The judge in Sean “Diddy” Combs' criminal case has pushed backed the date for his decision on Combs' bail request until next week, asking the rapper's legal team and New York prosecutors to lay out whether the music mogul violated any laws behind bars.

October 22 Two of Combs’ seven children—Quincy Brown, Combs' adopted 33-year-old son, and Chance Combs, his 18-year-old daughter with Sarah Chapman—made a joint post on Instagram calling the last month "devastating" for their family and defending their father from what they called "accusations, conspiracy theories and false narratives.”

With family and friends nearby, Combs was sitting there Friday unshackled in the Daniel Patrick Moynihan Courthouse. The notoriously self-promoting rapper was denied bail twice before in quick succession by other judges just after his arrest on sex trafficking and other charges two months ago.
