Sean “Diddy” Kammen was charged with sex trafficking and extortion on Tuesday, September 17, the day after his arrest in New York.

A 14-page indictment, made public Tuesday, details a barrage of allegations against the rapper. Diddy “abused, threatened and coerced women and others around him,” the complaint says. Some of the alleged incidents, which the indictment alleges were carried out to “gratify his sexual desires, protect his reputation and conceal his conduct,” date back to 2009.

Diddy “engaged in a persistent and pervasive pattern of abuse toward women and other individuals,” the lawsuit continues. “This abuse was at times verbal, emotional, physical, and sexual.”

The document also noted that he allegedly “manipulated women” into “participating in highly orchestrated performances,” which are described elsewhere in the indictment.

Sean “Diddy” Combs has had his fair share of ups and downs in both his career and personal life. Diddy began his career in the 1990s as an intern at Uptown Records after dropping out of Howard University. He worked his way up to talent director at the label, and went on to help develop (…)

Damian WilliamsU.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York confirmed Diddy’s arrest via social media on Monday. The music mogul’s lawyer, Marc Agnifiloalso spoke out about the arrest in a statement to Us.

“We are disappointed in the decision to prosecute the U.S. Attorney’s Office for what we believe to be an unjust prosecution of Mr. Combs,” Agnifilo said. “Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs is a music icon, self-made entrepreneur, loving family man and proven philanthropist who has spent the past 30 years building an empire, adoring his children and working to improve the black community.”

He concluded: “He is an imperfect person, but he is not a criminal. To his credit, Mr. Combs has been nothing but cooperative with this investigation and voluntarily relocated to New York last week in anticipation of these charges. Please reserve judgment until you have all the facts. These are the actions of an innocent man with nothing to hide and he looks forward to clearing his name in court.”

Keep scrolling for a rundown of the allegations against Diddy:

1. The ‘Freak Offs’

Diddy would orchestrate what were called “Freak Offs,” the indictment alleges. These were “elaborate and produced sex performances,” often taking place in hotel rooms, and were arranged and directed by Diddy, who allegedly “masturbated during, and often electronically recorded, them.”

The music mogul and his business associates would allegedly “lure” “female victims” into his inner circle, “often under the pretense of a romantic relationship.” He would then use “force, threats of force, and coercion to induce victims to engage in prolonged sexual acts with male commercial sex workers.”

During these “Freak Offs,” Diddy allegedly “provided a variety of controlled substances to victims” to keep them “compliant and obedient” during sexual acts. Both Diddy and the alleged victims “were given IV fluids to recover from the physical exertion and drug use” following the acts.

2. What was found during the Homeland Security raid?

Evidence of the “Freak Offs” was reportedly found at Diddy’s Miami and Beverly Hills homes, which were raided last March in connection with a federal sex trafficking investigation.

“Law enforcement seized multiple ‘Freak Off’ supplies, including narcotics and over 1,000 bottles of baby oil and lubricant,” the complaint said. Elsewhere in the documents, it was revealed that Homeland Security “seized firearms and ammunition, including three AR-15s with defaced serial numbers, as well as a drum magazine.”

3. Arson

Diddy was accused of multiple counts of “arson” in the indictment. While no further details were given about the alleged crime, the document alleged that there were “multiple acts” of arson, all of which are punishable under the California Penal Code.

Some companies appear to be distancing themselves from Sean “Diddy” Combs as the rapper continues to face allegations of sexual assault. In recent months, multiple women have come forward to share allegations of misconduct by the music mogul. One person to file a lawsuit was his ex-girlfriend Cassie. (The exes had an on-again, off-again relationship beginning in 2007 (…)

4. The Cassie Video

In May, a video emerged of Diddy attacking his ex-girlfriend Cashew in a hotel in 2016 was made public. The music mogul allegedly attempted to bribe the staff member to ensure silence after the incident when a hotel employee intervened, the complaint said.

Cassie — who dated Diddy on and off from 2007 to 2018 — accused him of abuse in a November 2023 lawsuit that was settled a day later. Diddy has denied the allegations.

5. Combs Enterprise employees were allegedly involved

Although Diddy was most often named in the indictment, his company, Combs Enterprise, was also implicated in the alleged crimes.

“Members and associates of the Combs Enterprise engaged in, and attempted to engage in, among other things, sex trafficking, forced labor, interstate transportation for the purpose of prostitution, coercion and enticement to engage in prostitution, drug offenses, kidnapping, arson, bribery, and obstruction of justice,” the indictment said. The “enterprise” referred to the organization’s “leadership, members, and associates.”
