Sean Combs faces sentencing on Friday, October 3, after his conviction on two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution. His defense team argues he should receive no more than 14 months, citing time already served and his rehabilitation efforts. USA TODAY will provide live updates from outside the courtroom.
Combs plans to address Judge Arun Subramanian at the hearing. In a letter to the court, he apologized for the harm caused by his actions and expressed his commitment to personal growth. His attorneys also seek permission to present an 11-minute video highlighting his charitable work and testimonials from supporters.
Federal prosecutors recommend an 11-year prison term and a $500,000 fine for the music executive. The charges carry a maximum penalty of 20 years behind bars. Combs' legal team maintains he has demonstrated sufficient change to warrant returning home to his family.
