Overview

• Federal prosecutors asked for at least 135 months in prison and a $500,000 fine, calling Combs unrepentant in a late-night filing.
• Their submission included victim-impact letters, with Casandra 'Cassie' Ventura describing ongoing fear, trauma and a decade of abuse.
• Combs’ lawyers urged a 14-month sentence largely equal to time served and argued the court should not weigh conduct tied to acquitted charges.
• The U.S. Probation Office recommended a lower range of roughly five to seven years, underscoring a sharp split over punishment.
• Combs remains detained at Brooklyn’s MDC after repeated bail denials, and he is set to be sentenced Friday in Manhattan on two Mann Act convictions after acquittals on racketeering and sex trafficking.
