Suge Knight Reacts To Diddy’s 50-Month Sentence: “If It Was Anybody Else, They’d Be Cooked”

Sean 'Diddy' Combs was sentenced to 50 months and fined $500,000 after conviction on two prostitution-related counts, with the judge including acquitted conduct in sentencing.

  • On Friday, October 3, 2025, Judge Arun Subramanian in a New York federal court sentenced Sean 'Diddy' Combs to 50 months and fined him $500,000 after convictions on two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution.
  • Prosecutors argued that Combs organised violent, drug-fuelled parties coercing women and male escorts, described as victims in court testimony, leading to convictions after a seven-week trial.
  • Sean 'Diddy' Combs broke down in court, apologising to accusers and family, telling his mother Janice, `I failed you as a son, and I’m sorry,` as six children including Quincy Taylor Brown attended.
  • Combs' legal team said they will appeal and called the 50-month sentence inconsistent with the jury's verdict, while Mark Geragos voiced concerns about Combs' safety in custody.
  • Critics noted that allowing acquitted conduct to inform sentencing undermines jury verdicts and constitutional protections, while civil-rights observers highlighted racial justice concerns and disagreement between prosecutors and defence counsel.
