They took off with more than $700,000 in valuables after a family member inside fired shots that forced them to flee. But when investigators searched the property afterward, they discovered marijuana and…

Whelp, Sean “Diddy” Combs has been dealt another major legal blow after Judge Arun Subramanian denied his request for a new trial or an acquittal ahead of sentencing. The decision, issued Tuesday, September 30, dismissed arguments from Combs’ legal team that his convictions violated constitutional rights. His lawyers, which TBH are an all star team, claimed prosecutors had persuaded jurors to convict solely because Combs arranged for women or paid escorts to cross state lines for sex. They argued that such encounters, including the infamous “freak-off” gatherings, should be considered protected under the First Amendment, comparing them to consensual voyeurism…
