Combs now awaits sentencing on the two convictions after avoiding the life sentence tied to the racketeering charge.
Judge Arun Subramanian denied bail for Sean « Diddy » Combs as he awaits his sentencing on two counts of transporting individuals for the purpose of prostitution.
Subramanian ruled that the law does not permit Combs’ release at this stage of the case.
Citing multiple factors, the judge highlighted Combs’ history of violence:
« At trial, the defense conceded the defendant’s violence in his personal relationships, saying it happened with Cassie and Jane. »
As the judge delivered the decision, Combs sat motionless, his hands resting in his lap.
This morning, the jury acquitted the hip-hop mogul on the top charges of racketeering and sex trafficking.
