Sean Combs will learn his sentence on Friday after being convicted of two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution. Each count carries a maximum of 10 years in prison. A jury acquitted the music mogul of racketeering and sex trafficking charges in July.

Prosecutors requested a minimum sentence of 11 years, but Combs's attorneys argued for a sentence of no more than 14 months. The defense portrayed him as a reformed man who needs to care for his seven children and elderly mother. A probation office recommended five to seven years.

Cassandra Ventura submitted a letter to the judge requesting justice and accountability. She stated she moved her family from New York City because she feared retaliation. Prosecutors argued that Combs demonstrated decades of abuse and violence.

Combs' legal team asked the judge to consider acquittal or a new trial, challenging the use of the Mann Act that formed the basis for his conviction. Federal Judge Arun Subramanian will decide the final punishment on Friday.
