Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs Is Appealing His Criminal Conviction and Sentencing – But Panel Judges Seem Skeptical of His Argument

Diddy is appealing his conviction and sentence

Diddy is hopeful, but the judges appear unconvinced.

Around 10 months ago, disgraced hip-hop mogul Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs was sentenced to a 50-month prison sentence.

Today, his lawyers presented his plea before an Appeals court, questioning both his conviction for ‘transportation to engage in prostitution’ and his sentencing.

Reuters reported:

“A lawyer for Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs said on ​Thursday judges should not be allowed to consider conduct relating to charges for which a defendant has been acquitted ‌in determining a sentence, urging an appeals court to overturn the hip-hop mogul’s conviction on prostitution charges and his prison sentence.

‘This case presents an important issue about a respect for jury verdicts and public confidence in our criminal justice system’, defense lawyer Alexandra Shapiro told the Manhattan-based 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals during ​arguments in an appeal by Combs of his conviction and sentence of four years and two months in prison.”

ABC News reported:

“A three-judge panel of the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals appeared skeptical on Thursday of Sean Combs’ argument that his prison sentence should be reduced because the judge unlawfully punished Combs as if he had been found guilty of more serious crimes.”

[…] Combs is serving a four-year prison sentence, which defense attorney Alexandra Shapiro said treats him as if he had been convicted of the more serious counts. She urged the appeals court to reduce the sentence ‘to ensure that not guilty really means not guilty’.”

The appellate judges deemed it constitutional for judge Arun Subramanian to consider ‘all of Combs’ conduct in establishing a sentence’.

“’We have two women who were plied with drugs to participate in this, one of whom became an opioid addict, so doesn’t that support the reasonableness of this?’ Judge M. Miller Baker asked.”

“Lives a Double Life” – Sex Content Creator Posted Graphic Videos of Sex Acts with Secret Service Agent on OnlyFans (PHOTO)

A sex content creator has posted graphic videos of sex acts with a Secret Service Agent on OnlyFans.

OnlyFans is a subscription-based platform where content creators are paid by subscribers.

Virtually 80% of the content posted to OnlyFans is pornographic and sexually explicit.

According to RealClearPolitics reporter Susan Crabtree, the sex content creator, identified as Brittany Jones, claimed to be making “adult content” with her Secret Service agent boyfriend, William W. Foy Jr.

“My boyfriend lives a double life,” Brittany Jones wrote on Facebook. “Guarding the president by day [sic] then making adult videos with me by night. We see you Hannah Montana lol.”

A source told Susan Crabtree that Foy is assigned to Joe Biden’s detail.

Via Susan Crabtree:

A woman identified as Brittney Jones this weekend posted on Facebook and her BritneyJonesxx Instagram account what appears to be a photo of a Secret Service agent’s USSS ID with a statement claiming that the agent is her “boyfriend” who “lives a double life” protecting the president “by day” and making “adult content” with her “by night.”

Jones, who appears to be the same woman who accused former Patriots Wide Receiver Stefon Diggs of having sex with her last year while he was in a relationship with Cardi B, posted what looks like the Secret Service ID of William W. Foy, Jr., along with a lurid caption.

In a separate video posted to Instagram with the title, “When your boyfriend works for the Secret Service,” Jones displays her mid-drift while handling what appears to be a long spear.

Another video shows the woman on the passenger side of the vehicle while the same man is driving. Jones is wearing a blond wig and seductively sucks her finger while asking the man how to pronounce his last name.

Yet another post from Jones shows the same man coring a pineapple in a kitchen. Jones posted the photo with this caption: “The only guy who could ever tame me “Michael Foy,” [sic]” with a skeptical emoji.

Posts on the britneyjonesxx are more salacious, including a photo of a check titled “75k to get an abortion” with a skeptical emoji and several more explicit posts with photos of men she claimed to have sex with. The same video with Jones’ mid-drift displaying the spear appears on the xx account.

There’s music in the background, and the accompanying statement says, “Just finished sharpening my boyfriends [sic] work gear.”

The Secret Service didn’t immediately return a request for comment. One source said Foy is assigned to the Biden detail.

A woman named Brittney Jones, identified as an OnlyFans creator in media reports, made similar accusations in 2025 and earlier this year on social media platforms, including Facebook and Tiktok, claiming a sexual relationship with Diggs.

Jones’ accusations came while Diggs was reportedly involved with rapper Cardi B. Diggs’ attorney, Kent Schaffer, accused Jones of extortion, alleging that Jones threatened to go public unless he paid her money.

Rich Staropoli, a retired Secret Service agent with a 25-year career who also served as the chief information officer for the Homeland Security Department, said the posts are indicative of the agency’s low hiring standards in recent years.

