In this episode, we're picking right back up where we left off with Rodney Jones, second
0:54
amended complaint against Diddy, 375.
0:59
Upon information and belief, the reason that defendant Lucian Charles Grange, in his
1:03
capacity as CEO of UMG Motown Records and Universal Music Group, ignored the numerous red flags
1:10
about Mr. Combs, was to receive financial benefits from Mr. Combs and his sex trafficking
1:17
Defendant Lucian Charles Grange and his capacity as CEO of UMG Motown Records and Universal
1:23
Music Group knew that it would gain far from routine financial benefits by ignoring the
1:29
red flags associated with Mr. Combs and by participating in his sex trafficking venture.
1:35
A, upon information and belief among the concrete steps that defendant Lucian Charles Grange
1:41
and his capacity as CEO of UMG Motown Records and Universal Music Group took to aid and
1:47
participate in the Combs sex trafficking venture were opening numerous lines of finance
1:52
for Mr. Combs production of the love album.
1:55
By opening these unchecked lines of finance, defendant Lucian Charles Grange and his capacity
2:00
as CEO of UMG Motown Records and Universal Music Group received many benefits from participating
2:08
in Mr. Combs venture.
2:10
Through their general business partnership agreement with defendant Sean Combs and love
2:14
records incorporated, they adopted by association the intentional acts of their general business
2:20
partner Sean Combs and love records incorporated as affirmative conduct that caused defendant
2:25
Lucian Charles Grange and his capacity as CEO of UMG Motown Records and Universal Music
2:31
Group to receive those benefits.
2:34
B, upon information and belief among the concrete steps that defendant Lucian Charles Grange
2:39
and his capacity as CEO of UMG Motown Records and Universal Music Group took to aid the
2:46
Combs sex trafficking venture between about 2003 to 2005, 2009 to 2015 and 2022 and continuing
2:56
through about November 2023, defendant Lucian Charles Grange and his capacity as CEO of
3:02
UMG Motown Records and Universal Music Group concealed its delivery of vast sums of financing
3:08
likely millions of dollars to Mr. Combs and his associates to benefit from the Combs
3:14
sex trafficking venture, defendant Lucian Charles Grange and his capacity as CEO of UMG Motown
3:20
Records and Universal Music Group will fully fail to do their due diligence and ensure that
3:26
their general business partners, defendant Sean Combs and love records, incorporated,
3:31
accurately accounted for all of the financing that they received as it relates to the establishment
3:37
of love records incorporated and distribution of the love album by timely filing the required
3:43
tax disclosures surrounding the funding of the sex trafficking parties with the federal
3:49
government because doing so would impair all its ability to profit from the sex trafficking
3:53
venture due to their status as a general business partner of defendant Combs and love records
3:58
incorporated, defendant Lucian Charles Grange and his capacity as CEO of UMG Motown Records
4:05
and Universal Music Group were equally liable for the concealment of the financial transactions
4:11
caused it to receive financial benefits through the continuation of the Combs sex trafficking
4:16
venture. See, upon information and belief, among the concrete steps that defendant Lucian
4:22
Charles Grange took in his capacity as CEO of UMG Motown Records and Universal Music Group
4:29
took to aid the Combs sex trafficking venture was its failure to ensure that their general
4:34
business partner Sean Combs and love records incorporated followed AML requirements.
4:40
This failure was not just passive facilitation but a deliberate omission by defendant Lucian
4:46
Charles Grange and his capacity as CEO of UMG Motown Records and Universal Music Group.
4:53
This omission was a specific act of concealment, which allowed Combs to continue funding
4:58
as sex trafficking venture through suspicious transactions that would have otherwise been
5:03
prevented. Combs paid for his sex workers through cash payments and wire transfers.
5:10
Upon information and belief by taking the concrete steps outlined above,
5:14
along with the others alleged in this complaint, defendant Lucian Charles Grange and his capacity
5:19
as CEO of UMG Motown Records and Universal Music Group knowingly participated in sex trafficking
5:26
and furthered the Combs sex trafficking venture. The concrete steps above constituted taking part
5:33
in the sex trafficking venture and were necessary for its success.
