1🧵Last month the judge presiding over Combs’ case denied bail for the 3rd time. For now, Sean Combs remains incarcerated at the infamous Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn sharing a cell w/ none other than finance extortionist Sam Bankman-Fried.
The MDC has notably housed, Ghislaine Maxwell, R.Kelly, 6ix9ine, and sex cult leader Keith Raniere among others.
2🧵While most of the world is asking "Diddy do it?" we'll look into identifying what helped shape an altar boy into a demon. What did he go through?
3🧵Diddy's early life made him a very vulnerable young boy. His father, Melvin Combs, was shot dead in 1971 when Sean was just 5 years old. In the care of his widowed Catholic mother, Sean became an alter boy.
Determined to create a stable environment, Janice enrolled Sean in Mount Saint Michael Academy, an all-boys Catholic school in the Bronx, where he graduated in 1987
4🧵Sean's nickname "Puff" although a common pejorative in the UK for a homosexual, in the case of Mr. Combs the name originated from his years attending Mt. Saint Michael reportedly because Combs’ tendency to "huff & puff" when he was angry.
Six years after P. Diddy graduated from St.Michael he had already founded his own record label, Bad Boy Records in 1993.
Just 4 years later Combs released his debut album “No Way Out” with the top single “Can’t Nobody Hold me Down” topping the Billboard Hot 100.
5🧵Combs’ alma-mater was later revealed to have been the site of significant child sex abuse during Diddy's time there. Investigations exposed child sex abuse cases involving faculty members.
Principal Brother Timothy Brady who served at the school from 1980- til the end of the 1987 school year & was accused of abusing three boys in 1987—Combs’ graduating year—and Brady was subsequently arrested in 1988.
Bernard Lynch, the campus chaplain, faced multiple allegations over several decades, including a 1998 indictment and a 2019 accusation.
Although acquitted in 1998, Lynch fled to Ireland, where he controversially advocated for LGBTQ+ clergy and married a man.
6🧵Lynch’s defense—citing repressed sexuality from early seminary education led to clergy sleeping with the youth but that he didn't consider that pedophilia is nothing more than grotesque attempt to justify abuse.
Lynch's recent 2024 arrest on charges of sex trafficking and racketeering highlights systemic failures that allowed such predators like him to persist.
7🧵Examining peculiarities in Diddy's life:
🔻Names his record label "Bad Boy" w/ a logo of an infant in boots. 🤔
🔻 First album he titled "No Way Out" w/ the hit song "Can't Nobody Hold me Down" 🤔
🔻Named himself "P.Diddy" [no relation to his name], "Puffy" [slag for 🌈 + name he got at Mt.St Michael] "Brother Love" [the clergy at his school weren't priests which are 'father's' rather they were Marist "brothers"]🤔
🔻Combs was young & vulnerable w/o a father & attended a school during the same years that the principal and chaplain of the school were sexually abusing young boys. 🤔
🔻One of the clergyman abusers had prior to working at the school spent time in Africa counseling young boys.
8🧵I'm not claiming that Combs was sexually abused as a child, I am however looking at circumstantial evidence and evaluating patterns .
There are some irrefutable facts about child sex abuse & particularily how there are consistent & significant correlations between Child Sex Abuse and various forms of sexual deviancy in adulthood.
For male sex offenders in particular, research has steadily shown that childhood sex abuse was a significant predictor of sexual deviancy.
9🧵Some statistics on Child Sex Abuse that paint a dark picture:
📈CSA survivors tend to become sexually active at younger ages & have higher rates of exchanging sex for money or drugs.
📈Up to 75% of serial rapists report being sexually abused as children.
📈The average age range of convicted child sexual abusers is 23-46 years old. Both Brother Brady and Brother Lynch were 41 at the time of the indictments.
📈Non-incestuous pedophiles who molest boys typically have over 100 victims
📈81% of victims abused by Catholic clergy between 1950 and 2002 were male
📈1 in 6 boys are sexually abused before 18. Only 1 in 10 kids ever report it w/ boys under reporting at a much higher rate.
📈Individuals with a history of CSA [child sex abuse] were 3.4X more likely to engage in sexual versus non-sexual offending.
📈50% of CSA offenders were someone that the child knew and trusted.
🚨This investigation doesn’t mean in anyway to degrade the severity of Diddy’s crimes, but like my recent report into the Biden Family & the abuses at Archmere Academy, this report is aimed to highlight the often kept quiet reality of the exponential and infectious growth of child sex abuse.
This is why the strictest punishments must be given for those who commit these heinous crimes. Child sex abuse has an increased likelihood of BREEDING future child sex abusers & sexual deviants. 🚨
