Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs returns to court a week before he faces sentencing
Sean 'Diddy' Combs faces sentencing after nearly 13 months jailed; defense seeks time served while prosecutors want several more years behind bars.
- Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs returned to court in New York City to contest his conviction from July, where he was found guilty on two prostitution-related charges and acquitted on three other counts.
- Combs' lawyers argue that he did not engage in sexual acts during the events, claiming this should protect him under the First Amendment.
- Prosecutors assert that Combs facilitated escorts and used footage for blackmail, which justified the conviction.
- Combs faces a potential sentence of up to 20 years, with prison time recommendations from the prosecution due by September 29, ahead of his sentencing hearing on October 3.
