A US judge has ordered prosecutors to destroy their copies of handwritten notes seized from Sean 'Diddy' Combs' jail cell, pending a decision on whether they can be used as evidence.
A US judge has ordered prosecutors in the case against Sean " Diddy " Combs to destroy their copies of handwritten notes taken from his jail cell.District Judge Arun Subramanian will consider arguments from the prosecution and defence to decide whether they can be used as evidence against the rapper.
But lawyers for Mr Combs, who has pleaded not guilty, argue they were subject to lawyer-client privilege, a legal doctrine that safeguards confidential communications between lawyers and their clients. "This is a matter of grave concern that, most respectfully, must be addressed immediately," they told Judge Subramanian, who has already scheduled a bail hearing for Mr Combs for on Friday.
The judge said he would keep a copy of the notes until he determines whether prosecutors have a right to use them to build their case.
