Key Points:
- Judge says a hard term will stop fresh harm. He warns Combs may strike out again
- Court cites Jane’s hotel account and harsh quotes. It says the risk still feels real
- Judge rejects both extremes on jail length. He lands on 50 months as fair
Judge Arun Subramanian gave Sean “Diddy” Combs 50 months. He said a tough term will help stop more harm. The judge spoke in firm and clear words. He said this case needs real and swift proof.
He said Combs claims he is sorry and changed. However, the court saw new harm and clear force. He said this came after Cassie’s suit and the leaked clip. He added that Combs then hit Jane in the head.
Judge explains need for tougher term
The judge read from Jane’s account to the court. “Take this pill, go out there and sk his dk,” she said he told her. “F**k him, I don’t care,” Jane also claimed. The judge said the court doubts real change here.
He added a clear rule for this case. “Exploitation and violence against women need real payback,” he said. “The law must get due regard,” he added. The room fell still as he gave this view.
Court weighs claims, rejects extreme options
Combs took part in some reform class work and plans. However, the court said the full trial record still wins. The judge said 135 months would be too much. He also said more than 11 years felt not sound.
He said 14 months, time served, would be too small. So, he chose a term that sits in the mid. He said this term fits the crime and the proof. He said it may help to stop more harm.
Hours before court, Combs begged the judge for mercy in a note. He blamed past rage on drugs and wild life. He said he prays and works on a new way. The plea did not sway the final call.
Fans still trade views as the clip keeps spread. A rapper showed live love on stream a day prior. Young Thug backed Diddy on Adin Ross’ show. Some fans cheered, while others urged calm words online.
The judge closed with a plain, sharp warning. He said the court does not trust a quick fix. He said more harm could rise if rules go soft. He then set 50 months to mark the line.
