A jury acquitted Sean “Diddy” Combs of racketeering and sex-trafficking charges but convicted him on two counts of transporting women for prostitution. 

Combs, 55, faces up to 20 years in prison and remains in jail until sentencing on October 3.

Prosecutors accused him of running a criminal enterprise involving violence, drugs, and abuse. 

His defense argued the sex was consensual and cited his drug use and jealousy as the root of past violent acts. 

Diddy’s trial began in New York in May and drew detailed testimonies, which included disturbing details from ex-girlfriends and staff.

The case garnered significant media attention. His lawyer called the verdict a win and vowed to keep fighting.
