Overview
- Sean “Diddy” Combs is serving a 50‑month federal sentence and will spend five years on supervised release after Mann Act convictions, with a $500,000 fine imposed.
- A judge ordered Combs to forfeit the so‑called Ibiza/“freak‑off” tapes, multiple devices, and $9,000 in cash, placing them in U.S. Customs and Border Protection custody for transfer to the FBI.
- The seized cache from March 2024 raids includes laptops, hard drives, phones, tablets, and labeled tapes; prosecutors say the materials facilitated the crimes, while the defense argues they depict consensual activity protected by the First Amendment.
- The supervision terms require outpatient drug and mental‑health treatment, an approved domestic‑violence program, no contact with victims, possible searches on reasonable suspicion, a firearms ban, employment expectations, and financial disclosure.
- Combs’ lawyers are preparing a Second Circuit appeal and sought a placement near New York; the Bureau of Prisons will decide housing, and the president has said Combs requested a pardon.
