A Manhattan federal jury has acquitted music mogul Sean Combs of sex trafficking and racketeering but found him guilty of two lesser charges tied to transporting individuals across state lines for prostitution.
The 55-year-old producer, widely known as “Diddy,” now faces up to 20 years in prison—ten years for each count. Sentencing is pending.

The verdict followed nearly two months of dramatic testimony, including accounts from singer Casandra Ventura and another woman known only as “Jane.” Prosecutors alleged Combs manipulated and coerced both women into sex acts involving male prostitutes, often recorded and arranged by his staff.
They painted Combs as the head of a “criminal enterprise” driven by fear, money, and control. His employees, the court heard, acted with unquestioning loyalty.
