Prosecutors Accuse Diddy of Using Request for Alleged “Freak Off” Tape as Intimidation Tactic

Sean “Diddy” Combs finds himself entangled in ongoing legal battles, and the controversies surrounding him show no signs of fading. Recently, the Bad Boy mogul’s legal team accused prosecutors of deliberately withholding access to certain alleged “freak off” tapes. According to Diddy’s defense, these tapes contain nothing more than footage of consenting adults engaging in intimate activities, and they argue that their client has a right to review them.

However, federal prosecutors are pushing back against this demand, citing serious concerns over the protection of alleged victims and potential intimidation tactics. According to a report, the prosecution insists that the tapes remain under strict protection to prevent any harm or undue influence on the individuals involved. While Diddy has already been permitted to review the tapes twice under supervised conditions, his legal team is now requesting that the materials be electronically provided for further examination.

Prosecutors have strongly opposed this request, arguing that Diddy has already demonstrated a lack of regard for the court’s Protective Order. They claim that he has previously described the contents of the tapes in a way that seemed “calculated to embarrass Victim-1.” This, they argue, raises concerns about his potential use of the footage outside of legal proceedings.

“Counsel for Victim-1 continues to have serious concerns about the security of such videos, including the possibility of third parties gaining access to them surreptitiously or unlawfully due to the highly publicized nature of this case,” stated U.S. Attorney Danielle R. Sassoon.

As a middle ground, prosecutors have proposed an alternative that would still allow Diddy’s team to analyze the tapes but under supervised conditions. They have also offered access to metadata and enhanced audio, which would be reviewed by a neutral third party. Despite these concessions, prosecutors maintain that Victim-1 opposes any modifications to the Protective Order, fearing that any further access to the footage could lead to leaks or misuse that could inflict additional harm on those involved.
