A third attempt by Sean 'Diddy' Combs' attorneys to get the hip-hop mogul released from prison on bail was denied by a judge.

Sean “Diddy” Combs was denied bail on Wednesday as he awaits a May sex trafficking trial by a judge who cited evidence showing him to be a “serious risk” of witness tampering and proof he has tried to hide prohibited communications with third parties while incarcerated.

Hip-hop mogul Sean "Diddy" Combs remains in federal custody after a judge denied his third bail request. Prosecutors argued Combs obstructed justice by contacting witnesses through banned communication services and used social media to influence public opinion.
