Sean "Diddy" Combs is currently on trial for charges related to sex trafficking and prostitution. As of July 2025, he was found guilty of two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution but was acquitted of the more serious charges, including racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking. The charges he was convicted of involve facilitating prostitution involving his former partners. Despite the guilty verdict on these charges, Diddy has denied the more severe allegations and maintains that the sexual activities were consensual. He has been held in custody since his arrest in September 2024 and was denied bail following the verdict. He faces a potential sentence of up to 20 years in prison, with sentencing scheduled for October 3, 2025. The trial included testimonies from several witnesses, including former girlfriends and others who described a lifestyle involving drugs and violence. Diddy's legal team has argued that prosecutors overcharged him and that the case was influenced by his fame and race. In summary, Diddy's current legal situation involves being found guilty of transportation to engage in prostitution with sentencing pending, while he was acquitted of the more severe sex trafficking and racketeering conspiracy charges. He remains in custody as of now awaiting sentencing. This case has drawn significant media attention due to the serious nature of the allegations and his high profile in the music industry.
