The disgraced hip-hop mogul has been cooling his heels at a Brooklyn lockup since his September 2024 arrest and will learn his fate on Oct. 3.
Sean “Diddy” Combs wants to be sprung from jail on time served when he’s sentenced next month forurged a Manhattan judge to order his release when his fate is revealed on Oct.3, according to a new request filed by his legal team late Monday night.
Combs was spared a potential life sentence in July when jurors found him not guilty of racketeering and sex trafficking charges — despiteBut the fallen rap icon still faces up to 10 years in prison after he was convicted on two counts of breaking the Mann Act, a federal law making it a crime to transport someone across state lines for prostitution. Judge Arun Subramanian, who oversaw the two-month trial in Manhattan federal court, is now set to decide how long the “I’ll Be Missing U” rapper will spend behind bars.Customer orders Charlie Kirk’s Starbucks drink and finds a disturbing hate message — employee gets fired— grueling, drug-fueled sex marathons in which he watched his girlfriend perform sex acts with male escorts — and revealed the brazen steps he took to hide his physical abuse of his lovers from the public.The jury acquitted Combs of the top charges in his indictment, which had carried a maximum sentence of life in prison.But they argued that both women consented to the sexual encounters, and showed jurors the sex tapes Combs made of several of the “freak-offs,” plus explicit texts the women sent him while dating him.Combs’ supporters argued that the government criminalized his kinky “swinger” lifestyle by accusing him of racketeering and sex trafficking.“I feared for my career. I feared for my family. It’s just embarrassing. It’s horrible and disgusting. No one should do that to anyone,” she testified. Another lover, “Jane,” testified that Combs forced her to have sex with an escort hours after kicking, choking and “Is this coercion?” Combs chillingly asked her — before ordering his battered lover to perform oral sex on the male sex worker in the June 18, 2024, nightmare, the woman told jurors. The jury of eight men and four women nonetheless acquitted Combs of charges of sex trafficking Ventura and “Jane” by force, fraud or coercion.The jailed mogul’s legal team, including attorney Marc Agnifilo, admitted to Combs’ domestic violence, but convinced jurors to find him not guilty of the top counts.They also found Combs not guilty of racketeering conspiracy after prosecutors charged that the jet-setting businessman led Bad Boy Records like a criminal enterprise., conspired to pay security guards $100,000 to bury footage of Combs assaulting Ventura inside an LA hotel in March 2016. The video later surfaced in May 2024 and was played for jurors at the trial. The court also heard evidence that Combs ordered his security team to force Ventura to spend days at a time in hotels after his repeated beatings, to hide her visible bruises and keep his violence secret.Combs’ lawyers successfully claimed at trial that he was guilty of domestic violence, but not the sex trafficking and racketeering raps that the feds had charged him with. Combs is due back in court for a hearing Thursday morning, with federal prosecutors set to make their own sentencing recommendation to the judge by next Monday.Jimmy Kimmel set for return to ABC after backlash — but won't apologize for Charlie Kirk comments: sourcesHGTV star reveals the shocking way she found out her husband was cheating: 'End of my life as I knew it'Christina Aguilera gets ‘Dirrty’ again, reviving her iconic chaps two decades on Inside Burberry’s chic London Fashion Week fashion show: Jonathan Bailey, Naomi Campbell and more celebrities Private eye attempting to serve Taylor Swift deposition papers for Justin Baldoni lawsuit arrested at Travis Kelce’s home: reportWhat to know about the D4vd investigation surrounding 14-year-old Celeste Rivas' deathThe jury acquitted Combs of the top charges in his indictment, which had carried a maximum sentence of life in prison.The jailed mogul's legal team, including attorney Marc Agnifilo, admitted to Combs' domestic violence, but convinced jurors to find him not guilty of the top counts.
