Sean 'Diddy' Combs' Alleged Drug Mule Brendan Paul Will Avoid Jail Time as He Accepts Plea Deal

Sean "Diddy" Combs' alleged drug mule Brendan Paul will avoid jail time and will accept a plea deal after he was charged with felony cocaine possession last month.

PEOPLE has confirmed that Paul will avoid jail time following his arrest in March for cocaine and marijuana possession amid federal sex trafficking accusations the hip-hop mogul is facing. "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," said Brian Bieber, Paul's attorney, in a statement obtained by PEOPLE. An affidavit obtained by PEOPLE stated that he was taken into custody at Opa-Locka airport by Miami-Dade police working alongside Homeland Security agents, who raided Combs' two homes around the same time that day.
