For most of the Friday morning, Combs maintained an unreactivated attitude, prosecutors sat in the seat because he accused him of ruining the life of his victims and listened quietly.

“He didn’t need money, the currency was controlled,” the prosecutor says. “This is a defendant who will pose a danger of all ages.”

However, the defense argued that the combs were not “a pimp” and that prostitution accusations were not implemented. “All pimp shares a aggravating factor,” lawyer Jason Driscoll said lawyer. He said. “They make money.”

The conviction was based on the Mann Law, which was adopted in 1910, which accused women and their daughters for “purpose of prostitution or debauchery or for another immoral purpose”. Mr. Driscoll said that the main difference is money and that the combs did not provide financial benefits of crimes.

The Defense painted Combs as a reform, explained his positive contributions in prison in Brooklyn in New York, and referred to the factors in the behavior of an unprocessed trauma and wild drug addiction.

“Mr. Combs personally inspired me,” Defense Lawyer Nicole Westmoreland said. He said. He talked about the combs that started his own record company and clothing line, which he said he inspired other black entrepreneurs and musicians.

He looked at the combs, to hold his tears and sometimes buried his face in his hands.

“There is a man changing man in front of us and ahead of us. Something we haven’t seen for 15 years, Quiny said Quiny Brown.

Delila Combs, 18, begged: “We cannot watch our sister’s growth without a father without a mother … Please, please give our family a chance to recover.”

Later, the Judge Subramanian thanked them by saying that they would help him in his decision.

The combs will receive loans to the 50 -month period for about 13 months before and during the hearing. He will also have to pay a fine of $ 500,000.

After the hearing, Combs’s lawyer Marc Agnifilo said the legal team plans to object to the decision.

In his sentence, the judge said that the actions of the combs were more than being a prostitution consumer as the defense claims and that the combs would not change again if he was released.

The Defense played a 15 -minute video emphasizing Combs’ achievements, and Judge Subramanian admitted that he thought his participation in charity and helping the black community and deep family ties.

However, he rejected the defense as a sincere and conciliatory. He said, “You abused them physically, emotionally and psychologically.”

The judge said that both women are trauma that will last for life. “You had money and power to continue it,” he said. “This was subjugated.”

“The truth of this.”
