Diddy Sentenced to 50 Months (4 Years) in Prison on Prostitution Charges

Sean “Diddy” Combs has officially been sentenced to 50 months in prison after being convicted in July on two prostitution-related charges. With credit for time served, the music mogul will spend roughly 36 months — or three years — behind bars. Judge Arun Subramanian also hit him with a $1 million fine, the maximum allowed.
Before sentencing, the 55-year-old addressed the court with an emotional apology. He called his past behavior “disgusting, shameful and sick,” admitting he let down his children and failed his mother. “My kids deserve better,” Combs said.
Prosecutors pushed for an 11-year sentence, arguing Diddy remains “unrepentant.” Assistant U.S. Attorney Christy Slavik told the court that Combs had already booked speaking engagements for next week in anticipation of an early release.
“That is the height of hubris, your honor,” she said. “Even now at sentencing for his conviction for two federal crimes … he doesn’t fully grapple with how his actions got him here,” she said.
Defense attorneys urged leniency, requesting no more than 14 months. They presented a 12-minute video showing Combs participating in charity marathons and delivering motivational talks to children, which left him visibly emotional in court.
Combs has been jailed since his September 2024 arrest. He was acquitted of more serious racketeering and sex trafficking charges but convicted on two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution.
