Sean “Diddy” Combs, the hip-hop mogul, has been given a release date from federal prison: May 8, 2028. The 55-year-old was sentenced to 50 months (over 4 years) in October 2025 after being convicted of two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution but acquitted of more serious charges like sex trafficking and racketeering.
8-week trial. Key witnesses: ex-girlfriend *Cassie Ventura* (testified to abuse) and “Jane” (pseudonym).
Footage of Diddy violently attacking Ventura (2016) shown in court.
Guilty of lesser charges. Faces 70+ civil lawsuits (denied by Diddy)
Judge Arun Subramanian called it “subjugation,” not “consensual sex.”
Diddy’s team is challenging the conviction.
