential victims, and quote “find everything” on another victim.

Attorney Marc Angifilo expressed his shock and outrage that he was not made aware prosecutors were in possession of the notes for weeks after they were confiscated. Agnifilo accuses prosecutors of a ‘complete institutional failure’ and claims Combs’ constitutional rights have been violated, as those handwritten notes contained privileged materials. His defense team now calling for a dismissal of the indictment or a recusal of the prosecution team.

Prosecutors argue there has been no wrongdoing, as the notes went to a “Filter team” to confirm they did not contain privileged information before prosecutors ever laid eyes on them. Federal agent Mary Slavik says her team acted “in a completely appropriate fashion” in regard to the 19 pages of documents.

Judge Subramanian calls an emergency hearing on the matter. Shockingly, Combs appears for the hearing unshackled—a freedom granted for all future court appearances. Combs seems more at ease, hugs his attorneys, and surveys the courtroom to see who is in attendance. Judge Subramanian rules that the notes will not be allowed into evidence, and prosecutors must destroy any and all copies of the documents.
