“Mogul” Diddy is in custody and has not been released on bail. However, even behind bars, Diddy remains a powerful force in the entertainment industry, maintaining enormous influence. According to People, his fame has instilled fear in many in the industry, reflecting Diddy’s lasting impact.
“Diddy is very powerful. Everyone is afraid to confront him. Even though he is behind bars, he is still very influential. We have all known that for a long time. Diddy is extremely intelligent, he knows a lot of people and he has helped a lot of people. Because of that, a lot of people owe him favors and he knows it well,” a source told People.
Many netizens believe that this could be the reason why numerous stars allegedly involved are keeping absolutely silent. Among them, Justin Bieber, Usher, the Beyoncé-Jay-Z couple are mentioned… According to American media, many powerful figures, including artists, executives and managers in the music industry, are currently unable to sleep peacefully for fear of being named in the Diddy case. Some stars have contacted the victims to “resolve the issue privately”. They are trying to pay and reach an agreement so as not to be mentioned in the trial against Diddy.

Diddy was arrested in New York City on September 16. He is charged with several serious crimes, including sexual abuse, prostitution, extortion, etc., but did not plead guilty at a hearing on September 17. Earlier, Diddy’s ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura accused him and filed a lawsuit against the rapper for “using money and power to cover up evidence of physical and psychological abuse.”
A week after Diddy’s arrest, the U.S. Homeland Security Investigations released a dossier revealing the “sexual predator’s” crimes, sending shockwaves around the world. According to the dossier, Diddy and members of the Combs Enterprise, including high-ranking supervisors, security personnel, housekeepers and personal assistants, are accused of organizing several so-called Freak Off parties, where drugs and orgies were consumed.
At these parties, the rapper was accused of beating, throwing objects at, and physically and mentally abusing victims, forcing them to engage in aberrant behavior at his whim. The attacks were described as “causing injuries that took days or weeks to heal.” Additionally, Diddy controlled the victims in various ways, including physical violence, promises of job opportunities, threats to cut off financial support, and other coercive measures, such as monitoring their homes and medical records, and supplying them with addictive substances.
