A recent report indicates that Sean 'Diddy' Combs has been ordered to surrender his contentious 'freak-off' tapes as part of his sentencing in a federal case pertaining to prostitution. The 55-year-old music mogul was found guilty on two counts of violating the Mann Act, resulting in a 50-month prison term, which accounts for time already served. Under the terms of the ruling, Combs must relinquish several digital devices that contain explicit material, including laptops and smartphones, as well as $9,000 in cash that was confiscated during his arrest in September 2024. The tapes, which played a crucial role in his trial, are believed to have been used to pressure individuals into engaging in unlawful activities. Combs, however, insists that all interactions were consensual and is currently appealing the verdict.
