The Thursday Diddy report. What now?

The Sean “Diddy” Combs scandal has the potential of being the biggest #MeToo thing we’ve ever seen. Not a day goes by without more stuff coming out.

Diddy wants a trial date set for April or May.

So says his lawyer. He’s also asking to be let out of jail until that trial. He will appear before a judge for the first time today (October 10) in Brooklyn.

Diddy’s lawyer has a theory

His lawyer accuses the government of leaking information–specifically his beat-down of Cassie Ventura–to poison Diddy’s chances of a fair trial.

Justin Bieber wants no part of this

He’s been warned to “stay as far as possible” from Diddy. Meanwhile, this Justin Bieber song (from TikTok) about “Diddy party” may have been created by AI.

Here comes more conspiracy theories

This one involves Jay-Z, Beyonce and the death of Michael Jackson.

And have we thought of this?

Who’s going to testify at Diddy’s trial? Could some of his A-lister friends be called to the stand? If that’s the case, how many will invoke their Fifth Amendment rights?
