Kabla ya kutolewa kwa hukumu, Diddy alimwomba Jaji kwa kusema: “Ukinipa nafasi nyingine, sitakuangusha. Na ushahidi wa hilo ni wale watoto wangu wazuri waliosimama hapa kunisemea.”

Sean “Diddy” Combs was sentenced to only about four years in prison Friday — a paltry term compared to the more than a decade prosecutors sought after a blockbuster, stomach-churning trial exposed the mogul’s depraved secrets.
The disgraced hip-hop icon, 55, could be a free man in just three years as he has already spent 14 months behind bars while the sex-crimes case wound through Manhattan federal court.
Judge Arun Subramanian, at the end of an emotional, nearly six-hour hearing, admonished Combs for using his vast power to abuse women — but ultimately opted to give the Bad Boy Records founder a chance to reclaim his life.
“You abused the power and control that you had over the lives of women you professed to love dearly,” Subramanian told Combs before heading down the sentence of 50 months, with five years supervised release and a $500,000 fine.
“You abused them physically, emotionally, and psychologically,” he said. “Why did it happen so long? Because you had the power and the resources to keep it going, and because you weren’t caught.
“A meaningful sentence is needed to protect the public from further crimes.”
But Combs’ punishment — on a prostitution conviction related to his ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura and an influencer known as “Jane”– was more lenient than the roughly six-to-seven-year term recommended under federal guidelines.
It’s also a far cry from the 14-month, time-served sentence his high-powered defense team argued his prostitution convictions warranted.
Prosecutors, meanwhile, contended the music mogul deserved a prison-term of 11 years, arguing the “unrepentant” Combs had left his victims living in fear.
