"He lost personal property, cash, and valuables worth over $10,000," Reed asserts, exacerbating the situation. "He was deprived of these things."

Trump denies Diddy a pardon—50 Cent mocks him as MAGA cheers the rejection
ALBAWABA - Donald Trump won't pardon Diddy despite calling him 'half innocent'. Donald Trump thinks that Sean "Diddy" Combs is "half-innocent" in his sex-trafficking trial. However, the Grammy winner will not be given a presidential pardon right now. And just two days ago, Deadline revealed firsthand that Trump was "seriously considering" such a pardon, but the White House kept its cards close to its chest. Friday's decision not to grant the pardon makes Diddy's enemy 50 Cent very happy. "Can you believe he thought he was getting pardoned?" The pro-Trump rapper and Power franchise EP released on social media late Friday with an AI-generated picture. This came after a still-angry Trump told Newsmax that he wasn't likely to let Combs out of jail. "No, sir, you're not." You said some really mean things. But because Trump is Trump, anything could happen at any time. WASHINGTON, DC - JULY 31: U.S. President Donald Trump (Photo by Anna Moneymaker / Getty Images via AFP) The eight-man and four-woman jury found Combs guilty of lesser charges of transportation to engage in prostitution on July 2. This was a response to the broad case brought by federal authorities. As of now, the U.S. Attorney's office for the Southern District of New York wants Combs, who calls herself a "swinger" and a domestic violence victim, to be denied getting out on a $50 million bond and given a sentence of several years in prison on October 2. However, the fact is that the not guilty verdict on the serious sex trafficking and racketeering conspiracy charges was a huge setback for lead prosecutor Maurene Comey and her team, who were fired. Part of Trump's public and private flirtation with a Combs pardon is to hurt the family of former FBI Director James Comey. Sources tell me that the president also wants to punish the SDNY for what he sees as going too far and being too independent. Curtis "50 Cent " Jackson promised months ago that he would try to talk Trump out of pardoning Combs. On Friday, the "In Da Club" rapper posted a clip from Trump's meeting with the new conservative cable news host, where Trump agreed with reporter Rob Finnerty that Diddy would "more likely not" get a pardon. As Combs's supporters, the White House, and people close to the transactional president and Trump as a person called for forgiveness, tonight's "no" to the pardon was not a simple "no." After talking about a pardon for Ghislaine Maxwell, who had become Jeffrey Epstein's new trustworthy friend, Finnerty asked, "Sean 'Diddy' Combs." Would you think about forgiving him?" Trump, being typical of his self-centeredness, responded, "Well, I guess he was kind of half innocent." Most likely. I liked him a lot before I ran for office, but he was mean to me, and it's tough. I don't know, it's harder. Trump said one minute that he didn't know much about Maxwell and the next that he knew a lot about Combs. When asked in May about a pardon for Combs, the head of Bad Boy Records, Trump was slightly less likely to say that Combs was innocent. Trump said on May 30 in the Oval Office, "I would certainly look at the facts if I think someone was mistreated, whether they like me or don't like me." This was just a couple of weeks after Combs' trial started, which went on for eight weeks and was often horribly corrupt. Since our report that Combs might get a pardon, Megyn Kelly and other members of the MAGA media have begged Trump not to let the former mogul off the hook. The former Fox News host said on July 30 that "MAGA is already mad that elites seem to be covering for each other." "This won't help." "The GOP is having a hard time with young women voters, and most of them will hate a Diddy pardon!" Kelly yelled in a pretty strong case that also served as a warning shot to Trump, who is known for being transactional and media-shy. Combs is still in Brooklyn's Metropolitan Detention Center. He faces up to 20 years in prison for the prostitution charges he was found guilty of. After being arrested in a New York City hotel in September, Diddy has been at the prison that gets a lot of bad press. Trying to quell a MAGA uprising over the withholding of the promised files on the vile Epstein, who died in custody in 2019, Trump has been letting loose even more of a barrage of distractions than usual to direct attention away from his well-known relationship with convicted and well-connected sex offender Epstein and what the files may say about him.
