At a hearing following his conviction, Judge Arun Subramanian denied a defense request for Combs to be released on $1 million bail, saying his attorneys had conceded during the eight-week trial that he was violent in his personal relationships and had failed to prove that Combs does not pose a danger to others.

Sean “Diddy” Combs was “no ordinary john,” but a violent and controlling mastermind of perverse sex sessions where participants were drugged and brutalized, prosecutors wrote in new court papers opposing his latest bail bid — and indicating they’ll push for a longer prison term than expected.

Prosecutors said they now expect music mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs could face a prison sentence “substantially higher” than the four to five years they once thought he was likely to face after his conviction on two prostitution-related charges.
