Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs Allegedly Enrolling in Drug Treatment and Domestic Violence Programs

Hip-hop mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs faces a future sentencing that could significantly reshape his legacy. He’s currently held at Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center, where he has been detained since his September arrest and was denied bail following his conviction on two federal counts of transporting individuals for prostitution. Judge Arun Subramanian confirmed Combs faces formal sentencing on Oct. 3, 2025. In the meantime, rumors suggest Combs is enrolling in drug treatment and domestic violence programs.

Rumors suggest Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs is enrolling in drug treatment and domestic violence programs

Sean “Diddy” Combs is allegedly looking for rehabilitation while behind bars. According to TMZ, Combs enrolled in the STOP Program. The program is court-managed and allows inmates to learn more about sexual assault and domestic and dating violence through courses.

The hip-hop mogul is also allegedly in therapy to help with his past drug abuse. The publication reports that he enrolled in the Dr. Harry K. Wexler drug abuse program. Research led by Wexler demonstrated that those who remained in the program for at least nine months and engaged in aftercare had significantly lower rates of relapse and recidivism. Some sources claim Combs started the drug abuse treatment before his arrest, and he plans to continue it now.

During the trial, the prosecution talked extensively about Combs’ abuse of women and drug use. By entering these programs and showing his commitment to rehabilitation, Combs might hope for a lighter sentence from the judge. His sentencing date is Oct. 3, 2025.
