The fallout from the arrest of Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs has been virtually non-stop since the disgraced rapper and producer was arrested by federal authorities in mid-September.
The latest development in the alleged crimes of Diddy comes via Fox News, who have obtained unearthed video from one of Diddy’s infamous “white parties” in which he addresses the crowd and tells them to “put the kids away.”
Diddy was arrested by Homeland Security agents in New York City on charges of sex trafficking, racketeering, and transportation to engage in prostitution on September 16.
“We fed ya’ll, gave ya’ll some drinks. Now it’s time to enjoy life.This is a celebration of life. This is the legendary white party,” Diddy says in the video, via Fox News.
“And to all the kids, the kids have an hour left. Get extra comfortable kids, because after that, ya’ll got to go. It’s a wrap for ya’ll. Because this thing turns into something that when ya’ll get older, ya’ll are going to want to come to. Let’s start to get our groove on and in an hour we’ll put the kids away.”
Following his arrest, the 54-year-old was arraigned and denied bail by a judge, meaning he’ll await his trial at Brooklyn’s notorious Metropolitan Detention Center, reportedly one of the most brutal federal prisons in the country.
Former inmates have described the jail, which is also housing FTX fraud Sam Bankman-Fried, as “pure hell.”
According to federal authorities, Diddy has been conducting “decades of mental, emotional, physical and sexual abuse.”
“To do so, Combs relied on the employees, resources, and influence of the multifaceted business empire that he led and controlled, creating a criminal enterprise whose members and associates engaged in and attempted to engage in, among other crimes, sex trafficking, forced labor, kidnapping, arson, bribery, and obstruction of justice,” authorities said of Diddy following his arrest.
Diddy has pled not guilty to the charges of sex trafficking, racketeering, and transportation to engage in prostitution.
If found guilty, he faces a minimum of 15 years and a maximum of life in prison. Further reports indicate over 100 additional sexual assault lawsuits are set to be filed against Diddy in the coming weeks, too.
