Sean “Diddy” Combs Sentenced to More Than 4 Years in Prison | E! News
Shan Diddy Combmes learns if he will be spending even more time in jail. After being convicted on two prostitution related offenses, but acquitted of sex trafficking and racketeering charges in his sex trafficking case, a federal judge has sentenced the bad boy records founder to 50 months in prison, followed by 5 years of supervised release. He must also pay a fine of $500,000. Combmes also has a right to appeal the sentence. 55-year-old Combmes had previously pleaded not guilty to all five charges. two counts of sex trafficking by force, fraud, or coercion, and two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution, as well as one count of racketeering conspiracy, and had initially faced a possible maximum sentence of life in prison. During the 7-week long trial that took place earlier this year, prosecutors argued Combmes had coerced women to take part in freakoffs, which were drugfueled sexual performances with sex workers. The defense countered that such encounters were consensual. One of the alleged victims was his ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura, who dated Combmes on and off between 2007 and 2018 and served as one of the prosecution’s key witnesses. During her testimony, the singer shared how Combmes allegedly controlled all aspects of her life, including instructing her to take part in hundreds of freakoffs. In total, prosecutors called 34 witnesses to the stand, including some of Comb’s former employees, male escorts, federal agents, and a former girlfriend who testified under the pseudonym Jane. Jane, who dated the music mogul for three years until 2024, testified about the nature of her experience with Combmes over the course of six days, alleging that their dynamic made it difficult for her to end their relationship. Before the court date, he penned a letter to the judge in his case in which he addressed surveillance footage from 2016 that showed him assaulting Cassie in a hotel hallway. The rapper wrote in a letter to Judge Subramanian obtained by NBC News October 2nd. The scene and images of me assaulting Cassie play over and over in my head daily. I literally lost my mind. I was dead wrong for putting my hands on the woman that I loved. I’m sorry for that and always will be. Earlier this week, Judge Submanian, who presided over Comb’s trial, denied a request by the rapper’s defense team for an acquitt and a new trial. [Music]

That's it? Wow!!!
Should have gotten at least life in prison… there are people in prison right now serving longer sentences for weed!! And the Kardashian women knew, should have been held accountable as well..
He didn’t do anything
Pathetic. Should've given him the same prison sentence that was given to R Kelly.
he’s a thug
4 years in jail for prostitution charges ?.It feel short.I have seen other prostitution charges verdict for other criminals and most of it are more than 7 years in jail.
He was convicted on two counts of transportation for the purposes of prostitution in violation of the Man Act. Which one count a lone minimum 10 year, Diddy got off pretty easy. I think he'll be out in a year on good behavior. Maybe 🤷🏾♀️😅
Great, now release the Epstein list.
He should never get out of prison for all that he’s done. It is sickening bc he is a celebrity and has money and bc of that, this is all he gets? He is an EVIL DISGUSTING man!
What a joke 4 years really
Congratulations Diddy
Hey u cant use that much baby oil and not be slippery.

Yes, God is good. He got the new time.
🤩
I’m glad it’s over.
Piece of crap needs to be taken out while in jail
Wow 😮 my ahpinyen he deserved it for kicking Cassiey .
What a f’ng joke. Wow!!! What a slap in the face to Cassie the other victims. SMH holy crap-absolutely disgusting!
Disgraceful verdict 🤬
not even a decade
Should’ve gotten a life sentence or death penalty for nearly beating innocent Cassie to death
He better NOT be released in 2028 after what he did! That guy is NOT innocent. He’s a woman beater! Deserves life or death penalty
What an injustice should be stuck in general pop for life.
Let’s see a RECENT pic of him?! No more fancy clothes and vanity! Enough with it! Let’s be realistic. Pictures of him as he looks NOW!
What’s going on with the justice?!? Is that corrupted too? Only 4 yrs? You want to give him the possibility and chance to abuse more?!?
I hope someone takes him out while in prison
