Overview

  • Combs’ legal team is preparing a sentencing memorandum ahead of his October 3 hearing to request that he serve his conviction under home confinement rather than in prison.
  • Attorney Marc Agnifilo told TMZ that the Metropolitan Detention Center’s programming falls short on anger management and substance abuse therapy, prompting the push for outside counseling.
  • The defense has already lined up external therapists to oversee his treatment if the judge grants home confinement.
  • Defense attorney Alexandra Shapiro said Combs plans to highlight his goal of serving as a domestic violence counselor in his sentencing filings.
  • All bail requests have been rejected under the Mann Act, and Combs remains detained at Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center pending sentencing.
