Sean "Diddy" Combs, the hip-hop mogul who built a billion-dollar empire, is currently facing serious legal challenges that threaten his vast fortune. As of June 2025, Combs is in the midst of a trial where prosecutors have taken aggressive action against his assets under the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act.Last month, on May 16, 2025, reports emerged that Combs could lose most of his estimated $400 million fortune if found guilty of all charges. The Justice Department is pursuing forfeiture action, arguing that Combs used his business enterprises to facilitate and cover up alleged criminal activities.In response, Combs has hired Stefan Cassella, former deputy chief of the Justice Department's Asset Forfeiture and Money Laundering Section, to fight these forfeiture attempts. Cassella has stated that the government is taking an "aggressive approach" in seizing as many of Combs's assets as possible.Among the assets at risk are Combs's $48 million Miami Beach home on Star Island, which was raided last year, and his $25 million Gulfstream Aerospace G550 private jet, which he has reportedly been renting out while awaiting trial.Prior to these legal troubles, Combs had built an impressive business portfolio. His partnership with Diageo for Ciroc vodka and DeLeon tequila had been particularly lucrative, reportedly generating nearly $1 billion in revenue since 2007. However, his Combs Global empire, which includes ventures in fashion, cannabis, and digital marketplaces, now faces an uncertain future.In 2021, Combs bought back his Sean John clothing brand for $7.5 million but hasn't developed it significantly since. Last year, he attempted to enter the cannabis industry with a venture valued at up to $185 million that would have created the country's largest Black-owned and licensed cannabis company.Throughout this legal battle, Combs has maintained his innocence and pleaded not guilty to all charges. The outcome of this trial will likely determine whether the man who rose from Harlem to become a symbol of Black entrepreneurship will retain the empire he spent decades building.

Sean Combs, known to listeners as Puffy or P Diddy, remains one of hip-hop's most influential figures but is currently at the center of a high-profile federal trial in New York. Combs, 55, faces charges including sex trafficking, racketeering, and several related offenses. Prosecutors allege he led a criminal operation dating back to 2004, involving associates and employees in activities such as sex trafficking, forced labor, bribery, and obstruction of justice. Jury selection began in early May 2025, and the trial has featured emotional testimony, including from a former assistant named Mia, whose cross-examination drew considerable public attention. Combs has pleaded not guilty and declined a plea deal before the trial began. He has been held without bail since his arrest in September 2024. There is growing speculation on social media about whether a presidential pardon could come into play if he is found guilty, but much depends on the final outcome of the ongoing proceedings, expected to continue for several more weeks according to CBS News and ABC News coverage.Despite these legal troubles, Combs' business legacy is significant. As reported by Radio Guide FM, his net worth in 2025 remains around the $1 billion mark, a testament to decades of success in music, fashion, spirits, and media. His partnership with Diageo for Ciroc vodka and DeLeon tequila has generated nearly $1 billion in revenue since 2007, underpinning the wider Combs Global portfolio. According to Trapital, Ciroc was the engine that powered his broader business ambitions.Combs has also made notable tech investments, including as an advisor and investor in Proto, a holographic communications startup known for beaming digital likenesses of celebrities. He launched Empower Global, a digital marketplace to support Black-owned businesses, reflecting his ongoing commitment to entrepreneurship and empowerment. As highlighted by Cybernews and Revolt TV, these ventures position him as a business innovator even as his reputation faces unprecedented legal challenges.This latest chapter marks a stark contrast to Diddy's earlier image as a cultural icon and business pioneer. The hip-hop community and the business world are watching closely as the trial unfolds, potentially reshaping both his legacy and impact on the industries he helped shape.

