Combs’ downfall began in November 2023, when his ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura filed a lawsuit that accused him of sexual and physical abuse.
Although nothing serious came out of it, federal investigations decided to look closer into Combs’ lifestyle.
Authorities executed search warrants over his properties in Los Angeles and Miami and interviewed several people in relation to sexual assault and distribution of illegal narcotics and firearms.

“We are disappointed with the decision to pursue what we believe is an unjust prosecution of Mr. Combs by the U.S. Attorney’s Office,” Agnifilo said.
“Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs is a music icon, self-made entrepreneur, loving family man, and proven philanthropist who has spent the last 30 years building an empire.”
