Accused by federal prosecutors in New York of having put his “empire” at the service of a violent sex trafficking system, investigators found weapons, drugs and a thousand bottles of lube and baby oil . As legal documents detail, the entertainer regularly hosted “freak offs,” sex parties in which women were forced to have sex with male sex workers and then given drips to recover. Evenings in which many stars participated. It’s difficult, therefore, to imagine that they didn’t know. Moreover, all eyes are now on the celebrities who have crossed his path.
Starting with Justin Bieber, whom P. Diddy took under his wing at the start of the Canadian singer’s career. Also very close to the artist for around twenty years, Usher said in an interview carried out in 2016 that he had seen things that he “was too young to understand and it was quite wild.”
P.Diddy affair: Prince Harry, Usher, David Guetta… All these targeted names circulating on social networks
Other big names are cited in the case, stars who would have taken part in the white parties organized by the rapper (which obviously have no connection with the famous “freaks off”), we can cite Leonardo DiCaprio, Kim Kardashian, Paris Hilton, Sarah Jessica Parker, Mariah Carey and even French DJ David Guetta. However, no complaints have been filed at this stage.
“Witnesses to these acts sometimes also benefit, because they know that everyone is silent. This silence allows many to take advantage of this impunity, where limits are abolished, estimates Dr Dirk Devroey (VUB). With power and money, some people no longer see limits, they are more vague, less concrete. In these kinds of evenings, we indulge in all our desires, and the victims become desensitized and anonymized sexual objects.”.
In this system where the law of silence reigns, it takes a lot of courage to dare to speak, provide evidence, and confront attempts at intimidation. “I treat victims of abuse and I see how difficult it is to rebuild oneself after such acts. It is essential that movements like #MeToo make it possible to change the situation, so that the shame changes sides”.
