Rapper and music executive Sean “Diddy” Combs is now facing a fresh round of legal troubles as six new lawsuits alleging sexual assault have been filed against him. The cases, submitted anonymously under the names “Jane Doe” and “John Doe,” include shocking claims involving both men and women, as well as a minor. These accusations span incidents dating back to 1995 and as recent as 2021.

Among the most troubling allegations is one from a man who claims he was only 16 years old when he was assaulted. The lawsuit alleges that Combs told the teenager that the assault was a “rite of passage” for entering the music industry. This particular accusation marks the first time that Combs has been accused of an assault involving a minor.

 

Other lawsuits detail similar allegations. One woman accuses Combs of raping her at a party in 1995 after she was violently struck and left unable to defend herself. Another male accuser alleges that he was flown to a party in 2021, drugged, and then sexually assaulted. Half of the accusers in these lawsuits claim they were drugged prior to the assaults.

Attorney Tony Busby, representing the six accusers, previously announced that he was preparing lawsuits for over 120 clients alleging similar misconduct. These six cases are the first to emerge, with the attorney linking the assaults to high-profile events such as Combs’ infamous “White Parties.” He claims that many of the victims were drugged and sexually assaulted at these gatherings, which were common in the music industry.

 

Combs and his legal team have categorically denied all allegations. In a statement, his attorneys dismissed the lawsuits as attempts to gain publicity and asserted that Combs “has never sexually assaulted anyone,” further stating that they have full confidence in the judicial process.

 

Legal analysts suggest that these new claims could be added to ongoing legal actions against Combs. Prosecutors are expected to investigate the credibility of the accusers, especially given the severity of the allegations, including the involvement of a minor. Combs’ trial is scheduled for May of next year, and legal experts are watching closely to see if additional charges will be brought before then.

 

This latest development adds more complexity to an already controversial case, and the potential for new allegations is likely to make headlines as the case progresses.
