Overview
- Court filings made public Wednesday require Sean Combs to turn over the so‑called Ibiza tapes, multiple laptops, phones, tablets, hard drives, and about $9,000 in cash to U.S. Customs and Border Protection for transfer to the FBI.
- Combs was sentenced on October 3 to 50 months in federal prison on two Mann Act convictions and fined $500,000, with credit for more than a year already served at MDC Brooklyn.
- The judgment formalizes five years of supervised release with outpatient drug and mental‑health treatment, a domestic‑violence program, no contact with victims, reasonable‑suspicion searches, a firearms ban, work requirements, and financial monitoring.
- Jurors acquitted Combs of sex trafficking and racketeering conspiracy, while testimony about so‑called freak‑off events and recordings underpinned the prostitution counts.
- Defense lawyers say the videos show consensual activity and are appealing to the Second Circuit, as prosecutors continue to resist defense access to the recordings and the judge declined to grant Combs' request for placement at FCI Fort Dix.
