Celebrities React To Sean 'Diddy' Combs Trial Verdict
HuffPost
50 Cent, Aubrey O'Day and Rosie O'Donnell all had thoughts about the verdict.
NEW YORK (AP) — Sean “Diddy” Combs was convicted Wednesday of a prostitution-related offense but acquitted of more serious counts that could have put him behind bars for life, drawing divided reactions by his fellow celebrities.
The jury found the music mogul guilty of two prostitution-related counts under the Mann Act, for transportation of star witness Casandra “Cassie” Ventura and a woman using the pseudonym Jane, but acquitted him of trafficking them for sex by using force, fraud or coercion.
They also acquitted him of a racketeering conspiracy charge under the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act.
The Associated Press does not typically name people who say they have been sexually abused unless they come forward publicly, as Cassie has.
Combs, 55, could still face a maximum of 10 years in prison. He also is the subject of a civil case from singer Dawn Richard, said her attorney, Lisa Bloom. Richard testified at the trial that Combs threatened to kill her if she told anyone she saw him abusing his longtime girlfriend.
