Star attorney Joe Tacopina, known for his high-profile clients, turned down Sean Combs' request for representation in his federal sex trafficking trial due to timing. Tacopina expressed belief in the defensibility of Combs' case, focusing on the importance of consent as a central theme. He refuted claims of bias stemming from his connections to Jay-Z and Roc Nation. Tacopina critiqued the government's use of the RICO statute, asserting that the charges against Diddy may be fueled by media attention rather than substantive evidence.
I believe the defense has ample evidence of consent, including rare communications that contradict the allegations. That's my view.
The entire case, I tell you, rises and falls on consent. It's really that simple.
I do think he's getting a raw deal.
I think he has a defensible case.
