See all the shocking photos released from Diddy trial so far as star fights sex trafficking charges
As Sean ' Diddy ' Combs fights his ongoing federal trial in Manhattan, prosecutors have presented a cache of suggestive, racy, and allegedly damning images from his heyday.
On Monday, perhaps the most shocking set of images were released as the trial focused on the day Combs was arrested in a New York City hotel room in September 2024.
Diddy had already been indicted at the time and was holed up in a hotel room at the Park Hyatt Hotel in Midtown Manhattan for over a week, waiting for his imminent arrest.
But according to prosecutors, the disgraced rap mogul was intent on having one last hurrah 'freak off' before being taken into custody, and when officers breached his room they found a trove of baby oil and drugs awaiting the sexual marathons.
The release of the images sparked a frenzy on social media - after the public previously saw shocking text messages where Cassie Ventura said she 'loved' freak offs.
Other bombshell images from the trial included injuries Cassie says she sustained in their turbulent relationship, and intimate pictures from the first time the couple had sex on ecstasy after her 21st birthday.
Here, DailyMail.com reveals the most scandalous and eye-popping images that lift the lid on Diddy's alleged life of debauchery.
DIDDY'S HOTEL ROOM ARREST
Gasps were reportedly heard inside the Manhattan courtroom when the images from inside Diddy's hotel room arrest were revealed this week.
Images taken inside the room show an arrangement of baby oil - a product now intrinsically linked with Diddy's sex trafficking case - near to a mysterious pink powder in small bags.
Pills in bottles prescribed to 'Frank Black', a possible pseudonym for Combs, were also in the room, alongside mood lighting and stacks of cash.
Prosecutors claimed some drugs found in the room were found to be ketamine and MDMA, and Cassie testified that 'pungent' candles were also a common theme in the freak offs.
THE TRIP THAT CHANGED EVERYTHING
Cassie told the court that when she first met Combs almost 20 years ago, their relationship was a platonic mentorship to help her music career.
But she said everything changed shortly after she turned 21, when they had sex for the first time on a trip to Miami and their tryst escalated.
She said they had been day-drinking on a boat party and alleged that Diddy gave her an ecstasy pill shaped like a blue dolphin.
'We were just having a good time,' she recalled.

BEHIND THE SCENES AT THE FREAK OFFS
Cassie offered intimate details of how particular Diddy allegedly was about his 'freak-off' sessions as prosecutors showed behind-the-scenes images from preparations for the events.
In one image, Cassie was seen wearing a long thigh-high lace boot, and she said she often wore outfits and wigs during the marathon sexual performances.
Cassie also alleged that Diddy would use mood lighting and a 'red room' to set the tone for the hours-long sessions.
CASSIE'S BUSTED LIP
Diddy's ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura took the stand for over four days at the start of the high-profile trial, where she claimed she suffered years of abuse and was coerced into the 'freak offs.'
At the conclusion of her testimony, prosecutors showed an image of the singer with a busted lip.
Cassie said she sustained the injury in a horror episode inside a Los Angeles hotel where Combs was caught on surveillance footage kicking and stomping on her.
'That's me, a selfie of me with a fat lip,' the singer said in court when questioned over the picture.
In another injury picture, Cassie was seen with a large cut over her eye that she alleged happened when Diddy threw her into a bed frame in Canada.
A-LISTERS AT INFAMOUS 'DIDDY PARTIES'
Throughout the weeks-long trial, a number of A-list celebrities and high-profile figures have been named and seen in pictures related to Diddy's notorious parties.
Not all celebrities in the images are accused of any wrongdoing, but were seen living it up at the same parties where women were allegedly drugged and coerced.
Stars including Leo DiCaprio have been snapped at the bashes, including one where The Revenant actor sipped champagne surrounded by Diddy and other attendees.
Other pictures showed Cassie and Diddy lounging on a couch outside as other women joined them, and in another Cassie was seen partying with former best friend Kerry Morgan for her 21st birthday.
