Here' some clarification:
Puff has multiple lawsuits filed against him
These court documents are from the one filed by Lil Rod Jenkins, a month ago. They are part of that civil lawsuit. They aren't charging documents for the criminal case, they are a civil lawsuit, just like the one filed by Cassie in November 2023, and the two after that.
The searches were based off a search warrant affidavit in the Southern District of New York. That potential criminal case is a criminal federal case, for sex trafficking. The crime is sex trafficking and sex trafficking conspiracy, by force fraud or coercion.
The key is this, sex trafficking by force, fraud, or coercion
that is how all the indictments of Epistein, Maxwell, Nygard were written. The Kelly and Keith Raniere were handled with a RICO, which is different.
Sex trafficking as written above could be, you (puff) take Cassie from NYC to Miami, for a threesome, and in that time frame, and outside of that time frame, she was threatened, (lets say losing her condo, which Puff pays for) or beaten, (as he is accused of) or defrauded by saying we are not having a threesome, this is for your birthday or whatever, and then she gets to the room and there are male escorts.
or lets say you meet a young woman, or one of your handlers does, and tell her she would be perfect for your new album, fly her to NYC from LA, for a studio session, but when she gets to the studio, everyone starts undressing, and maybe there's a guns there, or whatever. And she is expected to perform sex acts if she wants to be A) flown home or B) paid for her time
both of those could be defintions of sex trafficking by force fraud or coercion. for more reference, check out the Girls Do Porn case. Sex trafficking case. Two people got 14 years and one 20. Boss is going to get life.
