Diddy Backs Off Bail, To Remain Locked Up In Hell-Hole Prison Until October

Diddy

Diddy has backed off a request that a federal judge to move up his sentencing and release him from jail and he will remain locked up.

Diddy backed off his push to get sentenced early in a letter his lawyers sent to the court today (July 8) in place of what was supposed to be a virtual hearing on the matter.

Diddy’s lawyers and prosecutors agreed on a schedule leading up to his October 3, 2025 sentencing. Post-verdict motions are due by July 30 and a final pre-sentence report will be filed by September 18.

The disgraced mogul will be sentenced on October 3 following his conviction on two federal charges tied to prostitution-related interstate travel.

The Hip-Hop mogul was found guilty on July 2, after a seven-week trial but acquitted of more serious charges, including sex trafficking involving Cassie Ventura and another woman referred to as “Jane.”

He was also cleared of a racketeering conspiracy count.

Despite avoiding the most severe allegations, Diddy still faces up to 20 years in prison although most legal experts believe he will serve no more than four years.

Last week, Diddy’s legal team had requested that the court expedite his sentencing date and consider granting release based on his personal and family circumstances.

“Mr. Combs has 18-year-old twin daughters, as well as a 27-year-old son with no other living parent,” his attorneys wrote in a court filing. “Mr. Combs’s mother is 85 years old. She suffers from various health conditions. For example, she was hospitalized in July 2024 for a heart condition and had brain surgery the previous year. She lives near Mr. Combs in Florida and she would like him to be her primary caretaker.”

They also noted that Combs has a 3-year-old daughter and has already served nearly 10 months at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, which they described as having “notoriously problematic conditions.”

Federal prosecutors strongly opposed the request, arguing that the law mandates detention after conviction for the crimes Combs was found guilty of. They also cited his history of violence toward women as a reason to deny release.

Cassie Ventura’s legal team also weighed in, urging the court to keep Combs in custody.

“Detention is mandatory post-conviction on these charges, and Ms. Ventura believes that Mr. Combs is likely to pose a danger to the victims who testified in this case, including herself, as well as to the community,” her attorneys stated.
