Lawyers for Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs argue his conviction on prostitution-related charges is ‘unjust’ in appeal

Sean “Diddy” Combs’s attorneys have filed an appeal arguing that the music mogul’s conviction on prostitution-related charges was unjust.
Combs was found guilty on two counts of prostitution-related charges following a weeks-long trial in New York earlier this year. He was then sentenced to 50 months in prison.
In a newly filed appeal, Combs’s attorneys have claimed he was unjustly prosecuted over sex between consenting adults, according to The New York Times.
Combs’s legal team goes on to accuse the judge of making his own determination that women had been “coerced,” “exploited,” and “forced,” into sex, which they said the jury did not find, the outlet reports.
“He sits in prison today, serving a 50-month sentence, because the district judge acted as a thirteenth juror,” his lawyers wrote.
