Sean "Diddy" Combs asked for mercy prior to being sentenced Friday in his Manhattan Federal Court prostitution case, apologizing "for all of the hurt and pain that I have caused," while claiming to be a reformed man and that "God put me here to transform me.""
""Since incarceration, I have gone through a spiritual reset. I'm on a journeythat will take time and hard work. I'm proud to say I'm working harder than I ever have before. I'm committed to the journey of remaining a drug-free, non-violent, and peaceful person," Combs wrote in his more-than-three-page letter to Judge Arun Subramanian on October 2. "I thank God that I'm stronger, wiser, clean, clear, and sober. God makes no mistakes.""
"Combs was arrested on September 16, 2024, after facing allegation after allegation of sex trafficking and sexual abuse. The claims against Combs started the year prior when his ex-girlfriend Casandra "Cassie" Ventura filed suit against him, alleging years of abuse. The suit settled one day later, but numerous accusers have since emerged. Cassie testified against Combs at his Manhattan Federal Court trial, as did "Jane," another former girlfriend who accused him of abuse."
