Social media users and entertainment industry players have expressed mixed reactions to Sean \u201cDiddy\u201d Combs’ sex trial split verdict, saying they are eagerly awaiting his sentencing.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span>The 55-year-old was found guilty on two charges of transportation for prostitution<\/a> and <\/span>was acquitted of more serious charges, including sex trafficking.<\/span><\/p>\n

He will remain in custody until his sentencing.<\/span><\/p>\n

The mixed verdict comes nearly 10 months after the music icon was arrested for allegedly running a criminal enterprise and of abusing, threatening, and coercing victims to \u201cfulfill his sexual desires\u201d for two decades.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span>Some Hollywood stars<\/span>, including Diddy’s rival Curtis \u201c50 Cent\u201d Jackson joined the world as reaction to the news poured in.<\/p>\n
