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.”
....I also wonder how many rich cocks he personally sucked during his prime years and even today?! lol
These guys are obviously working for somebody, meaning theres always someone above them and Diddy is at the bottom and he deserves everything thats coming to him. Fuck him.

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)

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.

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.
If Diddy is found Guilty, he will come out and identify as a woman, and request to serve out his sentence at a Woman's Prison. There, he could get the guards to smuggle in small bottles of baby oil for his Prison Freak Offs....
j/k
He would be in a male prison, identifying as a woman, where the male guards would sneak in baby oil for the Prison Freak Offs...
He had no involvement in Biggie's murder, but I’m sure they’d love to indict him for Tupac's. They have at least two witnesses who claim to have personally heard him solicit the murders of Tupac and Suge. Other witnesses can also tie him to a suspicious financial transaction with Eric Von Zip Martin, the man who is alleged to have supplied the gun at the scene. Keefe D even mentioned that Foxy Brown was present, but would she testify? Unfortunately, I doubt it. We do know, however, that she was in Las Vegas at the time of the shooting and in Von Zip’s company, a fact that wasn’t public knowledge. Either Keefe D is telling the truth, or he’s got some sort of psychic ability.

The family of Tupac Shakur has hired a high-profile attorney, known for representing Jay-Z, Alec Baldwin, New York City Mayor Eric Adams and more, to look into a possible connection between his murder and Sean "Diddy" Combs.
Shakur's family hired Alex Spiro, a partner at Quinn Emanuel Urquhart & Sullivan, to investigate Combs and determine if he is linked to Shakur's 1996 death.
Shakur was 25 years old when he was fatally shot inside a car stopped at a red light in Las Vegas. The rapper was known for hits such as "California Love" and "Changes." The crime remained unsolved until Duane "Keffe D" Davis was arrested last year for murder. Davis allegedly admitted that he was involved in the shooting in a book. He claimed he was in the car where the shots originated from and he provided the weapon, but his nephew fired the fatal shots.
Davis has accused Combs of being involved in the planning of the murder. Davis allegedly told Las Vegas officials in 2009 that Combs paid for the attack.
"[Davis] has asserted publicly that he only told on himself and wasn't trying to provide evidence against anyone else in his conversations with police. However, this statement belies this claim, as he suggested that Sean Combs paid Eric Von Martin a million dollars for the killings as well as offered to set up a surreptitious phone call with Terrence Brown, the driver, who, at the time, was still alive," prosecutors stated in a July court filing.
Combs has denied any involvement.
Newsweek reached out to the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department for comment.
Combs was indicted on multiple unrelated federal charges last month, including sex trafficking and racketeering. He has pleaded not guilty to the charges.
Suge Knight, who was driving the car Shakur was in when the shooting happened, shared a message for Combs on his podcast Collect Call with Suge Knight.
"I'll tell you what, Puffy, your life is in danger [because] you know the secrets of who's involved in that little secret room you guys are participating in. You know they [are going to] get you if they can...I turned myself in. Sometimes you [got to] face the music, that's most of the time," Knight said.
Who is Alex Spiro? Spiro started his legal career in 2008 as a prosecutor with the New York County District Attorney's Office. During his time there, he helped to convict Rodney Alcala, also known as the "Dating Game Killer", for two murders committed in the 1970s.
He then became a trial attorney in 2013.
In 2016, he was brought on as one of the lawyers representing former NFL player Aaron Hernandez in a double homicide trial and the appeal of a 2015 murder conviction.
Hernandez, a former tight end for the New England Patriots, had been found guilty of murdering Odin Lloyd, who was dating the sister of Hernandez's fiancée. He was also indicted for the 2012 double homicide of Daniel de Abreu and Safiro Furtado but was later acquitted.
Spiro collaborated with Jay-Z, whose real name is Shawn Corey Carter, on several legal matters, including a lawsuit over a cologne deal where Carter was awarded $4.5 million in 2021.
Spiro was Baldwin's lawyer for a manslaughter case related to the 2021 death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins. Hutchins was fatally shot on the set of the movie Rust after Baldwin fired a prop gun. Spiro submitted a motion to dismiss the charge, which was granted by the judge.
He is currently representing Adams on charges of conspiracy to commit wire fraud, federal program bribery, and to receive campaign contributions by foreign nationals; wire fraud; solicitation of a contribution by a foreign national; and bribery.
The problem here is that he supposedly drugged these people before having sex with them along with them being under age. If he was the only one under the influence his lawyers could possibly get some sympathy from the jury by claiming he was controlled by an evil substance and that wasn't truly who he was.
That theory goes out the window now.

Meanwhile, stories about the rapper continue to surface. On Tuesday, it emerged that a professional athlete stopped Diddy from sexually assaulting a wealthy businessman at a Ciroc vodka party. The alleged incident dates back to 2022. Legal documents, which The Post was able to view, show that Combs invited the man, whose name has not been released, to his office during the event. “He kept coming closer. Suddenly, he roughly squeezed the victim’s genitals.”
The alleged victim says he was “in shock” after the incident. “He didn’t know how to respond to Combs’ unwanted advances,” he continues. Fortunately, it didn’t go any further. Before Diddy could do anything, a famous athlete suddenly entered the office. It is not known who exactly this was.

