Sean “Diddy” Combs, the music mogul convicted of transporting his ex-girlfriends and male escorts across state lines for days-long, drug-fueled sex marathons known as “freak-offs,” was sentenced to four years and two months in prison on Friday, marking a dramatic turn in his stunning fall from grace .
The punishment, handed down by U.S. District Court Judge Arun Subramanian, was meant “to send a message to abusers and victims alike that exploitation and violence against women is met with real accountability,” the judge said, according to The New York Times . It also far exceeded what the once-powerful producer had requested. Combs reportedly had his eyes downcast as Subramanian also imposed a $500,000 fine, the maximum possible.