CASSIE AND DIDDY'S TEXTS
While most of the eye-grabbing images have come from prosecutors and civil plaintiffs, Diddy's legal team introduced salacious text messages that offer an insight into his fateful relationship with Cassie.
The texts showed Cassie saying she 'loved' the freak offs that she testified were forced upon her.
Diddy's lawyer Anna Estevao used the messages in court on Thursday in an effort to paint Cassie, 38, as a willing participant in the drug-fueled sex sessions that could last up to four days.
'I love our FOs when we both want it,' she wrote in one missive, adding: 'I want to Freak Off right now LOL. I want to have fun with you.'
Diddy replied: 'Let me know if you want to have a late night. Jules is available. If you're not into that NP. We can just do a thing. Love you.'
Cassie simply replies with a 'love you' back.
INSIDE DIDDY'S TRASHED MIAMI MANSION
Photos exclusively revealed by DailyMail.com following a raid on Diddy's mansion in Miami in March 2024 showed the property was turned upside down by feds.
The raid took center stage at Diddy's trial this week as agents testified that they found 'parts of AR-15 rifles' in the mansion.
They said they also found 'sex toys and Astroglide', and an agent said the serial numbers had been scratched off weapons to make them untraceable.

RAPPER'S VODKA-FUELED GLARE
Before the rapper's criminal trial got underway, Diddy was hit with a raft of civil lawsuits that included shocking images from his notorious parties.
In a lawsuit filed in October 2024, a month after his arrest, images from the filing offered a behind-the-scenes look at the events.
Combs is seen dancing with young women in a Las Vegas hotel room party, and in another picture he sat at a table surrounded by bottles of Diddy's own vodka brand Ciroc.
He appeared to catch the person photographing him in the act, and in the next image Diddy was seen glaring at them across the table.
The images were filed by a woman who alleged that she was drugged with the date-rape drug GHB, with another picture showing a small plastic container she alleged was used.

‘Allegory for the times we live in': De Niro and Scorsese reunite for Casino at 30
For this year's Tribeca film festival, the annual New York salute to moviemaking featured a special screening of Casino, the Martin Scorsese-directed drama starring Robert De Niro, Joe Pesci and Sharon Stone, timed to its 30th anniversary. But even though the splashy epic premiered in this same city back in November 1995, its themes of power, money, greed and ego are echoing in the modern ethos louder than ever. 'You can go back to the ancient Greek tragedies,' said Scorsese, speaking alongside De Niro and moderated by standup comedian W Kamau Bell on stage at the Beacon Theater before the screening. 'It's a basic story of hubris and pride, with the pride taking us all down.' '[Joe Pesci's character] sort of takes nobody's input,' said Bell to De Niro. 'It's his ideas or the highway, and that ultimately leads to his destruction. It's almost an allegory for the times we live in. I don't know if you guys ever thought about that?' 'Yeah, a little bit,' De Niro snickered back to guffaws from the crowd. 'Do you have a couple hours?' The release of Casino in the mid-90s, which focuses on the tragic exploits of the mafia that controlled Las Vegas and the excess that came with it, arrived at a time when that culture was on a downswing, with the decade seeing crusaders such as Rudy Giuliani bringing down organized crime one-by-one. Zooming out, it also arrived smack in the middle of the Clinton administration, all making the characters in Casino seem like fringe figures. But judging by the constant drumbeat of headlines from the current American political climate, 2025 depicts a starkly different world, and with that a Casino for fresh eyes. Even the style and culture of Vegas is entirely different. Or is it? 'Now you can bring the family!' said Scorsese of its cleaner reputation present-day, as opposed to the era when it was Sin City; a town where anything goes. Still, Bell couldn't help but ask: 'Is Vegas better when it's run by the mafia, or is it better now when it's run by the corporations?' 'Is there a difference?' Scorsese smirked as the crowd roared. 'That's all I'm saying.' 