Sean 'Diddy' Combs' Legal Team Denounces Charges as "Sexist and Puritanical"
Lawyers for Sean 'Diddy' Combs are taking aim at the prosecution’s narrative in the high-profile sex trafficking case against the hip-hop mogul, calling it "sexist and puritanical." In a letter to a Manhattan federal judge, the defense team argued that nine key video recordings allegedly proving the charges depict consensual adult activities and not criminal acts.

"Any fair-minded viewer of the videos will quickly conclude that the prosecution of Mr. Combs is both sexist and puritanical," the lawyers wrote, asserting that the government's case perpetuates "stereotypes of female victimhood and lack of agency."

Combs, 55, has pleaded not guilty to sex trafficking charges stemming from allegations that he organized "elaborate and produced sex performances" referred to as "Freak Offs." Prosecutors allege these encounters were orchestrated by Combs, involved male sex workers, and were accompanied by drug use to "keep the victims obedient and compliant."

The indictment describes "Freak Offs" as events lasting days, with participants drugged, recorded, and provided with items like baby oil and lubricant—over 1,000 bottles of which were allegedly found during raids of Combs’ Los Angeles and Miami homes.

Combs’ legal team challenges this portrayal, stating that the nine videos, supplied by a woman identified as "Victim-1," depict consensual and voluntary interactions.

"In all six of these encounters," the lawyers wrote, "Victim-1 is not only consenting; she is evidently happy, dominant, and completely in control." They emphasized that the recordings show no signs of violence, coercion, or incapacitation.

The defense also argued that the videos lack evidence of orgies, minors, or the involvement of other celebrities, countering claims that the events were exploitative.

The legal team criticized the government for allegedly policing "non-conforming sexual activity" and assuming that "a woman's willing participation must have been coerced."

Combs has been held without bail since his September arrest, with multiple judges denying his release. His trial is scheduled for May 5.

Defense lawyers are requesting further access to the videos, noting that they’ve only been allowed to review them twice over the past two months. They contend that the recordings, described as "quite dark and grainy," require expert analysis to enhance the quality and verify metadata.

The prosecution has not commented on the defense’s recent submission.

Combs’ attorneys argue that the government's portrayal depends on characterizing the sex performances as "dirty, disgusting, or inherently unsavory." They maintain that the evidence contradicts the prosecution’s claims of trafficking and coercion, portraying their client as a target of overreach and societal bias.
