In mid-September, the entertainment industry was “shaken” by the news that Hip-hop mogul Diddy was arrested on charges of sex trafficking, rape, and extortion. To date, Sean “Diddy” Combs has been accused of sexual abuse by more than 100 people, including many children as young as 9 years old. When the music mogul’s crimes were exposed, the public began to “monitor” the relationships surrounding him.
