Prosecutors have disclosed in a Manhattan federal court that during raids of P-Diddy’s homes in Los Angeles and Miami Beach Florida six months ago, authorities found drugs and 1,000 bottles of baby oil and lubricant.

The Homeland Security who organised the search at Diddy’s residence said they also found AR-15 rifles with defaced serial numbers.

Prior to this, it had been reported several times that Diddy organises ‘Freak parties’ by buying hard drugs, substances, and other items used during sex.

However, highlighting this in court, the prosecutors said the popular music executive was said to have used his business empire including his record label to transport women, including male sex workers, to participate in recorded sexual performances in which the music mogul would watch and masturbate.

Diddy, currently, has been accused of using his fame as one of hip-hop's biggest names to coerce women into demeaning sexual acts as part of a long-running scheme of sex trafficking and racketeering.

He faces a sentence of up to life in prison, and a minimum of 15 years if convicted of the three felony counts including racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking, and transportation to engage in prostitution.

According to a Reuters report, the 54-year rapper has pleaded not guilty hours after the 14-page indictment was uncovered in court.

He has also been denied bail by the U.S. Magistrate, Judge Robyn Tarnofsky.

P Diddy is the highest music industry figure charged with sexual misconduct after R&B singer R. Kelly who was sentenced to a combined 31 years in prison after being convicted in New York in 2021 and Chicago in 2022 for sex trafficking, racketeering, child sex crimes, and other counts.
