A P. Diddy Question

Can somebody explain why P Diddy was arrested? I don’t need links. I read the links. And I still have no idea what the crimes were. Is it hiring prostitutes for others? Or what? “Sex trafficking” stands for pimping because pimping is now a bad word, or something, and needs a synonym. So did he hire the prostitutes? Or the opposite? Did he rent them or rent them out?

Journalism has become complete crap because articles go on and on but nothing is ever explained. I read that he “manipulated, lured and allegedly wielded his power to persuade” women to have sex. None of this sounds criminal. Then I read time and again that he had a thousand bottles of baby oil. Which also isn’t a crime.

I’m not a fan or anything. I have zero interest in defending this guy. I simply want to understand what happened.

  1. The AP story goes into detail, but you said you didn’t want links. He hired male prostitutes to perform for him but had unpaid women perform with those prostitutes. When some women tried to back out, he assaulted them or had underlings threaten them, sometimes with blackmail and sometimes with weapons.

    1. Thank you, this is very clear. I have no idea why no source I read even mentioned assault. If he’s arrested for assault, then serves him right, that jerk.

      Every piece I read made it about sex and not assault, which is the real crime here.

      1. OK, I read the indictment. He’s not charged with assault. He’s charged with transporting prostitutes across state lines and procuring drugs for them.

        He’ll receive minimal penalties for these trivial acts and we’ll hear endless conspiracy theories how he was a second Epstein and “the Deep State” protected him.

        1. “transporting prostitutes across state lines “

          The Mann Act is still a thing? Color me surprised!

          “Sex trafficking” stands for pimping”

          Plain pimping? I thought it was about forced prostitution thought it might just refer to the Mann Act’s “prostitution or debauchery, or for any other immoral purpose”

          1. He paid the male prostitutes. But the women participated for free. Some of the women seem to claim that they didn’t consent.

            Debauchery is the perfect term for it but I had no idea California took debauched sex so seriously.

  2. P.Diddy is basically the Jeffrey Epstein of the music world. The reason it makes the news at all, is because there are probably ALL the big industry names involved somehow, probably a lot of blackmail material tucked away in safes, and probably, the cops are busy shredding a lot of hard drives to prevent that info going public.

    1. All of the participants of P. Diddy’s orgies were adult, though. Nobody alleged any pedophilia. What would the blackmail be about? That adults hired prostitutes for sex orgies?

      1. Ok, skimming over the charges… best guess is he tried to blackmail the wrong person, and this is a controlled demolition that lets cleaners access his house/electronics and intimidate anybody connected to him. Won’t matter if the charges stick because that wasn’t the goal.
