Sean Diddy Combs was arrested by federal agents in September on suspicion of human trafficking, racketeering conspiracy, and transportation to engage in prostitution. Still incarcerated at Brooklyn's Metropolitan Detention Center, the disgraced music mogul continues to enter a not guilty plea to the charges. He is being held without bond while he awaits the start of his trial in May of next year.

Numerous plaintiffs have since filed waves of lawsuits against the rapper, alleging sexual assault. The latest allegation is made by a woman who says Combs assaulted her when she was 13 at an MTV Video Music Awards after-party.
