Prosecutors have said "freak off" videos are evidence of Combs' sexual abuse. Defense attorneys for Sean "Diddy" Combs claimed in a new court filing on Tuesday that videos depicting sexual activity between the rapper, his ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura and male prostitutes "confirm Mr. Combs's innocence" because they show sexual activity among "consenting adults.
There are nine videos of what prosecutors have alleged Combs called "freak offs" -- described by prosecutors as "elaborate and produced sex performances" -- that are currently available for defense attorneys to view. They're asking the judge for electronic copies.
Prosecutors have said the "freak offs" are evidence that Combs coerced, drugged and kidnapped women into sexual activity and hired prostitutes to join. Ventura alleged in a civil lawsuit that Combs "regularly beat and kicked" her, "leaving black eyes, bruises, and blood. The defense filing took a sharply different view. The videos confirm that she plainly was," the defense said.
Combs, who was arrested in September on sex trafficking charges , remains in custody in the federal Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn after a judge denied him bail. Federal prosecutors allege that Combs had "abused, threatened, and coerced women and others around him to fulfill his sexual desires, protect his reputation, and conceal his conduct" since He was charged with sex trafficking by force, transportation to engage in prostitution and racketeering conspiracy, alleging he ran an "enterprise that he engaged in sex trafficking, forced labor or, kidnapping, arson and other crimes," according to the federal indictment.
