Sean "Diddy" Combs is the 54 year old music mogul and entrepreneur, known for his record label Bad Boy Records which launched the careers of artists like The Notorious B.I.G., Mase, and Faith Evans, in addition to his own musical career. Beyond music, Diddy has built a business empire that spans multiple industries, including fashion, television, spirits, and media. He's known for his influence on the hip-hop industry and is considered one of the wealthiest figures in the entertainment world. In November 2023, his former partner, singer Cassie Ventura, filed a civil lawsuit accusing Diddy of rape, sex trafficking, and physical abuse over a ten-year period. The case was settled the following day, with details remaining confidential. Subsequently, multiple individuals have come forward with similar allegations, including claims of drugging, sexual assault, coercion into non-consensual sexual activities, and the creation of non-consensual pornography.
In September 2024, Diddy was arrested and indicted on federal charges of racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking, and transportation to engage in prostitution. The indictment alleges that Diddy utilized his business operations to facilitate these criminal activities, including forced labor, kidnapping, arson, bribery, and drug distribution. He has pleaded not guilty to all charges and remains in custody without bail. We have been following the case and releasing updates as they come, so please go back and listen to our previous Diddy episodes. Today, we are going to summarize the charges against Diddy up to this point, and discuss any other updates.
