Sean “Diddy” Combs got a standing ovation from fellow inmates upon his return to jail after winning acquittals on potential life-in-prison charges, according to his lawyer.

Combs, 55, remains jailed after his Wednesday conviction on prostitution-related charges and could still face several years in prison at an upcoming sentencing after being credited for 10 months already served.

He was, however, found not guilty on the more serious counts of sex trafficking and racketeering conspiracy.

In an interview over the weekend, Diddy’s attorney Marc Agnifilo claimed the verdict might have been the best thing he could have done for Black incarcerated men in America.

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