Can Donald J. Trump, Rupert Murdoch, Elon Musk, Richard Branson, Woody Allen and Clive Davis join this party?
Winners and losers of 2024.
He is indicted and the charges will be revealed by Damian Williams, the U.S. Attorney for SDNY.
Combs, 54 was arrested on Monday night. Combs was at the Park Hyatt hotel on West 57th Street, a representative said. He was caught off-guard by the apprehension, according to a person familiar with the situation, who added he had been living at the hotel for several weeks.
“We expect to move to unseal the indictment in the morning and will have more to say at that time,” Williams said.
The empire collapsed when it was revealed that Combs had numerous sexual assault lawsuits from women and men. The notable one was Casandra Ventura, known as Cassie who filed a lawsuit against him. They dated for almost ten years and she claimed that he was always intoxicated, abusive, pimping her to women and men, making her do cocaine and ecstasy, holding threats of death if she ever left him or called the law.

Combs denied the allegations but eventually settled out with her.
By this time, all the remaining acts Machine Gun Kelly, Jonelle Monae and French Montana have exited the label. They also are suing Combs for their royalties and records.
Bad Boy Entertainment is deemed inactive.
Robert Sylvester Kelly, a former collaborator with Combs saw his empire collapse when the Lifetime documentary Surviving R. Kelly came out. On top of that, the allegations, the sham marriage to Aayliah, the threats of violence against the women and male accuser. The disgraced entertainer got 30 years.
Kelly was convicted for sex trafficking, child porn, falsifying documents in the marriage to Aaliyah and extortion.
Combs is probably facing this once the indictments are unsealed.
He will likely have to shelve out a hefty amount, lose his firearms, lose his passport, be fitted with a GPS tracker, have no contact with witnesses, victims or those in the jury and of course, he will forfeit the Bad Boy label to creditors.
Bet you Combs will snitch on Aaron Hall, Teddy Riley, Shawn "Jay-Z" Carter, Clifford "T.I." Harris, DJ Akademics, Deric "D. Dot, the Mad Rapper" Angelettie, Stevie J and Raymond "Benzino" Scott.
Can't wait until Daune "Kaffe D" Davis reveal the reasons to why Tupac Shakur was killed.
Israel has handlers and they always got dirt on people.
Combs had his lawyers run a prepared statement.

| G. Dep did Combs favors. He spent nearly 20 years in the iron college for that. |
"Combs is a music icon thief, a self-made entrepreneur gangster, loving family man to run the game, and proven philanthropist extortionist who has spent the last 30 years building an empire a criminal racket, adoring grooming his children, and manipulating to the Black community into committing acts of violence and sexual exploitation."
The statement's only truth:
“He is an imperfect person but he is not a criminal.”
“These are the acts of an innocent man with nothing to hide, and he looks forward to clearing his name in court,” it added.
The suspect is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
The evidence must be really good for an indictment and I am certain that Williams has a strong case.
In March, federal investigators searched Combs’ homes in Miami and Los Angeles.
Investigators interviewed several people in relation to allegations of sex trafficking, sexual assault and the solicitation and distribution of illegal narcotics and firearms, a source familiar with the investigation told NBC News in March.
The warrant to search Combs’ properties came from the Southern District of New York, NBC News has reported.
Combs, who has also gone by such names as Puffy, Puff Daddy and Love, founded Bad Boy in the early 1990s. He is regarded as a trailblazer of hip-hop, fashion and media, having created the Sean John clothing line and launched the Revolt TV channel, which he sold his stake in over the summer.

| The last ride. |
Rodney “Lil Rod” Jones, a producer on Combs’ most recent album, alleged in a lawsuit in February that Combs made unwanted sexual contact, forced him to hire prostitutes and pressured him to participate in sex acts with them. Jones said he lived and traveled with Combs from September 2022 to November 2023, during which time he recorded hours of video and audio of Combs, his staff and others “engaging in serious illegal activity.”
His attorneys, Rodney S. Diggs and Tyrone Blackburn, who are also representing other Combs accusers, said Combs’ “long awaited arrest” was “an important step towards justice for all of Mr. Combs’ victims.”
“We leave the criminal aspect of this case in the hands of the people and justice system,” they said Monday night. “As for the civil cases, we await our time for the facts to reveal themselves and seek the justice our clients deserve. We also anticipate more victims coming forward. We knew this was coming. The evidence is very clear and it was only a matter of time.”
After the hotel video of Combs assaulting Ventura was published, Howard University cut ties with him. In June, the school rescinded an honorary degree it awarded him and disbanded a scholarship program in his name. The same month, Combs honored a request from New York Mayor Eric Adams and returned his key to the city.
This month, Combs listed his home in Los Angeles that was raided in March for $61.5 million.
