A look at the charges and potential sentencing Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs faces in his sex trafficking trial
- On July 2, the jury of eight men and four women found Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs guilty of two transportation counts but acquitted him of racketeering and sex trafficking.
- Federal investigations led to Combs's September 2024 arrest, with prosecutors accusing him of operating a decades-long coercion scheme involving racketeering and sex trafficking.
- Prosecutors presented evidence including over 30 witnesses, digital records, texts, bank statements, audio recordings, and thousands of seized baby oil bottles during the seven-week trial.
