Diddy's Lawyers Make SHOCKING Move to FREE Him From Prison NOW

Описание: Sean “Diddy” Combs is asking a federal appeals court in New York to overturn his conviction on prostitution-related charges and order his immediate release, or alternatively reduce his four-year sentence.
Combs, 56, is currently serving a 50-month prison term in New Jersey after being convicted in July on two counts of transportation for prostitution under the Mann Act. Jurors acquitted him of the more serious racketeering and sex-trafficking charges.
In their filing with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, his attorneys argue that the sentence was unfairly harsh because the trial judge, Arun Subramanian, improperly relied on evidence tied to charges on which Combs was acquitted. They contend the judge acted like a “thirteenth juror” by incorporating allegations of coercion and exploitation that the jury had rejected.
⚖️ Key Arguments in the Appeal
• Excessive Sentence: Combs’s lawyers say typical Mann Act convictions without coercion result in less than 15 months, making his 50-month term unprecedentedly severe.
• Improper Findings: They argue the judge’s statements that Combs “coerced” and “exploited” former partners inflated the punishment despite the jury rejecting those claims.
• Relief Requested: The appeal asks the court to vacate the conviction, order immediate release, or send the case back for resentencing without considering acquitted conduct.
📅 Next Steps
• The government has until February 20 to respond.
• Combs’s team will file a reply by March 13.
• Oral arguments have not yet been scheduled.
🔍 Broader Context
This filing marks another chapter in Combs’s high-profile legal battle, which has drawn intense media attention and public debate. Legal analysts note that while challenges to the use of acquitted conduct at sentencing are significant, success is far from guaranteed. The outcome may hinge on whether the appeals court agrees that the judge exceeded her authority.
Combs is currently scheduled for release in May 2028 if the conviction and sentence stand.
