The indictment is sealed and the charges were not announced but the person familiar with the prosecution said they believed Mr. Combs was being charged with racketeering and sex trafficking. A statement from Mr. Combs’s legal team said they were disappointed with the decision to prosecute him and noted that he had been cooperative with the investigation and had “voluntarily relocated to New York last week in anticipation of these charges.” https://www.nytimes.com/2024/09/16/arts/music/sean-combs-diddy-indicted.html

He's lucky his heart didn't explode or a major stroke. Read this........
It says he then would use force, threats and coercion to get the women to engage with male sex workers in the “Freak Offs” — “elaborate and produced sex performances” that Combs arranged, directed, masturbated during and often recorded, creating dozens of videos. The events could last for days, and Combs and victims would often receive IV fluids to recover from the exertion and drug use, the indictment said. It said his employees facilitated “Freak Offs” by arranging travel, booking hotel rooms, stocking them with such supplies as drugs and baby oil, scheduling the delivery of IV fluids and cleaning the rooms afterward.
These details blow my mind. We may have found someone who is more hardcore than Rick James was.

Believe me bro, thats nothing new under the sun. Thats how some of today's pimps work, whether they pimp females, males or kids. Its the same story. And somewhere down the road, they also get involved in organ trafficking, which is the sickest thing to do. Human slavery and organ trafficking is like gambling and loan sharking.

Looks like P. Diddy's got himself in a bit of a dither. Lol....(to say the least)
In truth, it appears that he's got himself a real problem here. It looks like the feds really wanna stick it to him. (He's not a liked guy, period)...and I think his days are numbered.
If he gets convicted here (and he probably will,) they'll strip him of his houses, businesses, bank accounts, other assets, etc., etc.....AND he'll end up doing a real big bid on top of it.
Its' over for him! IMO, he's cooked. The feds don't move on you like this unless they've got you lock, stock and barrel. (especially when it comes to a high profile celebrity like this)

(especially when it comes to a high profile celebrity like this) He will receive the same sentence that R Kelly received if found guilty. Remember to be found guilty you have to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that he did it. If the defense can convince the Jury that he is not 100% guilty of the crimes he's being charged with he will walk free. With his money he's gonna have a defense team the likes we have never seen before since OJ Simpson. Unlike R Kelly, P Diddy has plenty of money to hire the best.

I'm not doubting a guilty verdict. Just keeping all possibilities open.

The guy makes Weinstein look poor. His net worth is 1 billion. No doubt. But the fact that he's now being held in jail, pending trial, with "no bail" is very telling. Very telling indeed. (Feds consider him a flight risk. And rightly so.) Once again, IMO, he can stick his money up in his ass, because this time around is gonna be different for him....and as he stews in the joint, sooner or later, that thought's gonna dawn on him too. He's fucked!

