Sean “Diddy” Combs has reportedly put up his house in Miami as collateral in a $50 million bond proposal as he pled “not guilty” to the charges against him. According to documents submitted to the court, Combs put forth his mother, sister, and adult sons as guarantors, as well as the equity in his mother’s home (which he bought), in addition to surrendering his passport (all of his immediately family members had already surrendered theirs, including his youngest, Love Combs).
Combs was charged with “racketeering conspiracy; sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion; and transportation to engage in prostitution” after being arrested in New York earlier this week.
The Bad Boy founder’s problems initially began in November 2023, when he was sued by former girlfriend Cassie Ventura, who alleged that he raped and repeatedly abused her over the course of their decade-long courtship. Although she and Diddy settled the lawsuit less than a day after the news broke, the floodgates opened; Diddy was sued by a multitude of accusers alleging offenses going back decades, including another as recently as this month from former Danity Kane member Dawn Richards.
Diddy has since been stripped of his honorary degree from Howard University, had several other honors rescinded, and had several of his homes raided, during which authorities recovered illegal firearms and other dubious paraphernalia supposedly related to his sex trafficking activities.
