Lawyers for music mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs are urging a federal judge in New York to sentence him to no more than 14 months in prison when he learns his fate on October 3rd. That would mean near-immediate release, since Combs has already spent over a year behind bars following his conviction on two Mann Act charges related to prostitution. They describe Combs’s time in jail as harrowing — from suicide watch and unsafe living conditions to an incident with an inmate armed with a shiv. Prosecutors are expected to push for a much longer sentence, but Combs’s attorneys insist their client is a changed man — sober, mentoring inmates, and ready to rebuild his life. The Grammy winner’s sentencing will determine whether his comeback begins now, or years down the road.
