Sean "Diddy" Combs to remain detained ahead of sentencing on prostitution-related charges
CBSN
Sean "Diddy" Combs will remain detained after a jury found him guilty Wednesday of transportation to engage in prostitution in his high-profile trial in New York City. The music mogul was acquitted of the more severe charges of racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking.
Following the seven-week jury trial, Combs' attorneys moved to have him released from the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn where he was held during the trial, arguing that the 55-year-old had been acquitted of the most serious charges and "continued detention of Mr. Combs is inappropriate."
The defense argued Combs should be able to return to his Miami home, emphasizing that this was his first conviction.
