Judge Explodes Over Leak of Sealed Court Info Over Diddy Case

During Day 25 of Sean “Diddy” Combs’ Federal horse-trade trial took a stunning turn Tuesday, June 17, 2025, when Judge Jesse M. Subramanian made one thing clear: Somebody in his courtroom went too far, and he’s not taking it.

Tuesday, June 17, did not begin with testimony or legal argument but started with fire. When the session began, Judge Subramanian directed his ire at the prosecution and the defense over an online report that echoed confidential information from a sealed court hearing only days earlier.

He said the leak was not just an innocent slip but a transgression, an apparent flouting of the gag order he had impeccably imposed upon everyone who played any role. That gag order was supposed to be airtight, encompassing the prosecution, the defense, and anyone connected to the case. However, with sealed information spilling out into the public, Judge Subramanian called for accountability.

“Somebody in this room disobeyed the rules,” the judge all but thundered, more in dismay than anger. He didn’t say who he might charge, but the chairman clarified that civil or criminal contempt charges are on the table for whoever is responsible.

The judge addressed herself anew to the lead participants, Assistant U.S. Attorney Maurene Comey and defense attorney Marc Agnifilo. In laser focus, he made them understand that the buck stops with them. Judge Subramanian would like to know whether anything was occurring as a result of a mistake or whether it was deliberate.

The tension in the courtroom now reflects the seriousness of the charges Diddy is up against. The music executive has been charged in a five-count indictment with racketeering conspiracy and two counts of sex trafficking by force, fraud, or coercion, as well as two counts of transporting individuals for prostitution. Diddy has denied all of the allegations.

Prosecutors have sought to paint Diddy as the ringleader of a scheme to run a compulsion crime organization, with the defense arguing that he is a scapegoat amid sensational allegations. But now, the legal teams for both sides have come under fire not for their efforts in trying the case but for managing courtroom confidentiality.

Leaks of this nature are generating media buzz and undermining the integrity of the entire legal system. And that is what has Judge Subramanian so hot. He’s been put in charge of a complicated, high-profile case, and, as far as he’s concerned, leaking information under seal is an affront to the rule of law.

This outburst is about more than one article. It is about the credibility of the justice system and the delicate balance between transparency and protection of the defendant’s right to due process. As the trial goes on under a fresh microscope, all eyes will now look not only for the verdict but also to see if the judge follows through on his threat of contempt charges.
