Diddy's alleged drug mule Brendan Paul's felony drug charges all dropped after completing diversion program

While Diddy's legal woes are nowhere near over, one of his alleged drug mules is now off the hook.

Felony drug charges against Brendan Paul have all been dropped by Florida prosecutors, according to TMZ.

The charges were officially dropped on Tuesday after Paul, 25, completed a pretrial diversion program, according to his attorney Brian Bieber. 

Federal sources also insist that Paul did not strike any sort of deal with federal prosecutors in Diddy's case.

Paul - a former college basketball player at Syracuse - worked at Diddy's primary assistant and he was arrested at the Miami-Opa Locka Executive Airport in March.

At the same time of Paul's arrest, Diddy's mansions in both Miami and Los Angeles were being raided by federal authorities.

Paul was searched at the airport and authorities found cocaine and marijuana candy, and he was taken into custody.

He was issued one felony charge of drug possession, with Bieber stating at the time, 'We will be dealing with this case in the courtroom, not the court of public opinion.'

While it was believed at the time that Paul could be offered a deal to testify against his boss, it seems that has not happened.

Paul will avoid both jail time and probation now that all of the charges against him have been dropped. 

As for Paul's former boss Diddy, the 55-year-old just recently had his third bail appeal denied, keeping him behind bars until the trial.

The trial is currently set for May 2025 and he is being held at the Brooklyn Metropolitan Detention Center. 

Late last month, US District Judge Arun Subramanian made the decision to deny Diddy's request for bail following a hearing.

At the time, lawyers for the rapper argued that a $50 million bail package they proposed would be sufficient to ensure Combs does not flee and does not try to intimidate prospective trial witnesses.

Subramanian cited direct evidence of Combs' violence — referring to Diddy beating ex Cassie in a 2016 hotel surveillance video — and a serious risk of witness tampering in the denial.

The ruling read: 'The Court finds that the government has shown by clear and convincing evidence that no condition or combination of conditions will reasonably assure the safety of the community.'

Prosecutors had previously said Combs had been 'witness tampering' from behind bars with Subramanian agreeing and saying: 'There is evidence supporting a serious risk of witness tampering.'

The judge also cited evidence that Diddy violated communication behind bars rules including paying for inmates' Phone Access Code numbers to make three way calls to people who are not on his approved contact list.

'Compelling evidence of Combs's propensity for violence' was also cited in the decision.
