Diddy Denied Bail at Appeal Hearing

Diddy‘s fight to get out of jail has hit a snag … ’cause after arriving at court today to appeal a judge’s ruling he shouldn’t be released on bail, he’s headed back to the detention center.

The rap mogul arrived at a federal courthouse in New York City Wednesday … where his sons, Christian and Justin, came out to support their dad — though ultimately, the judge in the case decided not to grant Diddy bail.

U.S. District Judge Andrew Carter — after hearing arguments from the lawyers — said he was turning down the request because “the government has proven the defendant is a danger. The bail package is insufficient even on risk of flight.”

She says one such incident occurred on March 5, 2016, when Diddy allegedly tried to force a woman to have sex with an escort … after which she says Diddy chased down the individual while wearing only a towel — clearly referring to the hotel surveillance video of Diddy hitting Cassie.

The prosecutor said this alleged incident with Cassie proves Diddy cannot be taken at his word … and promises the half-dozen sex workers allegedly connected to the case they’ve found is the “tip of the iceberg.”

Johnson’s making claims about a series of alleged retaliatory actions as well … claiming victims’ heads were slammed into car windows in order to coerce them into participating.

AUSA Johnson adds the state’s interest in the guns they allegedly found with their serial numbers removed … saying this isn’t about security but “dangerousness.” She argued Diddy shouldn’t be let out on bail because he’s allegedly reached out to people involved in the case numerous times — including singer Kalenna Harper around 128 times.

Diddy’s lawyer, Marc Agnifilo, then presented his rebuttal … presenting the proposed plan from the legal docs they filed early today.

As we told you … the star — who’s currently jailed at MDC Brooklyn, former home to several notorious stars — put his bail appeal in writing early today … proposing he return to his Miami home under the condition he severely restricts which people are allowed to visit him.

He says his security team — Sage Intelligence — will hand over visitor logs every night to the government to show exactly who he’s contacting … and, specifically, he offered to restrict female visitors — with exceptions being family members or mothers of his kids.

Diddy also promises he won’t contact known grand jury members. In fact, his lawyers say he won’t even have a cell phone, so he won’t be able to contact anyone.

As for how much he’s offering, Diddy’s sticking to his $50 million bail package, secured by his Miami residence and his mother’s home.

His lawyers argued Diddy willingly gave up his passport, his family members have given up their passports and he handed over a letter of intent to sell his plane … so, Diddy’s not planning on running from the court, they claim.

As for employees, Agnifilo says they all handle his finances in California … so, no one coming in and out of the house. When it comes to the video of Diddy striking Cassie, Agnifilo said Diddy had a history of drug addiction, which contributed to the incident.

Agnifilo mentioned Governor Andrew Cuomo during his time as well … saying he engaged in similar conduct to Diddy and wasn’t prosecuted. Cuomo was accused of sexual harrassment by around a dozen women.

Prosecutors laid out their case for keeping Diddy in prison without bail … saying they’re afraid he’d intimidate witnesses and further obstruct the case if he’s released on bond. The state’s also worried Diddy is a flight risk because of his massive financial resources.
