Feds allege that Diddy “arranged and directed” the freak-offs while he pleasured himself and often recorded the videos – allegedly without the participant’s consent.
They claim Diddy ensured their participation in the freak-offs by providing narcotics, controlling their careers and using intimidation and violence to get them to participate in the performances – which sometimes lasted for days.
The Feds say Diddy used his various businesses and his employees to carry out, facilitate and cover up his abuse.
In addition to the pr**itution charges, Diddy is charged with participating in a criminal enterprise that included kidnapping, arson, bribery, narcotics offenses and obstruction of justice.

According to prosecutors, Diddy may have a deep well of escorts to testify on his behalf.
“Our investigation is ongoing, and so I can’t say too much about this, but I will note that half a dozen escorts is just the tip of the iceberg of the number of escorts who have participated in freak-offs,” a lawyer on the prosecution team said.
Diddy is charged with one count of racketeering conspiracy, which carries a maximum sentence of life in prison.
