Sean "Diddy" Combs is allegedly planning to call the escorts from his freak-off parties to testify on his behalf in his upcoming trial, as per AllHipHop.

This report comes nearly two months after the rapper was arrested in Manhattan, New York, on charges of racketeering conspiracy; s*x trafficking by force, fraud or coercion; and transportation to engage in prostitution, per the legal documents.

Since the rapper's freak-off parties have been highlighted multiple times in his indictment, Diddy is now reportedly planning to call the escorts from those parties to "dispute the government's account of what happened during them," per AllHipHop.


Diddy's indictment claimed he used videos from his freak-off parties to blackmail his victims

According to Variety, Diddy's indictment stated his freak-off parties to be elaborate events where hired escorts would "produce s*xual performances" directed by the rapper. The 55-year-old allegedly not only directed these performances but also m******ated during them, alongside recording them electronically, without the participants' consent.

It further stated that the Satisfy You rapper was not beyond using narcotics as well as violence and intimidation to ensure their participation in the freak-offs, which often lasted for days.

Both Combs and his personnel carried firearms, with the rapper often brandishing a gun to threaten his victims. The searches conducted at his residences in March 2024 seized multiple AR-15s with defaced serial numbers as well as drum magazines.

Other items seized from Diddy's homes included his "freak-off supplies" like drugs, over 1,000 bottles of baby oil, and other lubricants.

The indictment also accused the rapper of later using the videos recorded at his freak-offs to hold as collateral over his victims, ensuring that they remained silent about their abuse.

Elsewhere in the indictment, Diddy was accused of offering both financial rewards and punishments to control his victims.


Diddy has been denied bail 3 times since his arrest

Following his arrest in September, Diddy has applied for a bond bail three times, two of which have been denied by the judge of the New York court, with the third one currently under consideration. The denials come after the prosecutors submitted a 16-page detention letter asking for the rapper to be held without bail.

The letter called the Bad Boy for Life rapper a flight risk, also highlighting his ability to tamper with evidence, given his "tremendous wealth and connections. The letter continued to add:

"In short, if the defendant wanted to flee, he has the money, manpower, and tools to do so quickly and without detection. he defendant’s lack of access to his passport or private jet would not negate the fact that the defendant could easily buy his way out of facing justice."

Andre Damian Williams - the US attorney for the Southern District of New York - has also said at a press conference in September that the Victory rapper and his associates have tried to impede the federal investigation before the rapper's arrest, adding:

"He and others pressured witnesses and victims to stay silent, including by making phone calls to witnesses and victims and giving them a false narrative of what they had experienced."

Meanwhile, the rapper's lawyer, Marc Agnifilo, is adamant about the rapper's innocence.

In a statement released soon after the 55-year-old's arrest in September, he called the prosecution of Combs "unjust." He also labeled Diddy a "music icon, self-made entrepreneur, loving family man, and proven philanthropist who has spent the last 30 years building an empire, adoring his children, and working to uplift the Black community."

Agnifilo also urged people to reserve their judgment until they had "all the facts."


Following the denial of his bail bonds, Diddy continues to be held in custody in Brooklyn's Metropolitan Detention Center. His trial is scheduled to begin on May 5, 2025.
