Sean “Diddy” Combs is apparently in disbelief over his four years and two months sentence, and his schedule of events is a glaring indicator of how he thought it would go.

The 55-year-old’s team had already lined him up for speaking arrangements in mid-October prior to his sentencing, which means that they expected him to be out by then.

In addressing the court during the Bad Boy Records founder’s sentencing day, Assistant U.S. Attorney Christy Slavik stated “He has booked speaking engagements in Miami for next week,” referring to the convict.

“That is the height of hubris, your Honor,” she continued to judge Arun Subramanian during her address.

Diddy’s lawyer, Xavier Donaldson attempted to refute the argument by emphasizing that it was to be a teaching engagement instead, since he had already began teaching inmates in prison.

“Contrary to what the government said — and I’m going to say this blatantly — we do need something for him to do if he does get out today,” the record producer’s attorney had said.

However, it seems like the father-of-seven will not be able to make it to his scheduled arrangements like he expected since he has gotten more jail time than him or his team bargained for.

What did Diddy get sentenced to?

Diddy has been sentenced to 50 months in prison after being convicted with two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution.
