Sean 'Diddy' Combs reportedly got away with heinous crimes for a long time because of the power he held in the industry.
An insider source shared that people are still scared of him even when the accused rapper is currently serving time behind bars at the New York detention centre.
"He's so powerful. Everyone was afraid to cross him. Even though he's behind bars now, he's still so powerful. We all knew it even back then," the insider told People Magazine.
They added, "Everyone always chalked it up to being a creative genius when it came to his obsession with controlling things."
Sean 'Diddy' Combs was arrested last month on the charges of sexual abuse, sex trafficking, and engagement in prostitution.
The 54-year-old musician has been denied bail twice, while he pleaded not guilty to the charges.
"He's incredibly smart," continued the insider, adding, "He knows a lot of people, and he's helped a lot of people — so a lot of people owe him. He knows that."
They alarmingly remarked that the Last Night rapper "is capable of a lot — much more than people think, even now."
Since the arrest, 120 victims have come forward with allegations against the Bad Boy Records founder, 25 of whom were minors at the time of alleged abuse.
Texan Attorney, Tony Buzbee, is set to represent the victims against Diddy and has encouraged more potential victims to speak out.
Meanwhile, Sean 'Diddy’ Combs' lawyers have denied all the accusations as he awaits trial.
