Diddy’s authorized group despatched blended messages a couple of potential pardon from Donald Trump, leaving everybody confused.

Diddy’s authorized group is tripping over their very own phrases—one lawyer says they by no means hollered at Donald Trump for a pardon, whereas one other one swears they did.

Marc Agnifilo, Diddy’s important authorized mouthpiece, advised CBS News flat-out, “I have nothing to do with a possible pardon. I have had conversations with nobody. I have not spoken to the president. I have not spoken to anybody who speaks to the president about Sean Combs. I have not.”

But maintain up—Attorney Nicole Westmoreland, who’s additionally on Diddy’s group, advised CNN one thing completely completely different. “It’s my understanding that we’ve reached out and had conversations in reference to a pardon,” she stated.

So both somebody’s confused, or this group isn’t on the identical web page. Meanwhile, Trump’s been flippin’ backwards and forwards too.

Earlir this yr, Donald Trump said he’d “certainly look at the facts” and revealed he would consider a pardon for Diddy.

But final week, he cooled off on the concept throughout a Newsmax interview, saying, “I was very friendly with him, I got along with him great, and he seemed like a nice guy. I didn’t know him well, but when I ran for office, he was very hostile.”

So at this level, no one is aware of if a pardon’s even on the desk—or if Diddy’s persons are even asking for one.

For now, Diddy’s a potential 20-year bid after getting hit with two convictions tied to prostitution.

The jury cleared him of the worst fees like intercourse trafficking and racketeering, however two of the transportation of prostitutes throughout state traces in violation of the Mann Act counts caught.

Diddy heads again to courtroom on October 3 for sentencing. Prosecutors are solely asking for about 4.5 years, though the decide has the discretion to ship the disgraced mogul to jail for as many as twenty years.
