Sean 'Diddy' Combs denied bail, awaits sentencing in prison
Hip-hop mogul Sean "Diddy" Combs has been convicted on two federal counts for transporting people across state or international borders for prostitution.
Each count could mean up to 10 years in prison, so he's facing a possible 20-year sentence.
He was cleared of the more serious racketeering and sex trafficking charges.
Combs's conviction follows extensive investigation and raids at his homes
Combs's conviction comes after months of investigation, including raids at his Miami and LA homes where police seized firearms and thousands of bottles of lubricant.
Testimony from his ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura about parties involving escorts played a big role in the case.
The judge denied him bail, citing violent incidents tied to the raids and saying Combs ignored the law.
He remains in custody since his September 2024 arrest, with sentencing still to come—and nearly 80 civil lawsuits for alleged abuse also waiting in line.
