The highly publicised trial of Sean "Diddy" Combs for trafficking and racketeering began on May 12. The fallout might, surprisingly, elevate more well-known names.
A previously deleted party photo from Diddy's wild 2014 night in Ibiza has resurfaced online ten years after he attempted to remove it from the Internet, just as he faces some of the most serious charges of his life.
The throwback entails a glittering A-list guest list, but its reemergence couldn't come at a worse time for the embattled music mogul.
As serious allegations of trafficking and coercion emerge, the resurfaced image provides a stark contrast to the dark legal storm he faces.
