The indictment alleges Combs’ victims were enmeshed in a web of control through “physical violence” and the promise of career advancement, with Combs “granting and threatening to withhold financial support, and by other coercive means, including tracking their whereabouts, dictating the victims’ appearance, monitoring their medical records, controlling their housing, and supplying them with controlled substances.”
When Combs didn’t “get his way, he was violent,” Damian Williams, U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York, said at a news conference Tuesday.
Federal prosecutors mention the 2016 hotel surveillance video that showed Combs allegedly physically assaulting his former girlfriend, Cassie Ventura.
When a hotel security worker intervened, Combs tried to bribe the worker with a “stack of cash” to keep the incident quiet, Williams said.
