Sean 'Diddy' Combs Sentenced to 50 Months Prison for Prostitution Charges, Family Supports at Hearing

Sean "Diddy" Combs was sentenced to 50 months (just over 4 years) in federal prison and fined $500,000 following his conviction on two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution, while being acquitted of more serious charges including sex trafficking and racketeering conspiracy. The sentencing took place in New York before Judge Arun Subramanian, who denied bail despite Combs' legal team's efforts and a plea highlighting his charitable work and family life. Combs' six older children attended the courtroom to support him, with some addressing the judge emotionally, expressing fear about growing up without their parents and believing in their father's potential for positive change. Combs' family left the court quietly, with his children remaining reserved and avoiding media questions. The case has been a lengthy and dramatic legal battle, with prosecutors pushing for over 11 years in prison, while the defense sought a sentence under 14 months, underscoring the complexities of the trial and sentencing. Throughout the process, Combs has leaned heavily on his family for strength and support, highlighting the personal toll of the proceedings.
