Diddy
Sorry For The Pain I Caused So Many …
Current Situation Is My Fault
Published
Diddy is taking responsibility for his actions … telling the judge in his case he’s sorry for all the hurt and pain he’s caused others through his actions.
The rapper filed a four-page letter Thursday ahead of his Friday sentencing hearing … beginning with the apology before admitting the last two years have been the hardest of his life — and there is “no one to blame for my current reality and situation but myself.”
Diddy says he’s learned a lot since he was incarcerated a little more than a year ago … explaining pain became his teacher — and going on to say his “downfall was rooted in his selfishness.”

He addresses the video in which he assaults Cassie in the letter … calling himself “dead wrong” for putting his hands on the woman he loved — adding he doesn’t know if he could forgive someone else for hitting one of his daughters in a similar fashion.
Diddy then goes into the growth he’s experienced during his time in prison … saying he’s happy to be sober for the first time in 25 years. Diddy then asks the judge for mercy, admitting he’s “failed” his children — but he wants the chance to go home and be the parent they’ve always needed him to be. He adds he wants to take care of his 84-year-old mother as well, noting she recently had brain surgery.
He decries the horrible living conditions in MDC Brooklyn … telling the judge he doesn’t want sympathy, but he fears losing his life — and, he assures the judge his time behind bars has scared him straight.
Diddy ends his letter by asking a judge to give him the chance to be a better son, father, community leader — and “another chance to live a better life.”

As you know … Diddy’s hearing kicks off at 10 AM ET tomorrow morning. Prosecutors want the judge to hit Diddy with 11 years in prison — while Diddy’s asking for something closer to 14 months, with credit for the 12-plus months he’s already served.
Diddy’s letter is clearly written from the heart … but, only time will tell if it’s enough to persuade the judge to give him the light sentence he’s hoping for.
