Sean'Diddy Comb Faces Uncertain Future After Partial Law Victory of Gender Allegations

Sean Diddy's federal trial ended a partial victory for the music tycoon this week, with jurors finding him guilty of a transport crime of prostitution, but clearing his charges that could have left him behind for life.

But the dramatic legal legend has attracted the public and glimpses of the life of one of America's most powerful musical figures, far from over. He still faces dozens of civil lawsuits accusing him of misconduct and sexual assault.

“This judgment did not make civil cases disappear,” said Dmitry Gorin, a former sex crime prosecutor and defense attorney. “About the government's actual proof – domestic violence and blackmail, criminal cases may be more successful in state courts.”

How much time will the comb spend in prison for convictions related to prostitution.

The jury's split sentence puts each of the two counts of prostitution facing up to 10 years in prison. A jury of eight men and four women found he was not guilty of sexual trafficking of force, fraud or coercion. and extortion may result in life imprisonment. In a letter attempting to put him in jail, prosecutors listed sentencing guidelines for 51 to 63 months or more.

Goring said the comb's lawyer could prompt probation.

“He was found responsible for paying sex workers to travel across states, but at the end of the day, it was the government’s loss,” he said.

Judge Arun Subramanian also had a considerable latitude when deciding how much time the comb would provide. Subramanian has not been easy for celebrities so far.

He ruled Wednesday that the comb would be sentenced to jail at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn until his sentencing hearing, citing violence his attorneys admitted during the trial.

Explaining his decision, Subramanian mentioned the testimony of Combs' ex-girlfriend, known only as Jane, who was a celebrity in June 2024 when Combs realized he was investigating and dragged her down.

“The defendant cannot prove that he is not dangerous with clear and compelling evidence,” Subramanian said.

Combs' attorneys filed a $1 million margin and offered to surrender his passport, get him under drug tests and limit his travel to New York, Los Angeles and Miami.

Combs' lawyers pointed out in a letter about his release that Combs has children and an 85-year-old mother with various health conditions and hope that her son will become her primary caregiver.

“It is even unfair to continue to detain Mr. Combs on the MDC one day, especially because – considering the sentencing guidelines for these offences of prostitution – otherwise he would have the right to serve any additional time imposed in low-security facilities,” his attorney wrote.

Subramanian said that under the Mann Act, detention is “mandatory” of allegations related to prostitution. The order date has not been set, but the judge proposed a hearing in October.

During trial, prosecutors often portray combs and colleagues as attracting female victims in the pretense of romantic relationships. Prosecutors said once he caught their interest, Combs said the use of force, threats of force, coercion and drugs made them sexually with male prostitutes, while he occasionally watched the combs as being called “freaks” at parties.

Jurors heard three women, two ex-girlfriends and a personal assistant, who described in the Empire the culture of prosecutors comparing it to mob-style racket action. The government accused his company Bad Boy Entertainment, which acted as a criminal enterprise, threatened and abused women and used members to engage in a range of crimes including kidnapping, sexual trafficking, bribery, bribery, arson, forced labor and obstruction of justice.

At the booth, witnesses testified that the comb gave women ketamine, ecstasy and GHB “make them obedient and compliant” during the performance.

In May, as the trial progressed, a reporter asked President Trump about the case and pointed out that he had the right to pardon those convicted of federal crimes.

Trump told reporters that no one asked him to pardon celebrities. He said he did not pay close attention to the case and “certainly look at the facts.”

“I know people are thinking about that,” Trump said. “I think some people are very close to asking.”