“It’s another distracting incident the Secret Service has to deal with when they should be out there protecting the president,” he told RealClearPolitics. “It speaks to the hiring and the screening of these people, and more importantly, who’s taking any corrective action once this stuff comes to light?”

The Secret Service has not responded to RealClearPolitics request for comment amid another scandal in the agency.

This is just the latest scandal to rock the Secret Service.

Last month, a Secret Service Agent was suspended for not properly disclosing her relationship and marriage to a foreign national.

Myosoty Perez secretly married a Brazilian woman in April 2025 and did not notify the agency until this January, according to Real Clear Politics.

Rep. Anna Paulina Warns Of ‘Major Purge’ Coming to Capitol Hill — Says At Least Three More Members Could Be Exposed (VIDEO)

Anna Paulina during her interview with Catherine Herridge.

Florida Rep. Anna Paulina Luna has warned of a “major purge” coming on Capitol Hill of lawmakers with “skeletons in their closets.”

Following the spectacular fall of California Rep. Eric Swalwell following a host of sexual assault and rape allegations, there is growing speculation that other individuals may be next.

Texas Rep. Tony Gonzales also resigned his seat last week amid ongoing criticism about his affair with an aide who later committed suicide.

In an interview with reporter Catherine Herridge, Rep. Luna said that she beleives three others may face similar accusations in the following weeks.

Here is a transcript of the exchange:

HOST: Do other house members have skeletons in their closets?

LUNA: Yes.

HOST: How many?

LUNA: I’d say right now there are about two House members, likely one Senator.

But I think this right now is freaking a lot of people out and also this is something we have been pushing for, but we wanted to release the Congressional slush fund.

HOST: Is this the beginning of a major purge?

LUNA: I think so.

HOST: How many members are we talking about?

LUNA: Well as of right now there is probably about htree between the House and the Senate.

HOST: Three? But there could be more?

LUNA: There could be more. There is always rumors but rumos aren’t always true. It is what is in evidence.

Watch the clip below:

In his resignation notice posted earlier this week, Swalwell said he would give up his seat but continued to deny any criminal wrongdoing.

“I am deeply sorry to my family, staff, and constituents for mistakes in judgment I’ve made in my past,” Swalwell said.

“However, I must take responsibility and ownership for the mistakes I did make,” he said.

Swalwell had been leading the polls for the California governor’s race before the scandal broke.

“Expelling anyone in Congress without due process, within days of an allegation being made, is wrong,” he continued.

”But it’s also wrong for my constituents to have me distracted from my duties. Therefore, I plan to resign my seat in Congress.”

A 44-year-old Iranian woman living in the United States with a green card was arrested Saturday night at Los Angeles International Airport for allegedly brokering massive arms deals for the Iranian government, including sales of armed drones, bombs, bomb fuses, and millions of rounds of ammunition destined for Sudan.

Shamim Mafi, who was living in Woodland Hills in Los Angeles, faces a federal charge under 50 U.S.C. § 1705 for violating the International Emergency Economic Powers Act by facilitating the illegal export and sale of Iranian-made weapons.

If convicted, she faces a statutory maximum of 20 years in federal prison.

According to First Assistant U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli for the Central District of California, Mafi allegedly used an Oman-registered company to arrange the transactions as recently as 2025.

One reported deal involved a contract worth more than $70 million for Iranian-made Mohajer-6 armed drones supplied by Iran’s Ministry of Defense and Armed Forces Logistics.

Prosecutors also allege phone records show Mafi had direct contact with Iran’s Ministry of Intelligence and Security between December 2022 and June 2025.

The alleged gunrunner has posted glamorous photos of herself from all over the world. In one photo, she is seen posing in a $100,000 Mercedes-Benz roadster.

The New York Post reports:

Mafi, who left Iran in 2013 and became a permanent resident of the US in 2016 under the Obama administration, allegedly used an Oman-registered company, Atlas International Business, to broker weapons deals as recently as 2025, according to court records.

Among the sales was a contract for more than $70 million for Iranian-made Mohajer-6 armed drones from Iran’s Ministry of Defense and Armed Forces Logistics.

The drones, along with 55,000 bomb fuses, were transferred in deals with the Sudanese Ministry of Defense, which has been fighting in a bloody civil war since 2023.

Iran has been repeatedly accused of violating a United Nations arms embargo amid the Sudanese civil war, with its drones spotted in use by the government forces.

Mafi was taken into custody at LAX on Saturday night and is expected to make her initial appearance Monday afternoon in U.S. District Court in downtown Los Angeles.
