Diddy Sentencing Breakdown: Prosecutor Explains What’s Really at Stake
This isn’t about guilt anymore. That part’s done.
Now the real weight kicks in.
Federal prosecutors want 11+ years behind bars. Diddy’s defense team wants 14 months and therapy. And the judge? He has to decide how much of Sean Combs’ past — and his power — should shape what happens next.
In this episode of Hidden Killers, criminal defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis joins us to break down what this sentencing really means — not just for Diddy, but for the entire justice system watching what happens when celebrity, abuse allegations, and federal sentencing law collide.
We cover:
•
• Why federal prosecutors are pushing to apply sexual abuse cross-references • — even without a conviction on those charges
•
•
•
• What the victim statements • from Cassie Ventura and others can legally influence
•
•
•
• Whether pretrial detention at MDC Brooklyn • counts for anything
•
•
•
• If fame helps or hurts a defendant in front of a federal judge
•
•
•
• And how §3553(a) factors — like deterrence, public trust, and the message sent to survivors — shape sentencing far more than just the guidelines
•
•
We also explore what Diddy’s legal team might say in mitigation, whether allocution helps or backfires, and what the judge’s language on Friday could reveal — about this case and the system as a whole.
If you’re wondering why Diddy could walk with time served… or face nearly a decade in prison — this is the legal roadmap you’ve been waiting for.