5:37
The concrete steps above constituted active engagement by defendant Lucian Charles Grange
5:43
and his capacity as CEO of UMG Motown Records and Universal Music Group in Combs sex trafficking
5:50
venture. See upon information and belief defendant Lucian Charles Grange and his capacity of CEO
5:57
of UMG Motown Records and Universal Music Group knowingly and intentionally benefited financially
6:03
from and received value for its participation in the sex trafficking venture in which Mr. Combs
6:10
with defendant Lucian Charles Grange and his capacity as CEO of UMG Motown Records and Universal
6:17
Music Group's knowledge or their reckless disregard of the fact that Combs would use means of force,
6:22
threats of force, fraud, coercion and a combination of such means to cause plaintiff Jones as well as
6:28
others, some of whom were under the age of 17 to engage in commercial sex acts. F
6:34
upon information and belief defendant Lucian Charles Grange and his capacity as CEO of UMG Motown
6:41
Records and Universal Music Group knew through years of lawsuits, hush money settlements
6:47
and notice that was provided by Miss Cassie Ventura at the beginning of 2023 that Mr. Combs
6:52
was engaging in sex trafficking and that defendant Lucian Charles Grange and his capacity as CEO of UMG
7:00
Motown Records and Universal Music Group was participating in a particular sex trafficking
7:05
venture i.e the coercive Combs sex trafficking venture outlined above through their general
7:11
business partnership deal with defendant Sean Combs and love records incorporated defendant Lucian
7:17
Charles Grange and his capacity as CEO of UMG Motown Records and Universal Music Group's knowledge
7:23
went far beyond having an abstract awareness of sex trafficking in general. Indeed defendant Lucian
7:30
Charles Grange and his capacity as CEO of UMG Motown Records and Universal Music Group's representatives
7:37
were present at Chalice recording studios and in Mr. Combs Miami and Los Angeles homes while he
7:44
was actively engaging in acts enumerated in this pleading and the large sum of financing that
7:50
defendant Lucian Charles Grange and his capacity as CEO of UMG Motown Records and Universal Music Group
7:57
gave him access to thus defendant Lucian Charles Grange and his capacity as CEO of UMG Motown Records
8:05
and Universal Music Group did not simply fail to adequately detect signs of Combs sex trafficking,
8:10
it did not detect multiple signs of Combs coercive sex trafficking venture and continued to
8:16
participate in the venture defendant Lucian Charles Grange and his capacity as CEO of UMG Motown
8:23
Records and Universal Music Group knew or should have known that the venture was ongoing which
8:29
with why Combs required vast sums of financing. Gee upon information and belief defendant Lucian
8:36
Charles Grange and his capacity as CEO of UMG Motown Records and Universal Music Group's actions
8:42
extend well beyond the situation of failing to train themselves and set their staff about
8:48
recognizing the warning signs of sex trafficking. Defendant Lucian Charles Grange in his capacity as
8:54
CEO of UMG Motown Records and Universal Music Group's employees did recognize the signs of
9:00
Combs sex trafficking. Upon information and belief indeed defendant Lucian Charles Grange and his
9:06
capacity as CEO of UMG Motown Records and Universal Music Group's employees knew about Combs sex
9:13
trafficking venture but defendant Lucian Charles Grange in his capacity as CEO of UMG Motown Records
9:20
and Universal Music Group decided to continue facilitating the Combs sex trafficking venture
9:26
rather than ending its participation in the venture. H upon information and belief among the signs
9:33
that defendants Lucian Charles Grange and his capacity as CEO of UMG Motown Records and Universal
9:40
Music Group was facilitating Combs sex trafficking venture where those facts that came to the attention
9:46
of defendant Lucian Charles Grange and his capacity as CEO of UMG Motown Records and Universal
9:53
Music Group from the reporting of Cassie Ventura mentioned the buff. You're having a good time.

