Watch the scenes outside the Manhattan courtroom where Sean “Diddy” Combs was sentenced to four years and two months, for prostitution-related charges following a two-month trial that unmasked the mogul as a serial domestic abuser and drug addict.
The disgraced music titan, 55, was convicted in July on two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution, also known as the Mann Act, which carries a maximum sentence of 10 years per count.
Combs was acquitted of the more serious racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking charges.
The prosecution was seeking at least 11 years in prison from Judge Arun Subramanian, while the defense argued for a more lenient sentence of 14 months.
Testimony from his ex-girlfriends described graphic details of years of violent, domestic abuse that took place during “Freak offs” – days-long, drug-fueled orgies orchestrated at the rapper’s behest, the court heard.