Sean "Diddy" Combs's high-profile trial on sex trafficking charges continues to unfold in Manhattan, with his defense team recently concluding cross-examination of his ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura. This marks the end of the trial's first week, which has featured explosive testimony.Ventura, who testified for four days, broke down as her testimony concluded on May 16. Following her testimony, she and her husband Alex Fine released a statement through their attorney.The prosecution has begun calling additional witnesses, including Dawn Richard of Danity Kane, who testified about seeing Cassie being "attacked" by a "screaming, belligerent" Combs. A special agent also took the stand, presenting evidence about items found in Combs's hotel room at the time of his arrest, including drugs and baby oil.Prosecutors allege that behind Combs's public persona as a charismatic hip-hop mogul, he forced women into drug-fueled sexual encounters with male escorts, which he called "freak-offs," and then blackmailed them with recordings. Evidence presented includes a black fanny pack containing $9,000 in cash that was seized as potential evidence of criminal activity.Combs faces charges of sex trafficking by force, transportation to engage in prostitution, and racketeering conspiracy. The latest superseding indictment from April 2025 added additional charges, including allegations that he kidnapped a female victim and dangled another over an apartment balcony.Combs has pleaded not guilty to all charges, with his defense team arguing that all sexual encounters were consensual. His attorney has stated that Combs "vehemently denies the accusations" and "looks forward to his day in court."Before these legal troubles, Combs had built a billion-dollar empire spanning music, fashion, beverages, and media. Starting as an intern at Uptown Records in the early 1990s, he pioneered the model of artist-entrepreneurs, becoming one of hip-hop's first billionaires through ventures like Bad Boy Records, Sean John clothing, and a lucrative partnership with Diageo for Ciroc vodka and DeLeon tequila.The trial continues next week as more witnesses are expected to testify.

In a major development, the sex trafficking trial of hip-hop mogul Sean "Diddy" Combs is set to begin in New York City next week. Combs has remained in custody since his arrest in September 2024, having pleaded not guilty to all charges. This trial comes as a significant fall from grace for the music industry titan who was once celebrated for his influential career.Combs' legal troubles began escalating in November 2023 when his ex-partner, singer Cassie Ventura, filed a civil lawsuit alleging he trafficked, raped, and violently beat her throughout their relationship spanning over a decade. Although Combs denied these allegations, the lawsuit was settled out of court just one day after filing, and his reputation never recovered.Prior to these serious legal issues, Combs had built an estimated $1 billion empire through diverse business ventures. His journey from Harlem to hip-hop billionaire included founding Bad Boy Records in the 1990s, launching the careers of notable artists like The Notorious B.I.G. and Faith Evans. Beyond music, Combs expanded into fashion, beverages, media, and cannabis.His partnership with Diageo for Ciroc vodka and De Leon tequila was particularly lucrative, reportedly earning him nearly $1 billion in revenue since 2007. However, this partnership ended in June 2023. Combs' business portfolio under Combs Enterprises also included restaurants, clothing lines like Enyce, and investments in Revolt TV and the athlete-focused beverage Aquahydrate.In 2023, Combs launched Empower Global, a digital marketplace for Black-owned businesses, demonstrating his continued entrepreneurial efforts despite mounting legal challenges.As the music industry closely watches this trial, it marks a dramatic contrast to the celebrations Combs received just a few years ago, including a lifetime achievement award from BET in 2022 and the key to New York City in 2023. Whatever the outcome, this trial represents a pivotal moment for the once-celebrated hip-hop mogul and his extensive business empire.
We start with the heat of the moment—Ryan Coogler's latest film Sinners, already generating serious buzz—and then rewind to where it all began with his deeply affecting debut, Fruitvale Station. Special guest Josh Deleon joins us for the ride, adding sharp takes and good company. Both films showcase the dynamic power of Michael B. Jordan, and we explore how Coogler's voice has evolved from intimate storytelling to epic, emotionally charged cinema. We're pairing these films with two bold brews: the citrus punch of Austin Beerworks's Bloodwork Orange IPA and our first taste of Surly Brewing, courtesy of their tropical Mango Axe Man. Great films, great beer—what more do you need?
Sean Combs, known worldwide as Puffy, P Diddy, or simply Diddy, is currently embroiled in one of the highest-profile legal battles in the entertainment industry. Seven months after his high-profile arrest in September 2024 following federal raids on two of his properties, Combs has remained in detention in New York, having been refused bail. The trial, which is set to begin on May 5, 2025, will address a third superseding federal indictment that includes five felony charges: racketeering conspiracy, two counts of sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion, and two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution. Combs has pleaded not guilty, asserting that all of his sexual relationships were consensual and strenuously denying any wrongdoing. His defense team has argued he was targeted due to racial bias and bad faith by prosecutors.Despite these serious criminal allegations and several civil lawsuits, Combs has experienced mixed outcomes in court. Some civil suits, including a highly publicized case that also named Jay-Z, were dismissed, and a federal judge recently threw out multiple charges in a $30 million lawsuit brought by a music producer. However, the looming criminal trial presents the most significant threat yet to his career and legacy. Beyond the courtroom, the fallout has been profound for Diddy's business empire. For years, Combs' fortune was powered by a unique partnership with Diageo for Ciroc vodka and DeLeon tequila, which reportedly earned him nearly $1 billion in revenue. He expanded his influence with ventures like Bad Boy Records, Sean John clothing, and Revolt TV, and by 2025, estimates placed his net worth near $1 billion. But as his legal woes intensified, major deals have dissolved—Ciroc's parent company Diageo ended their partnership with Combs in 2023 after a public dispute over business commitments.Combs remains a towering, if embattled, figure in hip-hop and Black entrepreneurship. The approaching trial, set against the backdrop of his declining business relationships and mounting legal costs, represents a pivotal moment for the mogul. Listeners following this story are witnessing a saga that could reshape the legacy of one of music's most influential and controversial figures.

