Sean Diddy Combs Guilty Transportation Prostitution in Federal Court

Sean 'Diddy' Combs was found guilty on two counts of transportation for prostitution but acquitted of sex trafficking and racketeering conspiracy in a high-profile federal trial in Manhattan. The charges stemmed from allegations involving his ex-partners Casandra 'Cassie' Ventura and another woman referred to as 'Jane Doe,' with prosecutors accusing Combs of orchestrating a criminal enterprise exploiting women for sex. Despite being cleared of the more serious charges, Combs faces up to 10 to 20 years in prison for the convictions related to transporting women for prostitution. His defense argued that the trial unfairly criminalized his consensual sexual lifestyle, while prosecutors painted him as a powerful figure using coercion and fear for decades. The case has drawn significant attention, with supporters of the accusers emphasizing the courage it took to bring the case forward and calling for continued advocacy for survivors of sexual misconduct. Combs’ sentencing is pending, and he still faces separate civil lawsuits alleging rape and assault.