12:06
Universal Music Group was facilitating comb sex trafficking venture where those facts that came
12:12
to the attention of defendant Lucian Charles Grange and his capacity as CEO of UMG records
12:18
and Universal Music Group were those facts that came to its attention through its complaints
12:23
file by Cassie Ventura of comb sex trafficking because of those complaints defendant Lucian
12:29
Charles Grange and his capacity as CEO of UMG, Motown Records and Universal Music Group
12:36
knew to a certainty that combs was engaged in sex trafficking. Jay upon information and belief
12:42
defendant Lucian Charles Grange and his capacity as CEO of UMG Motown Records and Universal Music Group
12:50
knew the names of many of comb sex trafficking freak off participants, young Miami,
12:54
Daphne Joy, Stevie J and Jade. Okay upon information and belief defendant Lucian Charles Grange
13:02
and his capacity as CEO of UMG Motown Records and Universal Music Group helped to conceal the names
13:09
of combs victims from the public and from law enforcement and prosecuting agencies by helping
13:14
to conceal the existence of the sex trafficking venture. Among the ways in which defendant Lucian
13:21
Charles Grange and his capacity as CEO of UMG Motown Records and Universal Music Group
13:27
helped to conceal the venture's existence was by failing to properly monitor or audit
13:32
chong combs and love records incorporated to ensure that the finances they provided were being
13:37
used in a manner outlined in the Habtomerium Declaration as well as ensuring that the proper
13:43
accounting and tax reporting was made to the federal government. Additionally they knew or
13:49
should have known that the defendant combs employed and empowered Fahim Muhammad to handle law
13:54
enforcement and defendant quorum to compensate the sex workers.
13:59
I, upon information and belief defendant Lucian Charles Grange and his capacity as CEO of UMG
14:05
Motown Records and Universal Music Group's concealment including failing to provide enhanced
14:11
monitoring that is normally required in general business partnership agreements where one partner
14:16
was providing the financing of the partnership. Defendant Lucian Charles Grange and his capacity
14:22
as CEO of UMG Motown Records and Universal Music Group felt to implement enhanced monitoring
14:29
of Mr. Combs to ensure that the finances they provided were being used for the purpose identified
14:35
in Miss Habtomerium's Declaration. Upon information and belief they felt to do this specifically
14:42
to help conceal combs ongoing sex trafficking. Defendant Lucian Charles Grange and his capacity as
14:48
CEO of UMG Motown Records and Universal Music Group knew that if it implemented its enhanced
14:55
monitoring it would have to stop providing combs with the financing he needed to run his sex
15:00
trafficking venture. M upon information and belief defendant Lucian Charles Grange and his
15:06
capacity as CEO of UMG Motown Records and Universal Music Group's concealment included failing to ensure
15:14
that their general business partners, Sean Combs and Love Records Incorporated,
15:18
properly reported their financial support of Mr. Combs to federal government for tax purposes.
15:24
This includes reporting all payments or wire transfers sent to Kuresha, Romeka Brownlee,
15:30
Jade Raimi, and Daphne Joyce or Vantes, Narvaya's. Upon information and belief defendant Lucian
15:37
Charles Grange and his capacity as CEO of UMG Motown Records and Universal Music Group had
15:43
constructive knowledge of the combs sex trafficking venture because of specific acts by Mr. Combs
15:49
that put it on notice of a particular and ongoing sex trafficking venture.
15:55
Among the specific acts were Combs use of vast sums of financing and the club love parties
16:00
that representatives of UMG periodically attended. Defendant Combs had drugs and sex workers present
16:07
in circumstances that should have prompted defendant Lucian Charles Grange and his capacity as CEO
16:13
of UMG Motown Records and Universal Music Group and its employees to raise questions about combs
16:19
sex trafficking and or his use of the financing provided to him by defendant Lucian Charles Grange
16:26
in his capacity as CEO of UMG Motown Records and Universal Music Group.
