Sean “Diddy” Combs filed a new request for bail on Friday, saying changed circumstances and new evidence mean the hip-hop mogul should be allowed to prepare for a May trial from outside jail.

Lawyers for Combs filed the request in Manhattan federal court, where his previous requests for bail have been rejected by two judges since his September arrest on racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking charges.
