DIDDY FILES NEW APPEAL, CLAIMS JUDGE ACTED AS 'THIRTEENTH JUROR' WITH SEVERE SENTENCE. (PHOTO).


 Diddy files new appeal, claims judge acted as 'thirteenth juror' with severe sentence

Diddy’s legal team has filed a new appeal, sharply criticizing Judge Arun Subramanian for what they say was an overreach in handing down a 50-month prison sentence. The appeal, submitted late Tuesday, asks for Diddy’s conviction to be overturned or, at the very least, for his sentence to be reduced. The filing specifically accuses Subramanian of acting as a “thirteenth juror” rather than a neutral judge during the criminal trial.

Lead attorney Alexandra Shapiro argues in the documents that the judge imposed a “draconian” sentence based on conduct tied to racketeering and sex trafficking charges for which Diddy had been acquitted. Shapiro claims Subramanian improperly considered Diddy’s behavior related to the acquitted counts when determining the sentence, violating his constitutional rights. Diddy maintains his punishment should be limited to the two Mann Act convictions — transporting individuals for prostitution — for which he was found guilty. Previous appeals have also challenged whether Diddy even arranged the travel or payments tied to the alleged Mann Act violations. Federal prosecutors have a few months to respond before the case proceeds to the appellate court.
