00:00Sean Diddy Combs was just found not guilty of sex trafficking and dracketeering. He was however

00:11felon. Instead of facing up to life in prison, Combs is now facing up to 20 years behind bars.

00:23hours of jury deliberations and more than six weeks of testimony from 34 government witnesses,
00:28including Combs' ex R&B singer Cassie Ventura. Guilty or not, the allegations against Diddy have
00:35dealt a major blow to his reputation as one of the most successful hip-hop stars in the
00:40entertainment industry. He's also facing more than 50 civil lawsuits, accusing him of sexual assault,
00:46rape, drugging, and other forms of violence. Assistant U.S. Attorney Christy Slavik in her

00:57who refused to take no for an answer. In his closing argument, Combs' lead lawyer,
01:02Mark Agnofillo, told the jury the case was about four things. Love, jealousy, infidelity, money.
