SUMMARY: A federal judge denied Sean “Diddy” Combs’ request for bond, keeping him detained until sentencing on October 3. Combs, convicted of two counts of transportation for prostitution under the Mann Act, was acquitted of racketeering and sex trafficking charges, which carry potential life sentences. The judge cited Combs’ violent history and risks to community safety as reasons for denial. Prosecutors portrayed Combs as running a criminal enterprise exploiting women, while defense argued all acts were consensual, dismissing charges as exaggerated. Testimonies from ex-partners Cassie Ventura and “Jane” detailed abuse and coercion during “Freak Offs” and “hotel nights.” The trial lasted seven weeks.

SUMMARY: Isaiah Singleton, previously convicted of sexual battery and public indecency in Georgia, faces new sex crime charges in Florida after being arrested for indecent exposure. In January, Singleton sexually assaulted Alexis Cope in Duluth, Georgia, leaving her traumatized and fearful. Cope bravely came forward to protect others and described the attack’s lasting impact on her life. Singleton, on probation with a 24-month sentence and prior convictions in South Carolina, was caught again in Riviera Beach, Florida, where his DNA linked him to another sexual assault. His new arrest may violate his Georgia probation, leading to further legal consequences. Singleton remains in custody in Florida.

Police in Riviera Beach, FL., arrested Isaiah Singleton and charged him with indecent exposure. Before his arrest there, police confirm he was arrested for the same crime in South Carolina and Georgia. His victim in Georgia said she wants to speak out to keep other people safe.

SUMMARY: Sean “Diddy” Combs was acquitted of the most serious charges of sex trafficking and racketeering conspiracy in a federal trial in Manhattan. Jurors found him not guilty on three counts but convicted him on two counts related to transportation for prostitution, known as the Mann Act, which carry up to ten years each. The jury concluded that while prostitution activities occurred, they were transactional rather than coercive. Combs is expected to appeal the convictions. The verdict is considered a significant outcome given the potential life sentence he faced on the racketeering charge.

Sean “Diddy” Combs has been acquitted of sex trafficking and racketeering charges, but convicted of prostitution charges.
