I believe the judge is now questioning whether the “Legal” marking was added after the raid or before.

The reason for this is that the DOJ photographed the folder in which the material was kept, before they opened it. The photograph does not show the “Legal” marking, but the envelope presented in court does.

I’m not sure how true this is, but it was widely reported late this afternoon.

If he beats the rap, I bet they kill him. They can’t have him out here talking about what people did (presumably with a copy of the evidence). ESPECIALLY if they don’t have the threat of prison time hanging over his head to keep him quiet.

The judge has to be very careful with this stuff. While I understand the rules about privileged content I also know that Diddy has a history of witness intimidation.

That ruling must have cost Diddy a bundle.

”Assistant US Attorney Christy Slavik revealed during the hearing that the notes taken from Combs' cell were related to personal matters…

In my amateur opinion, the prosecution should not know what is in those notes unless they were obtained through discovery. This puts the prosecution at risk, and it could be intentional.

He apparently was worth about 740M in 2019 but is now only worth 400M. He’s going to run out of bundles pretty quickly and will have to rely on his recordings/photos/information as his capital. I wonder how far that will go until someone gets tired of being blackmailed and end up like Epstein?

"and it could be intentional."

That has crossed my mind too. What better way to get him off the hook than to get the judge to throw out evidence. No evidence, no trial. The rich and powerful get their protection from prosecution.

Alec Baldwin is a free man today because of the prosecution’s “mistakes”. So who knows? You might be on to something there.

That’s my best guess - and the gubmint doesn’t want them......exposed.....

Too bad about Diddy (not really) when the guards fall asleep and the camera systems malfunctions but an “investigation” will be launched to try and figure out how the system failed.

He knows WAY too much ........

“That ruling must have cost Diddy a bundle.”

The judge got a phone call and bank deposit from those on Diddy’s list.

These are documents discovered after his cell got tossed. The prosecution already had sufficient evidence to arrest, indict and deny him bail. Don’t know what was in the documents found in his cell but this doesn’t sound like a “major” victory that necessarily effects the case.

Do you think a lot of people would like to Epstein him? I wonder if he has a dead man’s switch?

“evidence obtained during the search of his cell”

How did he manage to get evidence in his cell? Don’t they walk in with nothing?
