At the final hour, Diddy himself is coming forward. He submitted a letter asking for mercy and explaining he’s a “changed” man. His team released an 11-minute documentary-style video depicting Diddy’s personal and professional accomplishments. And today, he spoke in the courtroom for the first time. He did not testify during the trial.
It’s all in Judge Arun Subramanian’s hands now. Prosecutors want at least 11 years and three months behind bars for violating the Mann Act. His defense is seeking 14 months. Their argument? He’s suffered enough.Six of Diddy’s seven children, including his stepson, Quincy Brown, stepped to the podium to support their dad. Combs’ youngest daughter, Love, is only two years old. Aside from Quincy, Christian, Justin, Chance, and twins D’Lila and Jessie spoke in court.
According to AP, they crowded the
podium, asking the judge to give their dad a second chance. The eldest, Quincy, said his father “has learned a lesson.” Brown claimed that the family has seen him evolve, adding, “He is completely transformed.” Meanwhile, Justin said:
“My father is my superhero. Seeing him broken down and stripped of everything is something I will never forget.Just because he gets sentenced to 70-87 months doesn’t mean he will be locked up for that long.
They’re going to suspend part of it, and give him time served for the rest and then parole Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs isn’t going down without pulling all the stops. His defense pushed for the judge to overturn his convictions. On Tuesday, the judge basically said “nah.” He declined to rewrite Diddy’s “illegal” activity as an amateur pornographer’s work. Still, his defense didn’t let up, sending the judge a slew of character supp Iort and sentencing recommendation letters from Combs’ family, industry peers, and even his former public baes.
