But they found him not guilty of two counts of sex trafficking and one count of racketeering, which were the more severe charges in this case.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"mb-8\">\n<p class=\"font-lora text-dark-grey !leading-[1.9125rem] break-words text-[17px] lg:text-lg\">As for what the jury actually convicted Combs for, these crimes reportedly do not carry a mandatory minimum prison sentence. On the other hand, each count carries a maximum sentence of 10 years each. This could result in 20 years behind bars if each sentence reaches the maximum and if they run consecutively rather than concurrently. Also, this opens up the question of whether or not Judge Subramanian will credit the time Diddy has already served in jail.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"mb-8\">\n<p class=\"font-lora text-dark-grey !leading-[1.9125rem] break-words text-[17px] lg:text-lg\">Then again, this is all heavy legal speculation that only the court has any real authority on.
