Trump Considers Pardoning Diddy Amid Sex Trafficking Allegations
President Donald Trump has stated he would consider a pardon for Sean 'Diddy' Combs, also known as Diddy, who is currently facing serious charges related to sex trafficking.
Trump's Statement
During a press conference, Trump addressed the possibility of a pardon, saying he would "certainly look at the facts." He mentioned that Diddy "used to like him a lot," but noted he hasn't spoken to him in years.
Diddy's Legal Battles
Diddy's trial is ongoing, with significant allegations surfacing. Cassie Ventura, his former girlfriend, testified about a decade-long abusive relationship. Rapper Kid Cudi also testified, linking Combs to an arson incident.
Potential Pardon Efforts
Reports indicate that associates of Combs have been reaching out to Trump administration officials since the 2024 election, seeking a potential pardon or commutation. This is reportedly based on their long-standing acquaintance and Trump's past positive remarks about Combs.
