New accusations and a new scandal engulf rapper and record producer Sean “P. Diddy” Combs, who became famous in the past under the pseudonym of Puff Daddy: he is at the center of a federal investigation for sexual trafficking, sexual violence, distribution of narcotics, and illegal firearms. Agents from Homeland Security Investigations have searched his properties in Los Angeles and Miami. Legal documents also mention the name of Prince Harry, who is not involved in the investigation and is not under accusation, but is mentioned in a $30 million lawsuit according to which Combs would be a sexual harasser of both men and women.
The Complaint
The complaint was filed by record producer Rodney “Lil Rod” Jones, who claims that the rapper was able to attract several victims - who would also have been drugged - thanks to the influential friendships he boasts. Essentially, the knowledge of stars and famous and high-ranking individuals, among them the Duke of Sussex, would have given the singer a sort of credibility, capable of attracting many guests to his parties which often turned into sexual traps. This is not the first lawsuit of this type for Diddy: already three women have accused him of sexual violence. The last was his ex-girlfriend, the singer Cassie, with whom the rapper reached a financial settlement: she accused him of rape, sexual trafficking, and physical abuse.
Lil Rod, who produced nine songs on Diddy’s “The Love Album: Off the Grid” of 2023, claims to have been subjected to real physical and psychological abuses. He claims to have been forced to recruit prostitutes and to have sex with them in front of the rapper and also that Diddy molested and sexually assaulted him. He says he has seen the singer drug the drinks of underage girls and to possess hundreds of videos that document Combs’ “serious illegal activity”.
The rapper recruited Jones in August 2022. “Mr. Jones agreed, and since then his life has been negatively impacted - the victim's lawyers claim in the complaint - for more than a year he has endured constant unwanted and unauthorized groping”, in Combs' homes in Florida, Los Angeles, and New York, and also on a chartered yacht in the Virgin Islands. He would also have been sexually assaulted by a cousin of Combs’ girlfriend and forced to watch obscene videos. According to the complaint, Jones had to work in Combs' bathroom where the star took a shower behind a glass screen. The producer also claims that the rapper often boasted of having shot people and threatened to harm him if he did not meet his demands. Furthermore: “Mr. Combs has constantly made it clear that he has immense power in the music industry and law enforcement”.
