Overview

  • A 166‑page memo from federal prosecutor Jay Clayton asks for a prison term exceeding 11 years, citing the gravity of the conduct and Combs’s lack of remorse.
  • Cassie submitted a three‑page letter warning she fears retaliatory attacks if Combs is released and urging a sentence that reflects victims’ experiences.
  • Judge Arun Subramanian has denied bids for a new trial and pre‑sentencing release, and he is set to impose the sentence today in Manhattan federal court.
  • Combs was acquitted in July of sex‑trafficking and racketeering charges but convicted on two counts of transporting individuals for prostitution.
  • The defense seeks a sentence not exceeding 14 months, noting Combs has been detained since September 2024 at the Brooklyn detention center; the statutory maximum on the two counts is up to 20 years.
