Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs to be sentenced October 3

The judge overseeing Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ federal trial has scheduled sentencing for October 3, despite both prosecution and defense attornies asking for an earlier date.

Combs, 55, was denied bond last week after being convicted on pr0stitution-related charges.He was acquitted of s£x trafficking and racketeering. That outcome apparently led to his fellow inmates giving him a standing ovation when Combs returned to jail. 

“They all said: ‘We never get to see anyone who beats the government,'” attorney Marc Agnifilo told The Associated Press in a weekend interview days after the jury reached its verdict.

Combs remains jailed in a federal lockup in Brooklyn.

Prior to the hearing, the defense first filed a letter saying both sides agreed on a sentencing date of Sept. 22, but then the defense filed another letter with the court saying, “The parties propose the court’s original date of October 3, 2025.”

A short time later, the judge signed off on the sentencing date and other agreed-upon scheduling.

The maximum possible sentence for each of the two guilty counts is 10 years in prison. He’s already served 10 months, which will be credited against whatever he is sentenced to.
