Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs Asks Federal Appeals Court for the Reversing of His Conviction and Immediate Prison Release

Diddy is appealing his conviction and sentencing – again.

While the Netflix documentary produced by Curtis ‘50 Cent’ Jackson is generating another wave of really bad press for disgraced rap mogul Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs, his legal defense team is hard at work trying to get him out of prison.

Last Tuesday (23), his lawyers asked a federal appeals court in New York ‘to order his immediate release from prison and reverse his conviction on prostitution-related charges’.

If that is not possible, they ask that the court direct his trial judge, Arun Subramanian, to lighten his fifty-month sentence.

Associated Press reported:

“The lawyers said in a filing with the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Manhattan that Combs was treated harshly at sentencing by a federal judge who let evidence surrounding charges he was acquitted of unjustly influence the punishment.”

This is Diddy’s second appeal, after he filed a ‘Notice of Appeal’ back in October.

He was acquitted of racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking at trial, but convicted for transportation for prostitution charges.

“Lawyers for Combs said Judge Arun Subramanian acted like a ‘thirteenth juror’ in October when he sentenced Combs to four years and two months in prison. They said he erred by letting evidence surrounding the acquitted charges influence the sentence he imposed.

They noted that Combs was convicted of two lesser counts, prostitution offenses that didn’t require force, fraud, or coercion. They asked the appeals court, which has not yet heard oral arguments, to acquit Combs, order his immediate release from prison or direct Subramanian to reduce his sentence.”
