Diddy Combs Sentenced to More Than Four Years in Prison for Prostitution-Related Offenses

Sean “Diddy” Combs has been sentenced to 50 months in federal prison following his conviction on two counts of transporting individuals to engage in prostitution.

The charges are linked to his “freak-off” parties, which involved paid sex workers and were reportedly fueled by drugs and occasional violence. He was acquitted of more serious charges, including racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking by force, fraud, or coercion.

Combs has been in custody since his arrest in September 2024. With time served already credited, he is expected to spend about three more years in prison. He was also fined $500,000 and will serve five years of supervised release after completing his sentence.

During the sentencing hearing, Combs expressed remorse for his past abusive behavior and drug addiction. His defense highlighted his rehabilitation efforts, including teaching business skills to fellow inmates, while prosecutors emphasized the need for deterrence due to the severity of his actions and history of violent behavior.
