Social media sleuths uncover that Kobe Bryant attended a Diddy party one month before his helicopter crash

An Instagram post has surfaced on the internet that allegedly shows Los Angeles Lakers legend Kobe Bryant attending a Diddy party only a month before the former lost his life in a tragic helicopter accident.

Bryant was celebrating the rapper’s 50th birthday. Diddy turned 50 years old back in November of 2019, but it seems like he waited until the following month to celebrate his birthday in Beverley Hills, Calif.

Fast forward several years past his 50th birthday celebration, and the artist finds himself in a significant amount of legal trouble. He is in jail as of this writing and is facing sex trafficking and racketeering charges. Diddy was arrested in Manhattan, N.Y. earlier in the month of September after he was indicted by a grand jury.

A federal court — located in the New York City — revealed his charges in question and claimed that Diddy “abused, threatened, and coerced women and others around him to fulfill sexual desires, protect his reputation, and conceal his conduct,” according to Forbes.

A number of disturbing allegations have been brought forth against Diddy of late. Earlier this week, a woman by the name of Thalia Graves filed a lawsuit in the state of New York that alleges she was offered a glass of wine from Diddy and another man in 2001 — when she was 25 years old — before she was subsequently raped by the two with her hands tied up behind her back.

As aforementioned, Bryant passed away far before Diddy became knee-deep in problems with the law. He died on Jan. 26, 2020 after a helicopter he was riding crashed in Calabasas, Calif. He was just 41 years old at the time of the accident, and tragically, his daughter died in the same crash at just 13 years old.

It remains to be seen what will become of Diddy in light of the allegations against him, but if he is proven guilty, folks may start to question Bryant’s decision to attend one of his parties not long before he died.
