The New York Knicks\u2019 stunning collapse in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals sent shockwaves to all corners of the city \u2014 including the sex trafficking trial of Sean \u201cDiddy\u201d Combs<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

When Judge Arun Subramanian sent the trial jury home on Thursday, May 22, ahead of the long Memorial Day holiday weekend, he listed some potential activities for the jurors to avoid hearing information about the case during their time away from the courthouse.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cGo on a bike ride, watch the Knicks avenge their Game 1 loss,\u201d Subramanian suggested.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Subramanian insisted that jurors are not allowed to look up any information about the case, read any news coverage or talk to anyone involved \u201cin any way shape or form.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are disappointed with the decision to pursue what we believe is an unjust prosecution of Mr. Combs by the U.S. Attorney\u2019s Office,\u201d Diddy\u2019s attorney Marc Agnifilo said in a statement at the time. \u201cHe is an imperfect person, but he is not a criminal. To his credit Mr. Combs has been nothing but cooperative with this investigation and he voluntarily relocated to New York last week in anticipation of these charges. Please reserve your judgment until you have all the facts. These are the acts of an innocent man with nothing to hide, and he looks forward to clearing his name in court.\u201d<\/p>\n

Since his arrest, Diddy has been held at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn. His four requests for bail were denied by Judge Subramanian.\u00a0<\/p>\n
