Diddy Sticks with Extortion Defense

This week, following his arrest for human trafficking [click here if you missed that], Diddy insists the entire case is based on extortion...

Sean "Diddy" Combs has hit back at prosecutors.
RadarOnline.com can reveal the music mogul accused the sole alleged sax trafficking victim named in his indictment of attempting to extort him for $30million.
Combs' attorney, Marc Agnifilo, outlined the alleged extortion attempt in a letter to the judge on September 18.
Combs' attorney not only claimed the woman named in the indictment was not a victim of sax trafficking, but claimed his client had a recorded conversation backing his extortion claims.
The letter stated: "First, there is one alleged sax trafficking victim in the Indictment. One. The government can say what it wants, but what is actually charged is one victim.
"Count Two, charging sax trafficking mentions Victim 1. There is no Victim 2. That one person was in a ten-year romantic relationship with Sean Combs. That one person was an adult woman who lived alone, who never lived with Sean Combs.
He continued: "She had her own friends, she had her own life, as adults tend to do. Mr. Combs and this person were very much in love for a long time, as the many written communications between them show.
"This one person often expressed anger and jealousy because Mr. Combs had another girlfriend, as will be testified to by many witnesses and as the written communications show.
"At the end of Mr. Combs and this person's relationship, she started a relationship with her trainer, which prompted Mr. Combs and the woman to break up. He did not force her stay, but instead, released her from any obligation to his record label.
"A month later, when the mother of four of Mr. Combs' children passed away, this person was present at multiple memorial services around the country to support him. This is not sax trafficking."
