WATCH THE VIDEO HERE The legal troubles for Sean “Diddy” Combs just keep piling up. A new indictment unsealed Thursday brings even more damning allegations against the hip-hop mogul, claiming that he forced employees to work extreme hours under the threat of physical and reputational harm—and in at least one case, allegedly coerced an employee into engaging in sexual acts with him. The feds hit him with new allegations that arise under the thirtieth amendment to the Constitution – the one that barred slavery in the United States, Media Take Out confirmed. This latest development follows Combs’ arrest last year on federal charges, including racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking, and the transportation of prostitutes across state lines for events prosecutors described as “freak offs.” While the second superseding indictment does not add new charges, it expands on previous accusations and presents even more disturbing details about Combs’ alleged behavior. According to the indictment: The new details paint an even darker picture of Combs’ alleged abuses, reinforcing previous claims that he ran an environment where power, fear, and coercion dictated interactions with employees and associates. Combs is scheduled to be arraigned on the new indictment next week. However, prosecutors have stated that this will not affect his scheduled May 5 trial on the previous charges. He has consistently denied all allegations, with his legal team insisting that he never sexually assaulted or trafficked anyone. “Mr. Combs has full confidence in the facts and the integrity of the judicial process. In court, the truth will prevail: that Mr. Combs never sexually assaulted or trafficked anyone—man or woman, adult or minor,” his attorneys previously stated. Despite his defense, the evidence against him appears to be mounting, and if convicted, he could face severe federal penalties. Once hailed as a hip-hop mogul, business icon, and industry leader, Combs’ legal troubles are now overshadowing his legacy. From allegations of sexual misconduct to workplace abuse and now coercion and forced labor, his name is becoming increasingly synonymous with scandal. With the trial date approaching, all eyes will be on whether the government’s case can prove these serious allegations in court. If convicted, this could mark the final chapter in Combs’ decades-long empire. For now, Combs remains in custody at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, awaiting what may be the biggest trial of his life. The New Allegations
