Sean “Diddy” Combs has been scheduled to be sentenced on October 3, 2025, after being convicted on two counts of transporting individuals for prostitution, while being acquitted of more serious sex trafficking and racketeering charges. The sentencing date was agreed upon by both defense and prosecution and confirmed by Judge Arun Subramanian. Combs, now 55, has been held in Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center since his arrest in September, and his time served over a year will be credited toward his sentence. Federal guidelines call for 51 to 63 months in prison, though his lawyers recommend a lighter term of about two years. Ahead of sentencing, the defense will file their recommendations by September 19 and prosecutors will follow about a week later. His request for bond was denied due to concerns about his history of violence and potential interference with witnesses. The October sentencing represents a significant turning point in a high-profile legal saga, even as numerous related civil lawsuits continue to unfold.
