Diddy Indicted On Racketeering, Sex Trafficking & More
On Monday, September 16, Sean “Diddy” Combs was taken into federal custody in New York following a grand jury indictment, just days after Dawn Richard, a former member of his groups Danity Kane and Dirty Money, filed a lawsuit accusing him of sexual assault, battery, and failure to provide fair compensation.
The indictment, initially sealed, was unsealed on Tuesday, September 17, revealing that the music mogul faces three charges:racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion, and transportation to engage in prostitution. The federal document states that Diddy “engaged in a persistent and pervasive pattern of abuse toward women and others.”
With allegations dating back to 2008, the indictment accuses Combs of abusing, threatening, and coercing women over the years “to fulfill his sexual desires, protect his reputation, and conceal his behavior.”
This development follows an ongoing federal investigation involving sex trafficking and other criminal offenses, which led to search warrants being executed at his homes in Beverly Hills and Miami in March.
Last November, former Bad Boy singer and model Cassie filed a lawsuit against Combs, accusing him of rape and prolonged physical abuse spanning over a decade. The legal action, filed in Federal District Court in Manhattan under the Adult Survivors Act, detailed that the abuse began shortly after Cassie, born Casandra Ventura, signed with Combs’ Bad Boy Records at age 19.
In May, CNN obtained footage of Sean “Diddy” Combs brutally assaulting Cassie in 2016 at the now-closed InterContinental Hotel in Century City, Los Angeles.
The unsealed indictment portrays Combs as the leader of a criminal enterprise involved in activities including sex trafficking, forced labor, interstate transportation for prostitution, drug offenses, kidnapping, arson, bribery, and obstruction of justice. It also describes the “Freak Off” parties, where Combs allegedly organized and directed elaborate sexual performances, during which he would often masturbate and record the events electronically.
As previously reported, Cassie’s lawsuit, which was settled within 24 hours, detailed a disturbing practice referred to as “voyeurism,” where Combs allegedly coerced her into participating in sexual encounters with male prostitutes while he watched, filmed, and photographed. These events, referred to as “freak offs,” took place in luxury hotels and at Combs’ residences across the U.S.
The indictment also reveals that during the raids on Combs’ homes, authorities seized various “freak off” supplies, including narcotics and over 1,000 bottles of baby oil and lubricant. Firearms were also discovered, including three AR-15s with defaced serial numbers and a drum magazine.
Prosecutors allege that in late 2023, after public allegations surfaced, Combs and his associates attempted to pressure victims and witnesses, including through bribery, to remain silent.
If convicted, Diddy is facing a mandatory minimum sentence of 15 years, and a statutory maximum sentence of life in prison. U.S Attorney Damian Williams opposes granting bail, as his office believes he is both a flight risk and a threat to society.

D. Woods Responds After Three Danity Kane Members Say June 20 LA Block Party Booking Was Made Without Their Consent
D. Woods took to her Instagram Stories to address the controversy surrounding a June 20 Danity Kane appearance at the LA Block Party in Los Angeles, confirming she and Aundrea Fimbres plan to perform at the event. “5,4,3,2, & even 1 — there have been many versions and configurations of Danity Kane. But our fans have always been constant,” she wrote. “Drea & D. Woods thank you for ‘Holding Us Down’ and are looking forward to GOING UP at @lablockparty June 20th. Let’s start the summer off right and continue our 20th Anniversary with a celebration of the music we all love.”
As previously reported by miixtapechiick.com, Danity Kane’s official page issued a statement saying the booking was made by only two members without the knowledge or consent of Dawn Richard, Aubrey O’Day, or Shannon Bex. “This promotion constitutes false advertising and a misleading promotion, creating a false impression of full group participation,” the statement read. “Presenting a two-member lineup under the full Danity Kane name without clear and accurate disclosure results in deception of fans and a clear misrepresentation of what is being offered.”
The June 20 appearance is billed as part of the group’s 20th anniversary. Danity Kane’s Untold Chapter Tour, which ran from December 2025 through January 2026, also featured D. Woods and Fimbres alongside Aubrey O’Day, without Richard or Bex.
Dawn Richard, Aubrey O’Day, and Shannon Bex are calling out a flyer promoting Danity Kane at the LA Block Party at Pershing Square in Los Angeles on June 20, saying they were not informed about the appearance and will not be there.
A statement posted to Danity Kane’s official page confirmed that only two members independently booked the show without the others’ consent. “This promotion constitutes false advertising and a misleading promotion, creating a false impression of full group participation,” the statement read. “Presenting a two-member lineup under the full Danity Kane name without clear and accurate disclosure results in deception of fans and a clear misrepresentation of what is being offered.”
The flyer was posted by the danitykaneontour Instagram account, which wrote “Kicking off this summer with @lablockparty bringing yall back to 20 years ago!”
The situation comes amid an already divided chapter for the group. Danity Kane’s Untold Chapter Tour ran from December 9 through January 2026 and featured Aubrey O’Day, Aundrea Fimbres, and D. Woods, a lineup that did not include the full original group. Dawn Richard said she was not aware of the reunion, and Shannon Bex has been open about stepping away from music to focus on entrepreneurship. Woods, who had not performed with the group since her exit in 2008, addressed her return directly. “The Untold Chapter Starts Now. Ya Girl Is Back and rewriting OUR story,” she wrote.
Ice Spice threw hands with a woman at a McDonald’s in Hollywood on Wednesday, April 15, and the whole thing was caught on camera.
In footage obtained by TMZ, Ice Spice was at the restaurant with a friend when a woman approached their table uninvited and tried to squeeze in next to them. When Ice Spice and her friend asked her to leave, the woman slapped her. A brief scuffle followed before the woman’s friend pulled her away.

It didn’t end there. A second clip filmed outside shows the woman throwing another punch at Ice Spice while the group was crossing the street, leading to another scuffle. Video also shows Ice Spice picking up a phone from the ground belonging to someone in the other group, which she allegedly smashed.
The woman, identified as Vayah, gave her own account, claiming Ice Spice was rude when she approached to show support and that she slapped her after being called a “bitch.”
Ice Spice’s attorney Bradford Cohen said the incident has been reported to the LAPD. “The unprovoked attack on my client has been reported to the LAPD and we will be pursuing any and all avenues to hold the perpetrators responsible for their actions, including criminally and civilly,” Cohen said. “We are also exploring holding the location responsible for their lack of appropriate security.”
As previously reported by miixtapechiick.com, Ice Spice is currently being sued by a New York wig maker over an unpaid $20,000 order for her 2024 Y2K tour.