For our final episode of Season 8, we are thrilled to welcome Jason De Leon, anthropologist, researcher and professor at UCLA, and award-winning author. Jason's recent book, “Soldiers and Kings: Survival and Hope in the World of Human Smuggling” won the 2024 National Book Award for Nonfiction. Jason talks about how conversations with migrants at archaeological digs in central Mexico led to his interest in immigration. He shares stories of people that have stuck with him over the years, including a young man from Ecuador who went missing in the desert along the US-Mexico border. He describes the history of “prevention through deterrence,” a US border policy that weaponizes the desert to inflict harm on migrants in order to try to deter entry. Jason shares how his latest book, “Soldiers and Kings,” came about by just being present to smugglers in Mexico and listening to them as they shared their stories. Brian and Joe also share stories of being present to people in moments of need. Joe shares the story of Joana, who was stuck in the shelter after legal entry to the US was shut off to vulnerable migrants. As she walked off from the Mass in tears one day, Joe shares the frustration of being unable to help, but the gift that comes from just being present and holding someone as they cry. Brian shares the story of Laura, a young woman from Honduras who has been separated from her mom who has been living in the US for over twenty years. Unable to legally enter, Laura continues to live at the local shelter in northern Mexico, and loves preparing desserts to share. Her mom is undocumented in the US, and lives in fear of deportation after decades of establishing her life here. The situation of Laura and her mom reflects the reality we encounter as Season 8 comes to a close. Many vulnerable migrants remain stuck at the border, unable to return home and with no legal pathway of entry. And millions of migrants across the US live in fear of imprisonment and deportation, and continue to be criminalized, often just for being migrants.Thanks for joining us for this season, and blessings on your Holy Week.

Send us a textJoan DeLeon's path to becoming one of trail running's most exciting talents defies conventional narratives. From the concrete streets of Waco, Texas, to stunning the mountain running world by beating Joe Gray at A-Basin, his journey combines raw talent with refreshing authenticity.Growing up without mountains or trails, DeLeon's running foundation came through summer track programs where Baylor University athletes served as mentors. This early exposure to quality coaching propelled him to collegiate success, but his introduction to mountain running came almost by accident when college teammate Cade Michael convinced him to visit Colorado's Gunnison Valley after graduation.What began as a temporary stay evolved into five transformative years in one of America's mountain running epicenters. DeLeon speaks candidly about discovering a completely different relationship with running in the mountains – one characterized by freedom and exploration rather than oval tracks. This new environment rekindled his love for the sport after collegiate burnout.The trail running community embraced DeLeon after his breakthrough performance at Cirque Series A-Basin, rallying through a GoFundMe to send him to Golden Trail Series races. This experience opened his eyes to the global mountain running scene, inspiring a more structured approach to training under the guidance of the Hemmings coaching team and leading to his new partnership with Satisfy Running.Looking toward 2025, DeLeon balances ambitious competitive goals—including the US Mountain Running Championships at Sunapee—with genuine appreciation for the journey. His competitive philosophy combines fierce determination with perspective: "We're all friends, but when we step on the line, my job is to destroy you."Ready to witness the next chapter in this remarkable story?

In November 2004, Tom and Jackie Hawks, an Arizona couple, were killed in a well-thought-out, diabolical plot. Former child actor Skylar Deleon feigned interest in buying the couple's yacht. During the cruise, the Hawks were forced to sign over ownership of their yacht and power of attorney for their bank accounts. Accomplices Alonso Machain (a prison guard) and John Fitzgerald Kennedy (a Los Angeles gang member), helped Deleon kill the couple during a test cruise by tying them to an anchor and throwing them overboard from the yacht off Southern California. “48 Hours" correspondent Maureen Maher reports.

We consider before moving on to try to locate any actual legal basis in the Georgia Court of Appeals decision removing Fulton County DA Fani Willis from the prosecution of Donald Trump and his alleged conspirators in Georgia.
