Mega Edition: Diddy And the 3rd Superseded Indictment (5/4/25)

In this filing, the government submits its proposed jury instructions, also known as “requests to charge,” ahead of Sean Combs’ upcoming trial. These instructions lay out how the jury should interpret the law as it applies to the charges in the Third Superseding Indictment, including conspiracy, racketeering (RICO), drug trafficking, sex trafficking, and related offenses. The government requests standard instructions on presumption of innocence, burden of proof, credibility of witnesses (including cooperating witnesses and law enforcement), and the meaning of reasonable doubt. Critically, it also asks the court to include specific legal definitions tied to each alleged crime—for example, the elements of a RICO enterprise and the requirements for proving participation in a drug distribution conspiracy.Furthermore, the government includes instructions regarding the consideration of co-conspirator statements, evidence of prior bad acts, and accomplice testimony, reflecting the sensitive and complex nature of the allegations against Combs. The proposed charges emphasize that the jury must evaluate the case based solely on the evidence presented, without speculation or bias, and that guilt must be proven beyond a reasonable doubt. These instructions, if accepted by the judge, will guide the jury through the legal standards necessary to determine whether Combs is guilty on any or all of the multiple felony counts he faces. The submission underscores the government's intent to secure clear, legally sound guidance for the jury in what is expected to be a high-profile and multifaceted trial.to contact me:[email protected]:gov.uscourts.nysd.628425.275.0.pdf

In a motion filed on April 4, 2025, the U.S. government asked the court to implement protective measures for three key victim-witnesses expected to testify in the criminal trial of Sean "Diddy" Combs. The government argued that Victim-2, Victim-3, and Victim-4 should be permitted to testify under pseudonyms to safeguard their privacy, dignity, and mental well-being. Unlike Victim-1—confirmed to be Cassie Ventura—who has agreed to testify using her full name, the other three requested anonymity due to concerns about harassment, stigma, and professional fallout. Prosecutors further requested that the defense be barred from revealing these individuals' personal details in open court and that any court exhibits containing their names be sealed, with redacted versions available to the public.The motion cited precedent from similar federal cases, including those involving sex trafficking and abuse, where anonymity was granted to protect victims from retraumatization and undue exposure. The government emphasized that these requests were narrowly tailored to balance the victims’ privacy rights with the defendant’s Sixth Amendment rights. The motion was brought under the Crime Victims' Rights Act (18 U.S.C. § 3771), which ensures victims are treated with fairness and respect, and it stressed that denying these protections could discourage victim cooperation or inhibit truthful testimony. If granted, the court’s decision would mark a significant procedural step in shaping how key testimony will be handled in Diddy’s high-profile federal trial.to contact me:[email protected]:gov.uscourts.nysd.628425.211.0_2.pdf

The superseding indictment expands the timeline of Combs' alleged criminal activities, now spanning from 2004 to 2024, and introduces additional charges. Combs is accused of operating a criminal enterprise involving racketeering, sex trafficking, forced labor, kidnapping, arson, bribery, and obstruction of justice. The indictment details that Combs allegedly coerced multiple women, identified as Victim-1, Victim-2, and Victim-3, into engaging in commercial sex acts through force, fraud, and coercion. It also describes incidents where Combs purportedly used violence and intimidation to control his victims, including an instance in March 2016 where he allegedly assaulted a woman in a Los Angeles hotel, an event reportedly captured on video.Furthermore, the indictment alleges that Combs utilized his business entities, such as Bad Boy Entertainment, to facilitate and conceal these illicit activities. He is accused of orchestrating events termed "freak offs," involving orchestrated sexual performances with male sex workers, and transporting individuals across state lines for prostitution. The indictment also includes charges related to Combs allegedly showing a firearm to a female victim during a kidnapping and dangling a woman over an apartment balcony. Combs has pleaded not guilty to all charges and remains in custody awaiting trial.to  contact me:[email protected]:gov.uscourts.nysd.628425.209.0_3.pdf

Jeffrey Epstein’s “Core Four” referred to the group of women who played key roles in recruiting and managing his trafficking operation. These four women—Ghislaine Maxwell, Sarah Kellen, Adriana Ross, and Lesley Groff—allegedly helped Epstein lure underage girls into his network, scheduling massages that often turned into abuse. **Ghislaine Maxwell**, the most infamous of the group, acted as Epstein’s chief recruiter and was convicted in 2021 for sex trafficking. **Sarah Kellen**, Epstein’s personal assistant, was accused of booking and managing the young girls’ schedules, sometimes coercing them into compliance. **Lesley Groff**, another longtime assistant, was described as Epstein’s "executive secretary," allegedly facilitating travel and communication for the victims. **Adriana Ross**, a former model, reportedly helped remove evidence from Epstein’s properties to avoid law enforcement detection.While Maxwell was convicted, Kellen, Groff, and Ross have denied wrongdoing and have not faced criminal charges. Kellen, who changed her name to Sarah Kensington after Epstein’s arrest, claimed she was also a victim, groomed into her role from a young age. Groff's legal team has insisted she was unaware of any abuse, despite being named in multiple lawsuits. Ross, who worked as an Epstein housekeeper and was seen in photographs with Maxwell, has remained largely out of the public eye. Prosecutors described these women as essential to Epstein’s operations, ensuring a steady supply of victims while maintaining his elaborate trafficking network. However, legal scrutiny has largely focused on Maxwell, leaving questions about whether the other three will ever face consequences.to contact me:[email protected]
