Judge Orders Destruction of Diddy's Jail Notes Amid Legal Battle

TL;DR Summary
A federal judge has temporarily barred prosecutors from using documents seized from Sean 'Diddy' Combs' jail cell, pending a decision on whether they are protected by attorney-client privilege. The papers, photographed during a sweep at the Metropolitan Detention Center, are claimed by Combs' defense to be trial preparation materials. Combs, facing charges of coercion and abuse, argues that the seizure was improper and may seek dismissal of the indictment if the judge rules in his favor. The judge has requested written arguments from both sides.
