Sean "Diddy" Combs is back in court on Tuesday for a post-trial hearing on his sentencing schedule. CBS News' Katrina Kaufman has the latest.

Sean "Diddy" Combs returned to court for a post-trial hearing focused on setting a date for his sentencing, following his conviction on two of five criminal charges related to sex trafficking and racketeering. The defense is pushing for an earlier sentencing date, while the judge has tentatively set it for a later time, citing significant differences between the prosecution and defense regarding the length of sentence.

Combs has been detained for ten months, which will be credited toward any sentence imposed. The judge denied bail due to concerns raised by witness statements and the nature of the charges, with letters from key witnesses expressing fears for their safety if Combs were released. The defense maintains arguments for a shorter sentence, but the court has not yet reached a final decision.

Sean "Diddy" Combs back in court for post-trial hearing

Welcome back. Sean Diddy Combs will be back in court today for a post-trial hearing. The court is formulating a sentencing schedule that's supposed to happen in October. The hearing comes less than a week after Combs was convicted of two of the five criminal charges in his sex trafficking and racketeering case. CBS News legal reporter Katrina Kaufman has been following every piece of this and joins us now from outside the courthouse where I think you live by now. You must know everybody's names. You know all the kind of the crews there back with you. You're a little family. So Katrina, what's supposed to happen today? We know that from Diddy's lawyers, they said that he was greeted with cheers back in the detention center after the verdict. So what business needs to be done in the courtroom today? That's all true, Errol. Today what's happening is that Sean Combs' team says they want this sentencing to happen as soon as possible. Last week the judge had tentatively set it for October. They want it much sooner. Last week, Sean Combs' attorney Mark Agnifolo was even saying that he'd be willing to waive the ordinary probation report. The judge didn't want to do this though, Errol. He said the parties here are just too far apart in their viewpoints about this sentencing. The maximum here is 20 years, although last week the prosecution after doing some calculations was then estimating more like at least five or six years. The defense was projecting more like two years. So there's just a really big divide here. It's also important to note that Combs has already been detained for 10 months now. So that will count towards whatever his sentence is. And his defense team says they just feel that they have strong arguments for a short sentence. They want this as soon as possible. It's also worth noting that you can't appeal until after your sentencing. So that could be on their minds as well. And if we remember the judge denied bail for Combs, I think because of some of the allegations made in court. I'm not, you know, clarify for us why that was and how likely is it that he walks free soon? So Errol, what the judge said here is that one of the factors he takes into account is whether the defendant poses a danger or a threat. And there were also two letters submitted in addition to what the prosecution submitted to the judge. One from Cassie Ventura, that's Sean Combs' ex-girlfriend, a key witness in this trial. And she was tied to some of those charges against him. And another from Deontay Nash, another witness, a friend of Cassie. He had worked with Combs, both witnessed and experienced his violence. And they both said that they felt unsafe with Sean Combs being released. They think he poses a danger to the victims, to the witnesses in this case. Deontay Nash said that he feared retaliation. And what the judge ultimately said is that the defense, his whole defense was this was domestic violence, Sean Combs' actions. They never denied his violence. And as a result, it's just impossible for them to say that Sean Combs does not pose any danger if he's released. And on that basis, he is keeping him detained for now. Yeah. Serious accusations and Sean Combs' defense all around. Katrina Kaufman across all of it for us. Thank you very much.
