US EditionPresident Trump says he won't grant Diddy's pardon request
Trump cited past hostility from Combs as a factor and confirmed no pardon consideration despite receiving a clemency letter from the incarcerated rapper.
- On Thursday, President Donald Trump said Sean 'Diddy' Combs 'asked me for a pardon' through a letter but he is not considering granting the request.
- After Combs criticized him during the 2016 presidential campaign, Trump said their once-friendly relationship soured, complicating clemency decisions despite earlier pardon speculation.
- Combs is serving a 50-month sentence at FCI Fort Dix, New Jersey, convicted on two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution and pursuing an appeal while incarcerated.
- The president also said he will not pardon high-profile inmates including Nicolás Maduro, Robert Menendez, and Sam Bankman-Fried; White House officials referred reporters to Trump's remarks without further comment.
- Given President Donald Trump's record of high-profile pardons, Combs' appeal and June 4, 2028 release date highlight how Trump will handle clemency in similar cases.
