Prosecutors Unveil New Allegations Against Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs in Expanded Indictment
Federal prosecutors have escalated their case against hip-hop mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs, filing a superseding indictment that reveals new allegations of sex trafficking, physical abuse, and a wide-ranging criminal enterprise spanning two decades. The updated indictment, submitted in Manhattan federal court, claims Combs orchestrated a sophisticated operation—dubbed the "Combs Enterprise"—involving prostitution, arson, bribery, and obstruction of justice from 2004 to 2024.
The newly detailed allegations paint a picture of Combs as a music industry powerhouse who used his influence to lure women into his orbit, only to exploit them through violence and coercion. Prosecutors state that Combs “threw both objects and people, as well as hit, dragged, choked, and shoved others.” One of the most shocking new claims alleges that “on one occasion, Combs dangled a victim over an apartment balcony.” The indictment does not specify further details about that incident.
The superseding indictment not only extends the alleged timeframe of the racketeering conspiracy but also clarifies that at least three female victims were subjected to abuse, threats, and commercial sex acts. Prosecutors assert that Combs used his wealth and reputation to silence victims and obstruct investigations.
Combs, 55, has been in federal custody without bail since his arrest in September. He previously pleaded not guilty to sex trafficking, racketeering conspiracy, and transportation in prostitution charges. His trial is set for May 5.
In response to the new filing, Combs' attorney, Marc Agnifilo, pushed back against the expanded allegations. "The latest indictment contains no new offenses. The prosecution's theory remains flawed," he said. "The government has added the ridiculous theory that two of Mr. Combs' former girlfriends were not girlfriends at all but were prostitutes. Mr. Combs is as committed as ever to fighting these charges and winning at trial."
Defense lawyers have also attacked the case as outdated and biased. In court documents, they argued that prosecutors are unfairly reinterpreting consensual relationships. "The government’s theory perpetuates stereotypes of female victimhood and lack of agency," defense attorneys wrote. They claim the case is built on "sexist and puritanical" views of adult relationships.
Despite Combs' legal team dismissing the allegations as "ridiculous," prosecutors continue to expand their case, adding more details to their accusations. The trial, now set to address an even broader scope of alleged crimes, is expected to be one of the most high-profile celebrity legal battles in recent history.
