Today, we're bringing you episode five of the latest podcast from 20/20 and ABC Audio, "Bad Rap: The Case Against Diddy."

As the wave of civil lawsuits against Diddy continues to grow, in March of 2024, federal agents raid two of his properties in connection to a human trafficking investigation. Just a couple months later, an old video of Diddy beating, kicking and dragging his then-girlfriend Cassie Ventura in the hallway of a hotel surfaces, with devastating consequences. He publicly apologizes for his behavior and says he went to therapy. By September 2024, he’s arrested and indicted on federal charges of racketeering, sex trafficking, and transportation to engage in prostitution. He pleads not guilty to all charges.

If you or someone you know is a victim of sexual assault, please call the National Sexual Assault Hotline: 1-800-656-HOPE or go to rainn.org.
