Sean "Diddy" Combs was found guilty of transportation for prostitution but not guilty on racketeering and sex trafficking charges, facing up to 10 years in prison. The verdict followed a trial that revealed a violent culture within his music empire, described as akin to mob operations. Witnesses detailed how Combs allegedly coerced women into sex acts with male prostitutes using force, threats, and drugs. Key testimonies came from three women, including Combs' former lover whose lawsuit triggered inquiries into his conduct.
The verdict is a partial victory for Diddy, whose attorneys argued that prosecutors overcharged him and failed to prove their case.
The jury's decision offers a graphic glimpse into Diddy's life and his near billion-dollar enterprise, characterized by a culture likened to mob family operations.
Prosecutors portrayed Combs as luring female victims under romantic pretenses and using threats and controlled substances to manipulate them into sex acts.
Key testimonies came from three women, including Combs' onetime lover Casandra Ventura, whose lawsuit ignited scrutiny of his enterprise.
