(Elizabeth Williams via AP, File) 1 2 S ean "Diddy" Combs can't go home from jail to await sentencing on his prostitution-related conviction, a judge said Monday, denying the rap and style mogul's latest bid for bail. Combs has been behind bars since his September arrest. He faced federal charges of coercing girlfriends into having drug-fueled sex marathons with male sex workers while he watched and filmed them. He was acquitted last month of the top charges - racketeering and sex trafficking - while being convicted of two counts of a prostitution-related offense. What Happens Next In denying Combs' $50 million bond proposal, Judge Arun Subramanian said the hip hop impresario hadn't proven that he did not pose a flight risk or danger, nor shown an "exceptional circumstance" that would justify his release after a conviction that otherwise requires detention. Combs' arguments "might have traction in a case that didn't involve evidence of violence, coercion or subjugation in connection with the acts of prostitution at issue, but the record here contains evidence of all three," the judge wrote. Prosecutors declined to comment on the ruling. Messages seeking comment were sent to Combs' lawyers.
