Sean 'Diddy' Combs verdict explained: What are the charges, why was he acquitted, and what next

Sean “Diddy” Combs, once at the top of the hip-hop world, has been convicted of transporting two women for prostitution but acquitted of sex trafficking and racketeering charges that could have meant life in prison. A federal jury delivered the split verdict after weeks of disturbing testimony and high-profile witnesses. Combs remains in jail awaiting sentencing, with his legal team fighting for leniency while prosecutors press for maximum prison time. His legal troubles are far from over.
