Description
In a significant development, Anthony Ricco, one of Sean "Diddy" Combs' defense attorneys, has filed a motion to withdraw from representing Combs in his upcoming federal sex trafficking trial. In the motion submitted on February 21, 2025, Ricco stated, "Under no circumstances can I continue to effectively serve as counsel for Sean Combs, consistent with the ABA Standards for Criminal Justice." He did not provide specific reasons for his decision, citing attorney-client privilege. Ricco assured the court that his withdrawal would not delay the trial scheduled for May 5, 2025, as Combs continues to be represented by five other attorneys, including lead counsel Marc Agnifilo.
Combs has been incarcerated since his arrest in September 2024 on charges of racketeering, sex trafficking, and related offenses, to which he has pleaded not guilty. The allegations against him include organizing illicit parties and other misconduct. In addition to his criminal case, Combs has filed a $100 million defamation lawsuit against NBCUniversal and the production company Ample, alleging that a docuseries falsely portrays him as a criminal.
