Diddy’s family members have revealed what the rapper’s next move will be after receiving his stunning ‘second chance at life’ verdict on Wednesday.  

Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ brother-in-law expressed his excitement at the rapper’s chance to ‘flip things around’ and start his life afresh after being found not guilty for the majority of the federal charges lodged against him.

Combs was found guilty of two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution – but was found not guilty of racketeering conspiracy and two counts of sex trafficking.

Now, he has the chance to help others and use everything ‘for good,’ his family said. 

Diddy’s sister’s husband told Daily Mail: ‘Diddy has the opportunity now to flip things around. He’s a drug addict and sex addict and he can now help other people.

‘He doesn’t need to go back to the fame and all that. He got a brand new chance now to use everything for good.’

‘Diddy can’t read music or play an instrument or anything like that but he got an ear. That’s his genius,’ the family member added following the shocking trial. 

‘The family is relieved that’s all I can say. I don’t know what they gonna give him but it’s all good,’ he said.

Diddy was denied bond on Wednesday night – and it is still unclear how much time he will spend in prison for his crimes. Prosecutors are seeking the 20 years maximum sentence. Diddy’s sentencing is set for October 3.  

Earlier on Wednesday, Combs’ mom Janice, 85, told Daily Mail: ‘I feel incredible. I feel good,’ moments after her son was cleared of sex trafficking and racketeering charges. 

Diddy, 55, was convicted of a prostitution offense but the star’s children also said they were delighted by the verdict at Manhattan federal court house.    

‘First thing I’m gonna do is hug my Pops!’ Christian Combs, known professionally as King Combs, told Daily Mail in jubilation as he celebrated his father’s victory in an elevator at the Manhattan federal court house. 

‘I am so happy,’ Justin Combs, 31, added. Christian, 27, said: ‘We were hopeful but you never know.’ 

It was a different story across town, where a deflated Cassie Ventura, Diddy’s ex-girlfriend and the star witness, reacted with horror to the jury’s findings. 

Her lawyer told CNN she was not impressed with Diddy’s lawyer’s characterization of her as a ‘winner’. 

The mother-of-three, who testified while eight months pregnant, is holed up inside her Manhattan home. Cassie’s husband Alex Fine was spotted leaving his house alone, then returning with the couple’s children shortly afterwards while looking somber.

The megastar smiling and clasping his hands in prayer, appeared relieved and thrilled as the jury foreman delivered the verdict. Some spectators yelled out in joy.

The court also broke out in applause as the music mogul left the courtroom. 

Combs and his loved ones are relieved by the verdict, while key witness Cassie Ventura and her family are ‘trying to look forward’.

Christian and Justin, accompanied by their girlfriends and Diddy’s friend of 40 years music producer Charlucci Finney, rejoiced as they headed out of court Wednesday.

Christian and Finney led rousing screams and cheers in the elevator, as Justin looked overcome with emotion. 

Finney, who was near tears, told the Mail: ‘I just didn’t know which way it was gonna go. I haven’t even processed this yet. Man it’s incredible he’s gonna be coming home.’ 

The judge received the note with the jury’s verdict at 9.52am local time, he told the court. When the jury foreman read the three counts of not guilty, several spectators erupted with joy.

Diddy’s mother Janice Combs remained stoic until she hugged her sister. The twins rubbed their heads together when the not guilty verdicts were read.

Combs’s family members have been present throughout the trial since it began in early May. 

Janice waved at cameras as she left the building with a smile on Wednesday.

The defense wants Diddy released on a $1 million bond, but the prosecutors have pushed back. A ruling on the matter is expected later today.

‘It feels great,’ defense attorney Marc Agnifilo told the Mail of the verdict after he exited the courtroom.