HERE IS THE ACTUAL INDICTMENT FILED IN THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NY EARLIER TODAY....
Sean Combs Charged In Manhattan Federal Court With Sex Trafficking And Other Federal Offenses Tuesday, September 17, 2024 For Immediate Release U.S. Attorney's Office, Southern District of New York
Damian Williams, the United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, and William S. Walker, the Acting Special Agent in Charge of the New York Field Office of Homeland Security Investigations (“HSI”), announced that SEAN COMBS, a/k/a “Puff Daddy,” a/k/a “P. Diddy,” a/k/a “PD,” a/k/a “Love,” was arrested last night and charged in a three count Indictment with racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking, and transportation to engage in prostitution. The Indictment unsealed today alleges that between 2008 and the present, COMBS abused, threatened, and coerced women and others, and led a racketeering conspiracy that engaged in sex trafficking, forced labor, kidnapping, arson, bribery, and obstruction of justice, among other crimes. COMBS is expected to be presented in Manhattan federal court this afternoon before Magistrate Judge Robyn F. Tarnofsky.
U.S. Attorney Damian Williams said: “As alleged in the Indictment, for years, Sean Combs used the business empire he controlled to sexually abuse and exploit women, as well as to commit other acts of violence and obstruction of justice. Today, he is charged with racketeering and sex trafficking offenses. If you have been a victim of Combs’ alleged abuse – or if you know anything about his alleged crimes – we urge you to come forward. This investigation is far from over.”
HSI Acting Special Agent in Charge William S. Walker said: “Today, we shatter any false notion of impunity as we uncover the defendant's alleged pattern of manipulation, exploitation, and outright abuse. Make no mistake: we are here today only because of the unwavering strength of victims and witnesses who have already endured unspeakable hardships. I commend them for their courage and urge anyone who believes they are a victim of sex trafficking to contact HSI by email at Sextrafficking_outreach@hsi.dhs.gov, or via our mobile tip-line: 1-877-4-HSITIP.”
According to the Indictment unsealed today:[1]
From at least 2008 through the present, COMBS led a criminal enterprise that existed to facilitate his abuse and exploitation of women, to protect his reputation, and to conceal his conduct. As part of that criminal enterprise, COMBS, along with other members and associates of the enterprise, committed crimes including sex trafficking, forced labor, kidnapping, arson, bribery, and obstruction of justice.
Among other things, COMBS’ sexual abuse of women included causing them to engage in frequent, days-long sexual activity with male commercial sex workers, some of whom were transported over state lines. These events, which COMBS referred to as “Freak Offs,” were elaborate sex performances that COMBS arranged, directed, and often electronically recorded. To ensure participation in Freak Offs, COMBS used violence and intimidation, and leveraged his power over victims—power he obtained through obtaining and distributing narcotics to them, exploiting his financial support to them and threatening to cut off the same, and controlling their careers. COMBS also threatened his victims, including by threatening to expose the embarrassing and sensitive recordings he made of Freak Offs if the women did not comply with his demands.
COMBS’ efforts to control women included repeated physical abuse. COMBS assaulted women by, among other things, striking, punching, dragging, throwing objects at, and kicking them. COMBS similarly assaulted witnesses to his abuse. These assaults often resulted in injuries to the victims, which took days or weeks to heal.
To commit these crimes, COMBS relied on his power as the leader of a multi-faceted business empire. Employees of COMBS' businesses—including high ranking supervisors, security staff, personal assistants, and household staff—acted as COMBS’ intermediaries to, among other things, arrange travel and hotel rooms; stock the hotel rooms for COMBS’ commercial sex activity; contact or locate women and other individuals whom he targeted for abuse; and conceal and cover up the abuse. This criminal concealment included efforts to prevent law enforcement from learning about his abuse.
If you believe you are victim of a crime perpetrated by Sean Combs, please contact HSI at Sextrafficking_outreach@hsi.dhs.gov or via their mobile tip-line at 1-877-4-HSITIP, and reference this case.
* * *
COMBS, 54, of Miami, Florida, is charged with one count of racketeering conspiracy, which carries a maximum sentence of life in prison; one count of sex trafficking by force, fraud, or coercion, which carries a maximum sentence of life in prison and a mandatory minimum sentence of 15 years in prison; and one count of transportation for purposes of prostitution, which carries a maximum sentence of 10 years in prison.
The statutory maximum and mandatory penalties are prescribed by Congress and are provided here for informational purposes only, as any sentencing of the defendant will be determined by the judge.
Mr. Williams praised the outstanding investigative work of HSI and the Southern District of New York Special Agents, Digital Forensic Unit, and the Complex Analytical and Social Media Enhancement Team at the New York/New Jersey High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area.
This case is being handled by the Office’s Civil Rights Unit in the Criminal Division. Assistant U.S. Attorneys Meredith Foster, Emily A. Johnson, Christy Slavik, Madison Reddick Smyser and Mitzi Steiner.
The charges contained in the Indictment are merely accusations. The defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty.
[1] As the introductory phrase signifies, the entirety of the text of the Indictment, and the description of the Indictment set forth herein, constitutes only allegations, and every fact described therein should be treated as an allegation.
