Sean Combs, known as Diddy, was arrested on Monday, according to a person with knowledge of the investigation.

Diddy’s attorney, Marc Agnifilo, issued a statement saying, “We are disappointed with the decision to pursue what we believe is an unjust prosecution of Mr. Combs by the U.S. Attorney’s Office.”

    Here we fucking go. We’re about to find out how far down that rabbit hole goes.

    The right wingers get almost everything wrong, but I 100% believe that the 1% in America are into all kinds of fucked up shit. The rule of law has failed, and their money and power has insulated them from consequences.

        It’s known he used to work for them, so not really compelling conspiracy material. If you believe what Acosta said about epstein though, that’s some gas.

      I mean, it’s their first accusation because they are there when it happens. They’re trying to get in front of the story and make noise so when the pictures of Epstein and Trump together get released, they can just hand wave it as Trump investigating Epstein even know there’s never been anything like that released.

    What is it with all these celebrities and powerful people committing sexual assault? It’s not that hard to find a consensual partner as a random ordinary guy, so how the fuck can you not find one as a rich and famous celebrity?

    The fact that the Pro-Active acne commercial mascot has been the hip hop boogie man for decades is wild. This guy has assaulted and raped women and men, blew up kid cudis car to try and kill him, and is getting called out by Eminem for putting the hit out on Tupac. What the actual fuck.

    Sean Combs, known as Diddy

    Also known as P. Diddy, Puffy, Puff Daddy…

    Probably no surprise he’s been arrested with all the aliases.

    This month, Combs listed his home in Los Angeles that was raided in March for $61.5 million.

    How ostentatious does a “home” have to be to cost that much? I mean, I can sort of imagine a ten million dollar home (from movies and television). I can’t imagine this.

    Having seen that hotel physical abuse footage, I’m glad they finally arrested him. Hope they nail him at trial. Sounds like there’s a lot for which to get him.

      Real state is not just about the square area, or even the construction on top, but mostly about location. The cost is not about how big or luxurious of a mansion it is, but because it means living surrounded by other millionaires. If you scout the area, you notice it is one of the biggest houses around that place and the price, while outrageous even by the area standards, is not that far up next one, and about half of the most expensive one.

    Correct me if I am wrong, I remember he was associated with Chris Brown, helping spotlight them.

    Anyone associated with Chris Brown is not in my book, a good person.

    Seeing as how these rappers are essentially a brand/corporation into themselves? Couldn’t you take down someone like Diddy with a RICO case?
