Sean Diddy Combs Apologizes For Assault On Cassie Ahead Of Sentencing

Sean “Diddy” Combs has issued a heartfelt apology in a letter to the judge ahead of his sentencing for two prostitution-related charges, expressing deep remorse for assaulting his ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura in 2016. He acknowledged the gravity of his actions, stating that the images of the assault haunt him daily and that he was "dead wrong" for putting his hands on someone he loved. Combs described his time in jail as a humbling and transformative experience, emphasizing his desire to be a better father and person, and asked the court for mercy to prevent others from making similar mistakes. Ventura, who testified about the abuse she endured during their decade-long relationship, was a key witness in his trial, which led to his conviction.

This case has drawn significant attention as a moment of accountability in the entertainment industry, with the sentencing outcome closely watched as a benchmark for justice.