'These days especially,' De Niro chimed in. Adapted from the book by Nicholas Pileggi and based on the true events of Chicago transplant Frank 'Lefty' Rosenthal, Casino was born during unique times in Scorsese's filmography. The director had just helmed the lush and quiet Age of Innocence, a subtle love story based on the Edith Wharton novel about 1870s New York. When Casino was released, audiences couldn't help but relate it to the film-maker's other story of mafia and hubris: Goodfellas, which came out five years beforehand and also starred De Niro and Pesci. ' It was compared, I would say, unfairly and lazily to Goodfellas, but in the 30 years since, I think it's grown up quite well,' said Bell. As the years have ticked by, the gap between the two films comparisons have widened, yet again allowing the viewer to watch Casino not thinking of it as a sort-of follow-up, but a standalone film. 'The idea was to take the last 15 minutes before [Ray Liotta's character] Henry Hill gets arrested in Goodfellas and make that one film,' Scorsese said of the memorably manic sequence during which we see Hill stretched thin with nerves frayed, edited together with a series of quick cuts and a pulsating soundtrack. 'In other words, take it even further and just go to the point where we can sustain that style, which really came from (the rhythm) of storytelling on a street corner. Some of the best actors we ever knew were the kids telling the stories on the street.' As a result, the director and actor spoke about weeks of night shoots, loud casinos and the movie's intense violence (they had to tone down a scene when a man's eyes bulge out after his head is put in a vice). Scorsese also recalled trying to finagle having Rosenthal visit the set while the mobster was listed in the state's Black Book; a persona non grata in Nevada. The director went as far as working with former MPAA president Jack Valenti to use his vast connections at the time to lift the ban. 'Jack called me and he said: 'Martin, I've never had so many doors closing my face so fast in my life,'' impersonating Valenti's Texas drawl. 'This man is a member of the ma-fia.' De Niro was reliably quieter while Scorsese discussed the film, a hallmark of their relationship. When asked about his memorable wardrobe in the film; his flashy suits a trademark of the character, De Niro said an archive of his costumes are stored at the University of Texas at Austin. 'I was collecting all of this stuff for years and it started getting expensive,' said De Niro, who realized that after he filmed Scorsese's musical New York, New York, all of his wardrobe was being pilfered and he realized he should preserve them 'When I was getting fitted for my shoes for Godfather II, I think they were the shoes Warren Beatty wore in Bonnie and Clyde.' When asked about advice to the young film-makers in the audience, De Niro offered rallying words. ' I just say follow through on what you want to do. It might not be easy, but the only person you have is yourself to keep going. You just gotta keep doing it and believing in yourself. God helps those who help themselves.' Scorsese echoed those sentiments, noting it's never easy when it comes to the craft, even at his high level '[People will say:] 'Oh, you have money and everything working for you' and that's never really the case. Often if you get a bigger budget, it's worse in terms of the production. The more money, the more risk and therefore the pressure is on to take less chances aesthetically and artistically.' 'One thing [the director] Arthur Penn told me when I was a young film-maker was: 'Remember, don't lose your amateur status.' He was right. You struggle feeling like an amateur, but it's amator, in Latin, which means love. That's the thing you gotta hold on to.' However, Scorsese left the audience with this: ' The time is now to take advantage of whatever you can say,' said Scorsese. 'Who knows what's gonna happen. You have to really utilize what supposedly is called free speech.'

Jury finds Milwaukee man guilty of killing and dismembering 19-year-old woman
A jury found a Milwaukee man guilty Friday of killing and dismembering a 19-year-old college student on the night of their first date. Prosecutors charged Maxwell Anderson in April 2024 with first-degree intentional homicide, dismembering a corpse, arson and hiding a corpse in connection with Sade Robinson's death. The jury convicted Anderson on all four counts. Investigators believe Anderson killed her on their first date on April 1, 2024, dismembered her body and spread her remains around Milwaukee County. They also believe he burned her car to hide evidence. Anderson's attorney, Tony Cotton, argued during the eight-day trial that no DNA links Anderson to the crimes. Cotton did not immediately respond to an email seeking comment on Friday's verdicts. Anderson faces a mandatory life sentence in prison when he's sentenced Aug. 15.

