Saturday, October 4, 2025 - Sean 'Diddy' Combs has been sentenced to over four years behind bars for his pr0stitution conviction.
The music mogul, 55, reportedly hung his head as
Judge Arun Subramanian handed down the sentence of 50 months in a
Manhattan courtroom on Friday, as Diddy's weeping family watched on from the
gallery.
The judge also slapped him with a fine of $500,000 as he
condemned him for his 'savage' abuse of his ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura,
saying he was making an example of him because he caused 'irreparable harm' to
his victims.
'Deterrence requires a significant sentence' he said, noting
that Diddy held more 'freak offs' even after he had been subjected to search
warrants and public shaming over his abuse of Ventura.
'You abused the power and control you had over the lives of
women you professed to love dearly,' the judge said. 'Why did it go on so long?
Because you had the power and resources to keep it going.'
The decision came following a tumultuous sentencing
hearing, with the judge deciding at the start of the day he would still
consider evidence from s£x trafficking and racketeering charges that he was
cleared of back in July.
Prosecutors then told the judge Diddy had arrogantly
arranged speaking arrangements for Monday in Miami, suggesting he didn't
believe he was going to spend any more time behind bars at all.
Diddy's attorney, Nicole Westmoreland, broke down in
tears in her argument for a light sentence, claiming he deserved
leniency because he was awarded Menswear Designer of the Year by the
American Fashion Council in 2004.
'It wasn't just about an award, it was about breaking
barriers,' she said, as courtroom reporters said she appeared to start
crying.
