Prosecutors want Sean 'Diddy' Combs to serve 11 years in prison

Federal prosecutors say Sean "Diddy" Combs should serve more than 11 years in prison after he was found guilty of two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution, ahead of his sentencing on Friday.

Combs was acquitted of more serious racketeering and sex trafficking charges at a trial in July, but convicted of two Mann Act charges that outlaw interstate commerce related to prostitution. The maximum sentence for each charge is 10 years.

In a 189-page submission to Judge Arun Subramanian, U.S. Attorney Jay Clayton wrote that Combs, 55, is "unrepentant" and should be punished after he "engaged in violence and put others in fear."

"Consistent with those cases and based on the corroborated evidence presented at trial, this Court should impose a sentence of no less than 135 months’ imprisonment," the submission said.

Filed just after midnight Monday, the prosecution’s submission contains letters from former employees and associates of Combs pleading with Judge Subramanian to impose a tough sentence.
