* Five -score -acting accusation claims rocket, trade * Combs ‘advocates call its sexual acts’ defined by permission ‘ * Trial that is scheduled on May 5 (add a statement from Combs’ Attorneys, details from Deceive accusation, paragraphs 3, 5) by Luc Cohen and Jonathan Stamp New York, April 4 (Reuters). Hip-hop-mogul with five criminal charges, including rocket and sex trade. Combs, 55, previously did not plead guilty to an earlier charge of three counts. The new indictment contains additional charges of sex trafficking and transportation to work on prostitution, and it may be more time on the imprisonment if convicted. Both accusations refer to three of Combs’s alleged victims. Combs’ trial remains scheduled for May 5 in the Federal Court in Manhattan. Prosecutors asked US district judge Arun Subramanian to come to the new indictment on April 25. In a statement provided by Combs’s media restatives, his advocates said: “These are not new allegations or new accusers. These are the same individuals, former long-term friends involved in consensual relationships. It was their private sex life, defined with permission, not foxing.” Prosecutors said Combs used his businessman to sexually abuse women between 2004 and 2024. The alleged abuse has, among other things, that women participate in recorded sexual actions, called ‘freak offs’ with male sex workers, sometimes transported across the state lines. Combs’s legal team has forcibly denied that he did something wrong. Marc Agnifilo, one of Combs’s lawyers, said Combs had never forced anyone to do sexual acts against their will, and that the freak result was consensual sexual activity. Combs has been jailed in Brooklyn since September. He also stares dozens of civil lawsuits by women and men who have accused him of sexual abuse. New charges The earlier indictment charged Combs with a single transportation to incurred prostitution with three suspected victims. This could have resulted in jurors escaping that score if they doubted Combs’s guilt about any of the victims. Combs is now facing separate transportation of transportation to do with two women prostitution, named after victim-1 and victim-2. The new indictment refers to a third woman, victim-3, as a victim of Combs’s alleged conspiracy. Coms also launched as Puff Daddy and P. Diddy, Combs founded Bad Boy Records and is credited to helping rappers and R&B singers such as Mary J. Blige, Faith Evans, notorious and in the stars in the 1990s and 2000s. But prosecutors said his success hid a dark side, citing incidents, including in March 2016 when Combs was captured on a supervision video that kicked, dragged and threw to a woman trying to leave a hotel in Los Angeles. CNN broadcast a supervision video last year in which it broadcasts and dragged his former friend Casandra Ventura, an R&B singer, known as Cassie. Combs apologized to the broadcast. Agnifilo said the video is not proof of sex trade, and that Combs and Ventura “had a toxic, loving 11-year relationship.” (Reporting by Luc Cohen and Jonathan Stamp in New York; Editing by Rod Nickel, Marguerita Choy and Nia Williams)
