Diddy's attorney claims his client received a standing ovation after returning to jail following the verdict...
Sean "Diddy" Combs was greeted with a standing ovation by his fellow inmates upon returning to prison after receiving an acquittal for the most serious charges against him, according to one of his attorneys.
On Wednesday, July 2, Combs, 55, was officially acquitted of sex trafficking and racketeering — charges that could have led to life in prison had he been convicted.
The rapper’s lead attorney, Marc Agnifilo, told PEOPLE that Combs’ fellow inmates viewed the acquittal as a sign of hope.
“They all said, ‘We never get to see anyone who beats the government,’ “ Agnifilo said.
Agnifilo went on to describe his client’s overall mental and emotional state, explaining that he typically speaks with Combs four or five times a day.
“He’s doing okay,” Agnifilo told PEOPLE, adding that Combs “realizes he has flaws like everyone else that he never worked on.”
“He burns hot in all matters. I think what he has come to see is that he has these flaws and there’s no amount of fame and no amount of fortune that can erase them," the attorney continued. “You can’t cover them up.”
