Marc Agnifilo, the lead attorney for the “Act Bad” rapper, told People that his client’s fellow inmates at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, NY, viewed the partial acquittal as a sign of hope.

“They all said, ‘We never get to see anyone who beats the government,’“ Agnifilo said.

The former Manhattan Assistant District Attorney went on to describe Combs’ overall emotional and mental state.

“He’s doing okay,” Agnifilo shared, adding that the Revolt co-founder “realizes he has flaws like everyone else that he never worked on.”

“He burns hot in all matters,” the attorney continued.

“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. You can’t cover them up.”

Last Wednesday, Combs, 55, finally learned his fate in his eight-week sex-trafficking trial after a jury reached a verdict.

The disgraced rapper was found not guilty on two counts of sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion, and on racketeering conspiracy. However, he was convicted on two counts of prostitution, with each charge carrying a maximum of 10 years in prison.

After the verdict was read, Combs’ legal team urged Judge Arun Subramanian to release him on bail pending his sentencing.

Subramanian denied the dad of seven‘s request because his attorneys failed to demonstrate that he posed “no danger to any person.”

Combs’ sentencing hearing is set for Oct. 3.