Gleeful leftist late night hosts delight in Trump Musk fallout: 'The big, beautiful betrayal'
Gleeful late-night hosts took victory laps around President Donald Trump and Elon Musk Thursday as they delighted in the pair falling out. Across the board, the MAGA-hating panel of hosts rejoiced in the spat. They repeated Musk's claim that Trump is 'named in the Epstein files', mocked SpaceX 's record of exploding rockets and questioned what Trump would now do with his Tesla. The spat made for easy material for the hosts, who are struggling to maintain ratings with a tired format. Among the most delighted was Jimmy Fallon. 'You can tell Trump is really mad at Elon because earlier today he was seen driving a Prius,' the former SNL star noted. 'Trump said he hasn't felt this betrayed since McDonald's started putting apple slices in Happy Meals. 'It's orange vs. white,' he added. 'It's like watching a creamsicle attack itself.' Over on CBS, Stephen Colbert sang a similar tune, also reveling in the rift between whom he smarmily put as 'the world's most famous besties'. It all happened on social media, serving as easy ammo for the hosts. 'So now Donald Trump is a Tesla owner who hates Elon Musk?' Colbert asked during a more than 12-minute monologue devoted to the subject. 'He's never been more relatable.' He then honed in Musk's claim that Trump is 'in the [Jeffrey] Epstein files' - documents involving the late financier and his alleged accomplices spread out across various probes and lawsuits that have been mostly kept classified. 'Trump's going to have to get one of those bumper stickers for his Tesla that says "I bought this before Elon told everyone I was on Epstein's plane,"' Colbert quipped, as hosts like Jimmy Kimmel and Seth Meyers offered similar, smug material. 'The real truth is that Musk is mad about the things that affect him, like cutting the electric vehicle tax credit, not using his company Starlink for air traffic control, and that they pulled his friend's nomination for head of NASA,' Kimmel laughed on the set of Jimmy Kimmel Live! 'What Elon Musk cares about is Elon Musk,' he further noted on his ABC show, before bringing the First Lady into the mix 'Now, between Elon and Melania, Trump now has two foreigners who won't sleep with him. 'I feel bad for Donald Trump,' he then added. 'I mean, first, he lost Jeffrey Epstein, now, Elon. He's running out of friends. 'You know, I knew this day would come, and yet, somehow, it's even better than I imagined,' he kept on. 'It's like coming down the stairs on Christmas morning and finding a second tree.' On Late Night, Seth Meyers showed similar bias, labeling the feud over 'Trump's Big Beautiful bill' a 'stunning turn of events'. The comic then offered some uncharacteristic stern words. 'Things have been bad for Elon, which is what happens to everyone who sells their soul to Trump.' The Daily Show's Michael Kosta, filling in for Jon Stewart, also commented on the quarrel. He sarcastically opened the show with: 'America, tonight we are a nation at war.' 'I thought these two billionaires with the world's biggest egos would work it out amicably.' the Daily Show senior correspondent said sarcastically. 'Washington is a lot like high school and not just because all the politicians are trying to date high-schoolers.' Fallon further fanned the flames with a reference to the recent Blur Origin broadcast live by rival CBS, which featured a crew of pop stars, TV personalities, and Jeff Bezos's fiancée. 'Trump said that the easiest way for the country to save money would be to terminate all of Elon Musk's government contracts,' Fallon set-up. 'Smart, now the future of space exploration rests on Katy Perry.' Colbert, meanwhile, went as far as to mimic Musk's accent, while further fanning the flames surrounding Musk's claims Trump is linked to a convicted pedophile. 'Donald Trump, was a sexual predator that preyed on young women, which is something I've only decided to tell you because he hurt my feelings,' he said, speaking as if he were the Tesla boss. 'I am the hero of the story!' A White House official on Thursday said Trump and Musk were scheduled to speak in person on Friday. The official did not give a time for the call, which could ease the feuding after an extraordinary day of hostilities. Meanwhile, late night, as a format, is on the decline. Numbers show Greg Gutfeld's late night-styled Fox alternative attracting the largest average nightly audience of the field - something unthinkable just a decade ago. Epstein, moreover, died in prison in 2019 after being convicted. He and Trump were once close friends.
