'Takedown' host Chris Hansen argued Sean 'Diddy' Combs' connections to the rich and powerful were unlikely to protect him from federal charges as allegations against the hip hop mogul continue to pile up. Combs' mansions were raided last week after a series of damning civil lawsuits accused him of trafficking sex, guns and drugs and other bad behavior.
The former show host of 'To Catch a Predator' said both Diddy and Epstein appeared to let fame and prestige cloud their judgment. 'These guys get drunk with power, allegedly — Diddy has said that these allegations are false — but they get drunk with power and all of a sudden they lose their balance and what's right and what's wrong, and they're insulated, and they get everybody telling them they're great,' he argued.
It started with civil suits, then HSI got involved,' Hansen remarked. 'These civil suits are just like a silver platter for the feds to take these guys down,' Watters added. Despite the federal investigation, Combs has not been charged with a crime and denied all accusations of wrongdoing.
