Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs Trial Verdict: Rapper and Convicted Sex Offender Sentenced Four Years and Two Months for Prostitution-Related Offences
Hip-hop mogul Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs has been sentenced to four years and two months in prison for transporting people across state lines for drug-fuelled sexual encounters. The judge cited deterrence and questioned his rehabilitation, marking a dramatic downfall for the 55-year-old music icon once seen as a pioneer in the industry.
On October 3, Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs was handed a prison sentence of four years and two months, bringing a dramatic turn in a case that exposed allegations of violence and sex abuse against the rapper. Announcing the verdict on Friday for prostitution-related offences, Judge Arun Subramanian said the sentence was "to send a message to abusers and victims alike that exploitation and violence against women is met with real accountability." The 55-year-old rapper and producer was convicted in July for transporting people across state borders for his infamous sex and drug parties and 'freak off' encounters. However, he was acquitted of the more serious racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking charges, which carried the potential of a life term. The rapper is reported to have broken down in court over his sentencing.
