Sean “Diddy” Combs is going to trial, but he’s going to be sitting in jail for months. The disgraced music mogul’s trial date has been set to start in May 2025.
Per various reports, Judge Arun Subramanian scheduled a trial date of May 5, 2025 at a hearing on Thursday, October 10. Diddy’s legal team had reportedly requested the trial to occur in April or May.
However, while the defense got a date they wanted, Diddy was once again denied bail, his third attempt at a pre-trial release.
NEW: A federal judge in Manhattan has set a May 5, 2025 trial date for Sean “Diddy” Combs’ racketeering and sex trafficking case.

Diddy was arrested in New York City on September 16 and has been jailed at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn on charges that include racketeering and sex trafficking.
The “Been Around The World” rapper has pleaded not guilty while the court of public opinion has been slamming him ever since his former girlfriend and ex-Bad Boy artist Cassie sued him back in late 2023. That lawsuit essentially set everything in motion, with soon after its settlement multiple lawsuits were filed alleging similar accounts of sexual abuse, a video surfaced of Diddy beating on Cassie (that confirmed an account described in her lawsuit) and in September, Diddy’s indictment.
Combs’ mother, Janice Combs, who recently described her son’s prosecution as a lynching, was in attendance along with several of his children.