P. Diddy will spend Thanksgiving in jail. The judge presiding over his sex trafficking case ruled the music mogul will remain in jail, despite several efforts by his defense team to get him out of the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn. Law&Crime’s Jesse Weber has the breaking developments.
Serious allegations Jay-Z accused of raping 13-year-old girl in Diddy case By RTL News ·Yesterday· Amended: 18 hours ago
American rapper and entrepreneur Jay-Z (55) has been accused in a civil lawsuit of raping a 13-year-old girl. He allegedly did this 24 years ago, in 2000, together with Sean 'Diddy' Combs (55), reports the American 'NBC News'.
The anonymous accuser said the rape occurred after she was taken to an MTV Video Music Awards afterparty. The lawsuit alleging rape was originally filed against Diddy last October. However, the lawsuit was refiled yesterday to include Shawn Carter, Jay-Z's real name.
Jay-Z calls the allegations "horrific in nature." "Anyone who commits a crime like this against a minor should be locked up, don't you think?" the rapper said in a statement to NBC News . The accusation against Jay-Z comes amid a major case involving sexual misconduct against American rapper Sean 'Diddy' Combs. Dozens of people have accused him of, among other things, sexual assault and rape. He is currently in custody awaiting his trial, which starts on May 5. He has tried to be released on bail several times, but his request has been denied three times.
This is the first lawsuit to name another known suspect.

If anyone had a front row seat, it was Kirk Burrowes. What the fuck have I been telling you people for all these years? BOOM!
Bad Boy Co-Founder Co-Signs Diddy’s Alleged Involvement In Tupac Shakur’s Murder
Kirk Burrowes, the co-founder and former president of Bad Boy Entertainment, is making explosive claims about Sean “Diddy” Combs‘ alleged involvement in the death of Tupac Shakur in a new lawsuit.
Burrowes accuses the disgraced mogul of sexual abuse, coercion, violence, intimidation, career sabotage and financial extortion spanning more than a decade.
The filing also includes allegations about Diddy’s connection to the West Coast rap icon’s death.
The lawsuit details Diddy’s alleged “unchecked jealousy” of Tupac Shakur’s rapid rise in the music industry, describing how the embattled mogul became increasingly insecure about Shakur’s influence, which posed a threat to his own dominance in the Hip-Hop world. According to Burrowes, Diddy engaged in smear campaigns against Shakur, fueling the rivalry to undermine the West Coast rapper’s credibility and career.
Burrowes also recounts several instances of Diddy expressing frustration over Shakur’s success and his friendship with The Notorious B.I.G. These tensions are said to have pushed Diddy into taking “reckless” actions that contributed to the “dangerous environment” within the industry, eventually escalating to the violence that marked the infamous rivalry.
The lawsuit further claims that prior to Shakur’s fatal shooting on September 7, 1996, Diddy had been in contact with a West Coast record executive and various street gang factions, discussing the ongoing East Coast-West Coast conflict.
Burrowes alleges that a few days before the shooting, Diddy rented vehicles and instructed several men from Harlem to drive to Las Vegas, an unusual move given that flying would have been more practical. These men were reportedly not connected to the company, raising questions about the true purpose of their trip.
Additionally, the lawsuit alleges that Diddy was involved in a deal with Duane “Keefe D” Davis, who is currently awaiting trial on charges of orchestrating Tupac Shakur’s murder.
“Upon information and belief, Keefe D was expecting a payment of $1 million, which had not been received,” the filing reads. “Reports suggest that this sum was promised as compensation for facilitating actions that contributed to the assassination of Tupac Shakur.”
Burrowes contends that tension arose between the two after the payment “failed to materialize.”
The complaint alleges that Diddy ultimately paid a courier to deliver the money to Keefe D, but the transaction failed, further intensifying the dispute.
Burrowes argues that Diddy’s involvement in the events surrounding Shakur’s murder may have been more than coincidental and questions the motivations behind his actions in the lead-up to the tragic shooting.
Keefe D was arrested and indicted in 2023 in connection with Tupac Shakur’s death. He is the sole individual charged in the murder.
In past interviews and his memoir, Keefe D admitted to being in the Cadillac involved in the shooting and claimed he passed the gun to the backseat, where his nephew, Orlando Anderson, allegedly fired the fatal shots.
In 2023, audio surfaced of Keefe D revealing his struggles to get paid for Shakur’s murder after Diddy allegedly offered $1 million for the hit.
Keefe D allegedly told Harlem gangster Eric “Von Zip” Martin to collect the money from Diddy days after the murder, but Martin allegedly avoided him.
Years later, an associate claimed Martin had kept the payment for himself, which Keefe D said led to his confession. Keefe D also admitted to a failed attempt to confront Diddy at his Hollywood Walk of Fame ceremony in 2008.
is sex trafficking the same as having sex in traffic? I hope not because sitting in traffic is boring and having a hooker in the car is great way to make the time go by. Just my two cents.
