what was diddy sentenced to

Sean "Diddy" Combs was sentenced to 50 months in prison, which is just over four years, for his conviction on two counts of transportation for the purpose of prostitution. In addition to the prison term, he was fined $500,000 and sentenced to five years of supervised release. The sentence took into account the roughly 12 months Combs had already served in jail since his arrest in September 2024. The judge emphasized the need for a substantial sentence to serve as a deterrent, and Combs expressed remorse during the sentencing hearing, apologizing to his victims and family. Prosecutors had sought an 11-year sentence, while the defense argued for around 14 months, citing Combs' behavior since incarceration. The sentencing followed Combs being acquitted on more severe charges of racketeering and sex trafficking but convicted on the lesser prostitution-related charges.
