A lawyer for Sean ‘Diddy’ Coombs has blamed racism for his client’s downfall as he awaits trial on sex trafficking charges rom a New York prison cell.
Attorney Marc Agnifilo, featured in the documentary TMZ Presents: The Downfall of Diddy: The Indictment, claims that the federal government specifically targeted rapper because of his race.
“[The government] is no friend historically of the successful Black man, okay, none,” Agnifilio said. “And they start making this case, in my opinion, as a takedown of a successful Black man.”
“This is the government scrutinizing his business, scrutinizing his taxes, he does everything right,” he continued. ‘What’s the last vestige, we are going to go into his bedroom because maybe we don’t like the way he is having sex.”
Diddy is facing charges of racketeering,
