Diddy was arrested Monday in Manhattan.
Sean "Diddy" Combs of the new network Revolt TV addresses reporters at the Television Critics Association summer press tour at the Beverly Hilton Hotel on Friday July 26, 2013, in Beverly Hills, Calif. The indictment claims the music mogul hit and abused women for more than a decade and presided over a empire of sexual crimes.
The indictment details allegations dating to 2008 that he abused, threatened and coerced women for years “to fulfill his sexual desires, protect his reputation, and conceal his conduct.” He is accused of inducing female victims and male sex workers into drugged-up, sometimes dayslong sexual performances dubbed “Freak Offs” in the indictment., roughly six months after federal authorities conducting a sex trafficking investigation raided his homes in Los Angeles and Miami.
Combs and his associates wielded his “power and prestige” to “intimidate, threaten, and lure” women into his orbit, “often under the pretense of a romantic relationship,” the indictment says. It says he then would use force, threats and coercion to get the women to engage in with male sex workers in the “Freak Offs” — “elaborate and produced sex performances” that Combs arranged, directed, masturbated during and often recorded.
