42
00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:34,040
Speaker 1: news after this Sean Diddy Combs is asking a federal

43
00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:36,560
Speaker 1: judge to let him out of jail before his October

44
00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:39,960
Speaker 1: third sentencing, arguing that no other John has ever been

45
00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:43,280
Speaker 1: treated like this. Combs was found not guilty earlier this

46
00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:46,200
Speaker 1: month on the most serious charges tied to his drug

47
00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:49,560
Speaker 1: fueled freak offs. He was convicted on two lesser charges

48
00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:52,880
Speaker 1: for interstate prostitution. He now faces two to five years.

49
00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:56,440
Speaker 1: Judge A. Run Subramanian ruled that Combs would stay in

50
00:02:56,520 --> 00:03:00,520
Speaker 1: jail until sentencing, citing his past domestic violence. On Tuesday,

51
00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:03,880
Speaker 1: Comb's legal team filed a new request. They said no

52
00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:06,639
Speaker 1: one else accused of hiring sex workers has been jailed

53
00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:10,880
Speaker 1: before sentencing. His lawyer, Mark Agnifilo wrote, quote, Shawn Combs

54
00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:14,480
Speaker 1: should not be incarcerated for his behavior. The defense argues

55
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:17,160
Speaker 1: that pre sentencing jail is meant for those who run

56
00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:20,960
Speaker 1: prostitution rings, not for someone who simply hired sex workers.

57
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:24,240
Speaker 1: They say this case is unlike any other since federal

58
00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:28,240
Speaker 1: prostitution laws were passed. Comb's lawyers said, quote, mister Combs

59
00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:31,440
Speaker 1: is locked up while everyone else involved in the same activity,

60
00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:35,440
Speaker 1: including his girlfriend, friends, the sex workers, the agency leaders,

61
00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:39,160
Speaker 1: and adult film stars, remain free. His team says he

62
00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:41,360
Speaker 1: is not a flight risk and will not pose harm

63
00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:44,760
Speaker 1: to anyone. They offer strict terms for release, including a

64
00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:48,840
Speaker 1: fifty million dollar bond and limits on travel. Agnafillo said quote,

65
00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:51,280
Speaker 1: the jury restored his life, and he will not waste

66
00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:53,880
Speaker 1: his second chance, nor will he do anything to further

67
00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:56,720
Speaker 1: risk his seven children being without a father, or four

68
00:03:56,760 --> 00:04:00,720
Speaker 1: of them losing a parent entirely. A violent is on

69
00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:04,040
Speaker 1: the run in New Orleans after jail staff mistakenly released

70
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:07,600
Speaker 1: him from the same facility where ten inmates escaped in May.

71
00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:10,720
Speaker 1: Khalil Bryan, age thirty, was let out of the Orleans

72
00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:14,240
Speaker 1: Justice Center early Friday. Deputies mixed him up with another

73
00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:16,920
Speaker 1: inmate who had a similar last name. At the time,

74
00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:19,479
Speaker 1: Brian was being held on a one hundred thousand dollars

75
00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:22,800
Speaker 1: bench warrant. He faces felony charges and has another active

76
00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:26,520
Speaker 1: warrant in Jefferson Parish. That charge involved ramming police cars

77
00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:30,080
Speaker 1: during a twenty twenty three police chase. Orleans Parish Sheriff

78
00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:34,120
Speaker 1: Susan Hudson took the blame at a press conference. Hudson said, quote,

79
00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:37,280
Speaker 1: it was a failure of internal processes and as a sheriff,

80
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:41,200
Speaker 1: I take full responsibility. The mistake happened around one am,

81
00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:43,839
Speaker 1: but the public was not warned until more than fifteen

82
00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:46,760
Speaker 1: hours later, when a citywide alert went out at four

83
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:50,520
Speaker 1: thirty pm. Hudson says an internal review is under way.

84
00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:53,600
Speaker 1: Brian has a long criminal record. He pleaded guilty to

85
00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:56,719
Speaker 1: armed robbery in twenty fourteen. He's also been charged with

86
00:04:56,800 --> 00:05:00,760
Speaker 1: home invasion, child endangerment, drug crimes, and agriv assault with

87
00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:03,800
Speaker 1: a firearm. Officials say he is dangerous and should not

88
00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:07,120
Speaker 1: be approached. Tipsters can call crime Stoppers at eight seven

89
00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:09,839
Speaker 1: seven nine oh three. Stop. You do not have to

90
00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:12,360
Speaker 1: give your name, and a reward may be offered. This

91
00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:15,839
Speaker 1: mistaken release happened two months after a major jail break

92
00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:19,520
Speaker 1: from the same facility. On May sixteenth, ten inmates escaped

93
00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:22,080
Speaker 1: in a planned breakout, getting help from a jail worker

94
00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:25,200
Speaker 1: and taking advantage of poor patrols. The men removed a

95
00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:28,400
Speaker 1: toilet and sink, cut through metal bars, and crawled out

96
00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:31,040
Speaker 1: through a hole in the wall. They ditched their uniforms,

97
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:34,600
Speaker 1: climbed over a wall, and ran across Interstate ten. One

98
00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:37,320
Speaker 1: guard had left his post. The escape was not noticed

99
00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:40,320
Speaker 1: until a head count seven hours later. Nine of the

100
00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:44,000
Speaker 1: ten fugitives have since been caught. Derek Groves remains on

101
00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:46,760
Speaker 1: the run. A dozen people have been arrested for helping

102
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:49,920
Speaker 1: with the escape or hiding the fugitives. For the latest
