Sean “Diddy” Combs was found guilty of prostitution charges and acquitted on the most serious charges of racketeering and sex trafficking<\/li>\n
Thirty four witnesses testified during the weeks-long trial, including his ex-girlfriend Casandra “Cassie” Ventura<\/li>\n
Combs was accused of coercing women to participate in drug-fueled “freak off” parties and running a criminal enterprise over two decades<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
A Manhattan jury reached a verdict on Wednesday, July 2 finding that Sean “Diddy” Combs was guilty of prostitution charges.<\/p>\n
<\/div>\n
The music mogul was acquitted of the most serious charges – sex trafficking and racketeering – after a seven-week trial.<\/p>\n
<\/div>\n
Combs was found guilty of two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution.<\/p>\n
<\/div>\n
Neama Rahmani, a former federal prosecutor and legal commentator, says Combs may not be given a lengthy sentence.<\/p>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cHe is likely going to get little to no time,” he tells PEOPLE. “He may even get time served and prostitution has a 10 year maximum. But the fact that he was acquitted of the most serious counts, The government would not have brought this case had they thought they could only get prostitution.\u201d<\/p>\n
<\/div>\n
“[This was] a huge overwhelming win by the defense and a tremendous loss for the prosecution,” says Rahmani. “There is no other way to spin it. This is the most expensive prostitution trial in American history.”<\/p>\n

Rahmani says Combs will most likely stay in jail pending a pre-sentence report and a report from U.S. probation but he expects the rapper’s attorneys to ask for a bond to have him released immediately.<\/p>\n

“The judge may actually grant bond because he’s been acquitted of the most serious counts,” says Rahmani. “So I would expect them to make a renewed motion for bond. But even if that motion is denied, he’s going to be out soon.”<\/p>\n
