Renowned hip-hop mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs is currently facing a tough legal battle as he sits in federal custody awaiting trial on charges of racketeering and sex trafficking.
His recent arrest in New York has shed light on a series of civil suits alleging sexual assault and physical violence, with some of the allegations dating back to the 1990s.
Over two dozen people have come forward to file lawsuits against the rapper, accusing him of using his power and influence in the entertainment industry to commit heinous acts such as drugging, assaulting, and raping individuals.
Shockingly, the latest lawsuits include allegations from two men who were underage at the time of the alleged assaults, both hoping that Mr. Combs could help kickstart their careers in show business.
Despite the mounting accusations both in lawsuits and his federal indictment, the Harlem-born rapper has vehemently denied all allegations.
The criminal case against Mr. Combs encompasses charges of racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking by force, and transportation for purposes of prostitution.
Federal prosecutors have alleged that he created a criminal enterprise to fulfill his sexual desires, protect his reputation, and conceal his questionable conduct.
Moreover, prosecutors have revealed disturbing details, stating that Mr. Combs used drugs, violence, and his status to coerce female victims into extended sex acts referred to as “Freak Offs.”
During raids on his properties in Miami and Los Angeles, officials uncovered firearms, ammunition, and a startling 1,000 bottles of lubricant.
