Sean 'Diddy' Combs Acquitted Sex Trafficking Racketeering Convicted Prostitution Charges
Sean “Diddy” Combs was acquitted of the most serious charges in his federal trial, including sex trafficking and racketeering conspiracy, but was convicted on lesser charges related to transporting individuals for prostitution, which carry a potential sentence of up to 20 years. Legal experts criticized the federal prosecutors for overreaching by pursuing mobster-like racketeering charges under the RICO Act without sufficient evidence that Combs operated a criminal enterprise, resulting in a weak case that failed to convince the jury on the major counts. Testimonies from Combs' former girlfriends described coerced participation in drug-fueled sex parties dubbed "freak-offs," but the defense argued the women participated voluntarily and challenged the prosecution’s portrayal of Combs’ actions as criminal enterprise conduct. While prosecutors emphasized the alleged abuse and intimidation within Combs’ relationships to justify detention, his defense team sought his release on bail, highlighting the reduced severity of the convictions. Judge Arun Subramanian is expected to decide on Combs' bail and sentencing after considering arguments from both sides. The outcome is seen as a significant legal victory for Combs, who denies all serious allegations and faces sentencing on the lesser convictions.
