Not surprisingly, a dark-skinned judge feels sorry for the poor black man who feels soooo bad about his bad behavior. Except Combs likely is only sorry he got caught. He also isn't poor; he's rich enough to buy the cleverest defense of his narcissistic rage toward women.
Combs' “letter of remorse” provided by his VERY expensive lawyers made this all about poor him. Poor me. “My domestic violence will always be a heavy burden that I will have to forever carry.” Social media was rife with criticisms of the victims, characterizing them as greedy liars or foolish and gullible, as if they deserved what they got.
Maybe that in itself will be a lesson for the next women involved in sex trafficking - Get out early.
So Combs essentially did the same things Epstein did and was accused of doing, and Combs received essentially the same amount of prison time as Epstein did in 2008? Is that correct?
There are similarities. Technically, Combs got 50 months in federal prison, but he will likely get time off for good behavior and time served, so he'll probably only serve a year and two months. Epstein got 18 months in a county jail but was allowed to leave the jail during the day, and he served only about 13 months with good behavior. The only lesson here is that it pays to be rich.

That’s more of what I was thinking. “Sweetheart Deals” are there to be had if you’ve got the money and political pull
