Sean 'Diddy' Combs trial updates: Bail denied due to 'propensity for violence'

U.S. District Judge Arun Subramanian again denied the request to release Combs.

Sean Combs briefly tried to raise his hand to speak in court. The judge seemed to ignore the move and instead asked Assistant United States Attorney Maurene Comey to respond to the defense arguments.

"He is extremely violent with an extraordinary temper who has shown no remorse and no regret," said Comey. "His brazenness is unmatched."

U.S. District Judge Arun Subramanian told defense attorneys that Sean Combs’ continued detention is in part because of the argument used by his lawyers to secure a partial acquittal -- that Combs engaged in domestic violence but not sex trafficking.

"You full-throatedly in your closing argument told the jury that there was violence here, and domestic violence is violence," Subramanian said. "You said this was a case that did have violence."

"As to the basic question of violence, you conceded that in your closing," Subramanian added.

Combs was seen passing multiple notes to defense attorney Marc Agnifilo, who continued to plead for the judge to release Combs.

"I just think we should trust him. He is not going to flee," Agnifilo said. "He just deserves the chance."

"If the trial showcases one thing, he has done remarkable things in his life. He has these flaws in his personality, which are significant and held him back," he said. "He is a man who is in the process of working on himself."

Subramanian has so far not indicated a willingness to change his ruling. The hearing continues.

U.S. District Judge Arun Subramanian did not weigh in on Combs' future sentence but noted that there is a "wide" divide between what prosecutors and defense attorneys have suggested for Combs' sentence.

"We have very strong arguments that Mr. Combs would be entitled to a below-guidelines sentence," attorney Marc Agnifilo said, arguing that Combs' case stands alone compared to similar prostitution cases.

Subramanian also set a hearing in early July to determine how to proceed with the pre-sentence investigation conducted by the court's probation department.

Agnifilo says Combs wants to be sentenced "as soon as possible."

Combs has been largely motionless at the counsel table. He was seen covering his face with his hand.

In an interview with ABC News, Cassie Ventura's attorney said they had expected Sean Combs would be convicted of the sex trafficking count involving her, which he said was the "most important count to her."

"I think that obviously she would be a lot happier if the jury had convicted on that. But she's at peace with the verdict," her attorney, Douglas Wigdor, said. "She is moving ahead with her beautiful family and her husband."

Combs was found guilty of two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution, one of which is in connection with her. Wigdor said he will discuss with Ventura about giving a victim impact statement at Combs' sentencing.

"I wouldn't be surprised if she makes the decision to do that, because it's important," he said.
