As allegations of sex trafficking and abuse begin hitting Sean Combs in late 2023, they seem at odds with the image Diddy has carefully curated for decades. However, reexamining his early rise to iconic music mogul reveals early signs of trouble.
Reaching beyond music, Diddy’s business empire seems untouchable. His alleged mistreatment of women and serial arrests avoid public scrutiny. Then, in 2001, Combs faces his most perilous test when he stands trial on felony charges after a shooting.
Combs changes his name and rises to new heights on Broadway and reality TV, soon reaching billionaire status. However, behind his empire, people come forward with allegations of mistreatment: body shaming, physical abuse, sexual assault and brutal rape.
Publicly, Combs and Cassie become a power couple, but witnesses reveal startling allegations of abuse by Combs toward Cassie kept quiet for years. Then, a woman comes forward with dark, new allegations of mistreatment from 2021. What will his legacy be?
Phil Pines thought he had found success when he landed a job in 2019 as an executive assistant for Sean Combs. Now Pines is “haunted” by his two years serving his former role model. He alleges he was forced to provide drugs and organize Wild King Nights.
