Prosecutors revealed that nearly 100 devices were seized from Sean “Diddy” Combs' Miami home during the raids that took place earlier this year. This was revealed during Diddy's October 10 court hearing, where the rapper’s trial date was set as May 5, 2025. The Bad Boy Records founder remains behind bars as he awaits his trial.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Emily Johnson revealed in court that they had uncovered 96 devices from the rapper’s two mansions during a raid. They also procured other devices at a private airport in Florida. Following Diddy’s September 16 arrest, four more devices were reportedly collected.

This comes after Combs faced charges of racketeering conspiracy, s*x trafficking by force, fraud or coercion, and transportation to engage in pr*stitution.

Speaking about what law enforcement had uncovered, Johnson revealed that eight of the devices had 90 terabytes of information, which she described as “extraordinary.” The technological team has reportedly been doing their best to uncover more information.

During the October 10 trial, Judge Arun Subramanian set Diddy’s trial date as May 5, 2025. Previously, the musician’s attorneys had requested that the trial begin in April or May of next year.

Subramanian revealed that Combs will remain detained following his latest appeal for bail. Diddy has remained in the Special Housing Unit at Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center since his arrest last month.

Combs’ children and mother accompanied the rapper during his recent hearing. The hip-hop mogul's sons, Justin, Christian, and Quincy, along with his daughters D’Lila, and Jessie, attended the hearing.

During the court hearing, Subramanian set deadlines for both sides to submit the arguments that would create boundaries for the upcoming trial. Combs was also ordered to appear in court in December, however, his lawyers claimed that it would be unnecessary.

Following the rapper’s arrest last month, Texas-based lawyer Tony Buzbee said in a press statement that he was representing 120 alleged victims of Combs. Buzbee revealed that the allegations included “violent s*xual assault or r*pe,” “dissemination of video recordings” and “s*xual abuse of minors.”

He also stated that the youngest alleged victim was 9 years old at the time of occurrence. Buzbee further shared that he was representing 60 males and 60 females, with incidents going as far back as 1991.

Combs’ federal indictment also revealed that the Homeland Security Investigations agents seized thousands of bottles of baby oil and lubricants that were allegedly used during Combs’ “freak offs.”

The indictment also alleged that Diddy abused, threatened, and coerced women for years "to fulfill his s*xual desires" and to “protect his reputation and conceal his conduct.”

It was alleged that the musician used his power to create a “criminal enterprise whose members and associates engaged in, and attempted to engage in, among other crimes, s*x trafficking, forced labor, kidnapping, arson, bribery and obstruction of justice.”

Meanwhile, Diddy’s mother, Janice Small Combs, released a statement through her attorney, Natlie G. Figgers, on October 6, sharing that it was “heartbreaking” to see her son judged by the public and undergo a “public lynching” without him getting the opportunity to defend himself in court.


Sean Combs has maintained his innocence in all the cases against him.
