Diddy Walks (Sort Of)!

Diddy walks. 

The pardon is coming.

On July 2, the U.S. District Court of Manhattan has made a decision involving a famous entertainer. This decision will shake hip-hop and the fashion world.

It also shows that being with the elite does protect you from the system.

Sean "Puffy" Combs, the disgraced media mogul was found not guilty on four of the five federal indictments. The charges included:
  • Racketeering Conspiracy
  • Sex Trafficking by Force, Fraud, or Coercion
  • Transportation to Engage in Prostitution
The serious ones was racketeering and sex trafficking by force, fraud and coercion.

He was found not guilty on those charges.

The 54 year old and his lawyers embraced once the decisions were made.

The prostitution charges are not as serious. It does carry up to five years and a sexual offender label. That can be appealed.

The defense won three acquittals, with Combs found guilty of the Mann Act transportation of former girlfriends Cassie Ventura and "Jane."

He was found not guilty of running a criminal enterprise and two counts of sex trafficking.

Known as Diddy, Combs maintained innocence and fought hard despite the allegations of mob behavior.

While in court, he nearly fainted when the counts were read. 

Combs was on his knees in the courtroom with his head down in a chair, seemingly praying after avoiding life in prison on the highest charges in his case.

His family stood in the background, clapping and cheering. The defense attorneys hugged each other, and Combs hugged lawyer Brian Steel.

The judge issued a gag order on jurors to not discuss the verdict until he has cleared them to do so.

U.S. District Judge Arun Subramanian addressed the jury regarding the considerable press that Combs' trial has received over the last several weeks.

He advised the group that members of the media will want to speak to them, but they are free to refuse interviews. Subramanian also asked the media to refrain from asking jurors about their specific deliberations.

What happens in the jury room, stays in the jury room, Subramanian said.

He ended by thanking the jury for their sacrifice and asked them to go to the jury room, where he wanted to personally meet with them.

This verdict will assure he will be let go on a bond while he awaits the sentencing for the prostitution conviction.

Combs in court nearly fainted. He was pleased with the verdict.

Other people will immediately sue him.

The Bad Boy Records, Love Records, Bad Boy Entertainment, Revolt, Sean John, Ciroc and other venues will likely be given up by him.

Combs will likely get a pardon and communion from the president. After all, the president has allegations of sexual assualt and has been known to associate with Combs and Jeffrey Epstein.

President Donald J. Trump stated that he was not closely following the trial but would "certainly look at the facts".

50 Cent posted on Instagram expressing his intention to convince Trump not to issue any presidential pardons, writing "I'm gonna reach out so he knows how I feel about this guy."

Trump has been friends with Combs in their overlapping tenures as celebrities. He has attended at least one of Diddy's now-infamous parties.
