Prosecutors have updated Sean “Diddy” Combs’ federal indictment to include accounts from two additional alleged victims, Us Weekly can confirm.
On Thursday, January 30, prosecutors filed an expanded indictment against the music mogul, 55, in which two additional women alleged that they were “coerced into commercial sex acts and of dangling a woman over an apartment balcony.”
These new charges are part of the indictment against Diddy that was returned by a grand jury on Thursday, according to documents filed in Federal District Court in Manhattan.
Diddy’s attorney, Marc Agnifilo, told Us in a statement that the “latest indictment contains no new offenses.”
Sean “Diddy” Combs was indicted on charges of sex trafficking and racketeering on Tuesday, September 17, following his arrest one day prior. The indictment, unsealed on Tuesday, accuses the music mogul, 54, of abusing, threatening and coercing women for years “to fulfill his sexual desires, protect his reputation and conceal his conduct.” Some of the […]
“The prosecution’s theory remains flawed,” the lawyer alleged. “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.”
Diddy was arrested in September 2024 and indicted on charges of sex trafficking, racketeering, conspiracy and transportation to engage in prostitution. He is also facing more than 30 civil lawsuits from alleged victims of sexual assault and misconduct. Diddy has maintained his innocence while behind bars.
The new indictment, obtained by Us, does not add any additional charges to Diddy’s case, but it does add accounts from two alleged victims that could strengthen the prosecutors claims regarding the accusations of racketeering and sex trafficking.
Sean “Diddy” Combs pleaded not guilty to several charges on Tuesday, September 17, one day after his New York arrest. Page Six reported on Tuesday that he entered a not guilty plea for charges of racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion and transportation to engage in prostitution. “We are not done,” U.S. […]
Instead of the initial “Victim-1” account — which closely resembles Cassandra “Cassie” Ventura’s previous lawsuit against Diddy — listed in the indictment there are now “Victim-2” and “Victim-3” accounts in the filing. (Cassie, 38, settled a lawsuit against her ex-boyfriend outside of court in fall 2023 after she accused him of sexual assault and battery. Diddy denied the allegations.)
Prosecutors accused Diddy in Thursday’s indictment of providing his alleged victims “with, among other things, monetary payments, career opportunities, and payment of rent and housing expenses” to keep them in line.
Diddy allegedly “used force, threats of force, and coercion, to cause victims, including but not limited to three female victims” to engage in commercial sex acts,” the filing claimed.
Sean “Diddy” Combs has been accused of sexual assault by three more alleged victims, Us Weekly can confirm. Per the documents obtained on Thursday, December 12, the unnamed victims alleged that Diddy, 55, drugged and sexually assaulted them. The earliest claim in the docs was in 2019. Two of the accusers alleged that they went […]
Diddy’s lawyers, meanwhile, have claimed that the sexual encounters outlined in the court documents were consensual.
The indictment also extended the period of the alleged racketeering conspiracy back to 2004 instead of 2008.
Per the filing, Diddy’s employees and associates allegedly helped conceal violence and abuse and engage in sex trafficking, arson and multiple acts of kidnapping. The indictment lists a new allegation of kidnapping in New York where prosecutors claim that Diddy carried and displayed a firearm and a kidnapping in California.
The expanded indictment added allegations of distribution or the intent to distribute methamphetamine and psilocin, a hallucinogen. Prosecutors initially accused Diddy of several drug offenses, including distribution or intent to distribute cocaine, oxycodone and ketamine.
Diddy’s trial is set to begin in May.
