SEAN 'DIDDY' COMBS TO BE SENTENCED IN OCTOBER

Sean “Diddy” Combs will be sentenced on Oct 3 for his conviction on prostitution-related charges, following a split verdict that saw him acquitted for crimes that carried more serious punishment.

The music mogul was found not guilty of sweeping racketeering and sex trafficking charges after the marathon trial in which he was accused of harrowing abuse.

But the jury found him guilty of two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution, each of which carries a maximum sentence of 10 years in prison.

It is unlikely the judge will impose the maximum punishment.

Prosecutors have said in court filings that based on federal sentencing guidelines, a range of 51 to 63 months imprisonment potentially would be appropriate — but they could also ask for a longer punishment.

His defence, also interpreting federal sentencing guidelines, has indicated they plan to propose lighter sentencing of 21 to 27 months.
