Diddy‘s alleged mule, Brendan Paul, struck a good deal in his drug case — ’cause he ain’t gonna be doing any time behind bars … TMZ has learned.
Brendan’s attorney, Brian Bieber, tells us … “Brendan accepted the prosecutor’s offer to permit his entry into the diversion program which, after completion, the case against him will be dismissed in its entirety.”
A rep for the Miami-Dade State Attorney confirms this as well, telling TMZ … this was a standard offer to a non-violent defendant with no priors — who was arrested for a possession case instead of a much more serious trafficking case.
The rep confirms Brendan has enrolled in a drug diversion program … which should last about 6 months. Technically, the case and charge are still pending until the course is completed — but there’ll be no jail time or probation if Brendan completes the course without issue. This seems like a best-case scenario for BP … who was charged with a felony drug charge in April.

TMZ broke the story … Brendan was slapped with one felony count of drug possession following his March arrest at the Miami-Opa Locka Executive Airport. Brendan, who previously worked as Diddy’s main assistant, was booked after authorities allegedly found cocaine and marijuana candy in his bag during a search.
The arrest notably occurred at around the same time as raids on the rap mogul’s Los Angeles and Miami homes … as part of an investigation into recent allegations of sex trafficking, illegal gun possession and more.
Diddy — who has faced bombshell claims in 5 different civil lawsuits, all of which he’s vehemently denied — was not detained following the raids. His attorney, Aaron Dyer, maintained his client’s innocence … slamming the raids as an “excessive show of force.”
