Listen now
Description
The epsidoe chronicles the stunning fall from grace of Sean "Diddy" Combs, one of hip-hop's most influential and successful moguls. It details the explosive allegations of physical abuse, sexual assault, forced drugging, and even sex trafficking that have emerged against Combs from multiple women over several decades. The catalyst appears to be the November 2022 lawsuit filed by Cassie Ventura, Combs' ex-girlfriend and protégé, accusing him of years of vicious beatings, rape, and forcing her into sexual acts with others. Her claims were made credible by the leaking of a 2016 surveillance video showing a man resembling Combs brutally assaulting Ventura in a hotel hallway. In the wake of Ventura's suit, several more lawsuits followed from other alleged victims. Combs initially vehemently denied all accusations, but his denials rang hollow after the leaked footage. The video and lawsuits have sparked a federal sex trafficking investigation, with agents raiding Combs' homes. The episode chronicles Combs' evolving statements, from denials to a belated apology not asking for forgiveness. It examines the potential devastating impacts on his career, businesses, and legacy, with legal experts deeming him virtually "done" as prospective jurors could be swayed by the "smoking gun" video evidence of Combs' alleged propensity for violence against women.
