Justin Combs has taken a plea deal in his DUI case, which will allow him to avoid any jail time from the incident.
According to legal documents, obtained by The Blast, Combs pleaded no contest to a blood alcohol content of 0.08% or higher. Another charge of driving under the influence was dismissed.
In July, the son of music mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs was arrested by the Los Angeles Police Department after being pulled over for a minor traffic offense. Following a pre-trial hearing in August, Justin is now serving his sentence.

In the plea agreement, Justin was sentenced to three years of brief probation. In addition, the “Catfish: The TV Show” star must “enroll in and participate in and successfully complete a 3-month licensed first offender alcohol program and other drug education and counseling programs.”
It should be noted, that DUI charges rarely result in jail time especially if you are a first time offender. But, if the person gets multiple DUIs, or doesn’t stay out of trouble during probation, it can be a quick trip to the slammer.
According to reports, on June 4, 2023, the LAPD pulled Justin over around 8 a.m. on the day of the incident for a traffic violation. At the time, he was taken into custody because police claimed there was enough probable cause to book him for allegedly driving under the influence. The podcast host, however, wasted no time paying his bond, which was set at $5,000, and was out of jail immediately.
His arrest caused a stir between his famous father and his mother, Misa Hylton, who often accused the “Act Bad” rapper of leading her son down a corrupt path.

Following Justin’s headline-grabbing arrest, Hylton took to social media to call out his former partner. “I’m not protecting anyone anymore. Only my son. I’m not with any of those reality TV—. When is enough?” He wrote.
Referencing his hit song with his love interest Yung Miami, which was trending at the time, the fashion designer appealed to the father of his son, writing, “Acting BAD. Bad boy. I used to want to be a BAD Girl who chose to be a QUEEN. They are tried and true. I’m not perfect, but I’m on purpose. The statement “the fish rots from the head down” means that, in addition to being the main contributing factor in the success of a family or organization, leadership is also the cause of its failure and death.
He slammed the successful record executive for his poor parenting, pointing out that his 29-year-old son was under his father’s care when he was in trouble with the law. “The truth will set you free. I should have kept my child with me … Everyone can get it.”

Justin’s Mom Blames Diddy For DUI Case
The iconic fashion stylist, who has worked with big names in Hip-Hop like Lil Kim, continued his rant, bringing Diddy’s legal dispute over his alcohol brand into the mix.
“How do you go from one of the greatest ever to making all your money from alcohol and suing the damn alcohol company?” he complained. “Sell something healthy that builds people. I’m fed up. NOT MINES. Everyone has to sit around for years and act like there’s nothing wrong with them. This is where the buck stops with me. If anything happens to my son, INSHYAALLAH. What will be said to me?”
Hylton also took a shot at UCLA, where his son played football in 2016 and received an athletic scholarship as a defensive tackle. Despite Justin’s arrest and Hylton’s backlash, the Bad Boy Records founder hasn’t publicly addressed his son’s troubles with the law at any point.
