Episode Synopsis

After a seven-week federal trial in New York, Sean “Diddy” Combs was found guilty on two counts of transportation for prostitution (for allegedly arranging for two former partners and others to engage in paid sex across state lines). He was acquitted of the more serious charges—racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking. Judge Arun Subramanian denied bail, citing evidence of Diddy’s history of domestic violence and the prosecution’s argument that he posed a risk to witnesses and the community. Sentencing is scheduled for October 3, 2025, with prosecutors seeking 4–5 years in prison under federal guidelines, while the defense recommends a shorter term of 21–27 months. *DISCLAIMER - this episode does contain some graphic accounts of allegations of sexual abuse
