US Edition50 Cent, Aubrey O'Day and More React to the Verdict in the Sean 'Diddy' Combs Sex Trafficking Trial
- On July 2, 2025, a Manhattan federal jury acquitted Diddy of racketeering and sex trafficking but found him guilty of two transportation counts under the Mann Act.
- Prosecutors alleged Combs led a criminal enterprise to coerce women for sex trafficking, with Cassie Ventura’s 2023 civil suit and ex-girlfriends’ testimonies underpinning the case.

- Judge Arun Subramanian ordered Combs to remain jailed pending sentencing, with prosecutors arguing he remains a flight risk and bail postponed for later review.
- A sentencing hearing is scheduled for 5 pm EDT; both sides will submit briefs, and appeals to the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court may take years, delaying final resolution.
