After deliberating for three days, the jurors in the Sean “Diddy” Combs Trial have reached a verdict.
According to reports, Diddy was found not guilty on three of the five counts he was charged with. Combs was found guilty of the Mann Act, the transportation of his ex-girlfriend, Cassie Ventura, and a woman only going by the name “Jane.” He was found not guilty of two counts of sex trafficking, Ventura and Jane, as well as the racketeering conspiracy.
This verdict comes after the jury reached a verdict on four out of five counts. They were instructed by the judge to keep deliberating until they came to a verdict on all five counts. Diddy’s two guilty verdicts have a sentence of ten years maximum in jail each.
The media mogul’s attorney, Marc Agnifilo, has asked the court to release his client from federal detention, where he has been for almost a year. However, the government told Judge Subramanian that Diddy should remain in jail until he is sentenced.
Prosecutor Maurene Comney revealed that the government will be seeking the 20-year maximum for Combs. We will keep you posted with updates as this story continues to develop.
