Music mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs is found not guilty of racketeering, and not guilty of sex trafficking ex-partner Casandra Ventura and another woman referred to as “Jane”

He is found guilty of transportation to engage in prostitution, related to both women – he is yet to be sentenced but the charge carries a 10-year maximum prison sentence
