Before Diddy<\/strong><\/a> finds out how long he’s going to prison, he’s got some things to get off his chest … and he’s planning to say it in open court.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

Friday’s hearing in federal court — where Diddy will be sentenced for his conviction on 2 counts of the Mann Act — is a little more interesting now, because he wants to address the judge. In court docs, his attorney Teny Geragos<\/strong> says, “The sentencing proceeding holds significant importance for Mr. Combs. He wishes to appear before the Court, address Your Honor, and allocute in the most dignified and respectful fashion possible.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

Keep in mind, Diddy did not take the stand during his trial, so this will be his first opportunity in court to say anything about the charges he faced, and to address Cassie<\/strong><\/a> or any other victims.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

Perhaps, more importantly, on Friday, it would be a chance to speak to the judge about any potential rehabilitation he’s undergone during his yearlong stay at Brooklyn MDC. As we first reported, Diddy’s been enrolled in<\/strong><\/a> the STOP Program … a course focused on preventing sexual assault, domestic and dating violence.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n
