Diddy sentenced to 50 months in prison
Prosecutors had pushed for more than 11 years, while the defence sought 14 months — which would have equalled time served. Since Combs has been in custody since September 2024, he will receive credit for over a year already served.

U.S. District Court Judge Arun Subramanian sentenced embattled Entertainment magnate, Sean Combs to 50 months behind bars.
Prosecutors had sought an 11-year, three-month prison term for his Mann Act conviction, while the defence was aiming for a 14-month sentence, which would have amounted to time served.
Mr Combs, 55, was taken into custody in September last year so he'll have more than a year of credit toward his imprisonment.
The judge also fined Combs $500,000 and ordered five years of supervised release once Combs leaves prison.
Judge says the Bad Boy Mogul 'inspired communities' worldwide and 'abused' his power.
Judge Arun Subramanian mentioned that he had considered several factors in determining Combs’ sentence, including that he is a self-made artist who has “inspired and lifted up communities worldwide.”
He cited Combs work and family history, including the murder of Combs’ father, and he said that work Combs had done behind bars was impressive.
“The court hopes you will continue to do that,” the judge said.
Subramanian added that he had to consider "all" of Combs' history.
"You abused the power and control with women you professed to love," he said. "You abused them physically, emotionally, and psychologically."
Combs says he wants to be made 'an example of what a person can do if they get another chance'
During his submission, Combs said he does not take his conviction lightly and said he wants the judge to “make an example of what a person can do” with a second chance.
“I take full accountability and responsibility,” he said. “The prosecution wants you to make an example of me. I want you to make an example of what a person can do if they get another chance, and if you give me another chance, I will not let you down.”
