The 54-year old Bad Boy mogul had a decades-long history of dodging major criminal allegations, but the time had come for him to face the music regarding some very serious felony charges.</p><p>In a 14-page indictment, prosecutors alleged Combs used his music empire to transport women and male prostitutes across states and forced them to perform demeaning sexual acts while he masturbated and recorded what he called “Freak Off” parties. Prosecutors went on to say they had found 1000 bottles of baby oil - and lube - during their raid of the rapper’s home.</p><p>On October 1st, Texas attorney Tony Buzbee made a bombshell announcement that he will represent 120 victims in lawsuits against Diddy. Buzbee added 25 of the alleged 120 victims are minors, the youngest 9-years old at the time of the incident.&nbsp;</p><p>In the fourth episode of this special series of The Trial, DailyMail.com’s West Coast News Editor Marjorie Hernandez and guests look at Combs’ ever-mounting business troubles, consider the statements by Cassie Ventura and Denise Richard, and ask if Diddy’s seemingly unlimited power and super elevated status have contributed to his downfall.</p><p>Guests</p><p>Lisa Bloom is a Los Angeles-based civil rights attorney known for representing sexual assault victims against celebrity defendants like Bill Cosby.</p><p>Gerrick Kennedy is an author and former Los Angeles Times reporter.</p><p>Greg Kading is a retired LAPD homicide detective. In 2006 he was recruited to reinvestigate the murder Christopher Wallace, AKA Biggie Smalls.</p><p>Lou Shapiro is a state and federal criminal law attorney based in Los Angeles.</p><p>The Trial: USA is part of the Crime Desk.
