Federal prosecutors requested at least 135 months in prison for Sean Combs in documents submitted on Tuesday, September 30. The government cited extensive evidence demonstrating criminal behavior spanning more than 10 years. Combs faced conviction on prostitution charges after a trial that resulted in acquittals on sex trafficking and racketeering counts.
The sentencing memorandum referenced substantial psychological and physical harm inflicted on victims. Former employees submitted letters to the court detailing their experiences. Cassie testified during proceedings and described seven years of recovery from abuse. She attributed drug dependency and suicidal thoughts to her time under Combs' control.
Defense attorneys had previously argued that their client should receive no more than 14 months in prison. The court scheduled sentencing for October 3. Prosecutors contended the proposed 11-year term aligns with similar cases involving Mann Act violations.
