In a high‑profile verdict that marks a dramatic fall from grace, Sean “Diddy” Combs has been sentenced to 50 months (4 years and 2 months) in federal prison following his conviction on two counts of transporting individuals across state lines for prostitution, often referred to in court as “freak‑offs.”  While a jury acquitted him of more severe charges—including racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking—those dismissals offered little reprieve as the court emphasized the gravity of the crimes he was found guilty of.Judge Arun Subramanian, who imposed the sentence, underscored the importance of accountability, citing Combs’ history of abusing the power imbalance in his relationships and documenting the coercion and violence presented in witness testimony.  With credit for time already served, Combs is expected to serve about three more years behind bars, followed by five years of supervised release and a $500,000 fine.
