Music mogul Sean "Diddy" Combs was arrested and indicted on federal charges, including sex trafficking, racketeering, and transportation to engage in prostitution. According to prosecutors, Combs coerced and threatened women to fulfill his sexual desires and protect his reputation.
The indictment alleges that Combs engaged in a pattern of criminal activity, including kidnapping, arson, bribery, and obstruction of justice. Prosecutors say he abused, threatened, and coerced women and others around him since 2008.
During a raid on Combs' homes in Los Angeles and Miami, authorities found firearms, including three defaced AR-15s, and videos of elaborately produced sex performances with multiple victims, referred to as "freak offs." These events often involved multiple commercial sex workers and the distribution of narcotics like ketamine, ecstasy, and GHB to keep victims compliant.
Combs' attorney maintains his client's innocence, claiming that the relationships were mutual and not forced. However, prosecutors are investigating the possibility of additional arrests, suggesting that Combs did not act alone.
The indictment comes amidst a series of civil suits against Combs, including one filed by a member of the girl group Danity Kane and a settlement with singer Cassie, who accused Combs of rape and physical abuse.
