“Honestly, I didn’t want to be around him unless there were cameras,” one person shared in the documentary trailer.

Another got more specific.

“I’ve been with Sean for quite a while and I’ve captured a lot of moments,” the second person said, alleging: “Any time a studio or any rooms is red, he’s making love and sex. Some of the ones who went in the room, for sure they were underage.”

Diddy has been behind bars at a Brooklyn detention center since September 2024, when he was arrested and charged with sex trafficking, racketeering conspiracy, and transportation to engage in prostitution. The Bad Boy Records executive, who has pleaded not guilty to the charges against him, awaits trial in May. He has been denied bail three times.

In addition to the federal charges against him, the “I’ll Be Missing You” artist is facing numerous lawsuits, with over 100 men, women and minors accusing him of sex crimes. He has denied all accusations.
