Music mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs has been named in a fourth sexual assault lawsuit. The anonymous plaintiff, referred to as Jane Doe, alleged that Diddy encouraged her to fly to New York City in a private jet when she was 17 years old, where she was subsequently sex-trafficked and gang-raped by him and his colleagues in 2008. Doe is seeking injunctive, declaratory, and monetary relief against Diddy for reportedly violating the Victims of Gender-Motivated Violence Protection Law and Gender Motivated Violence Act.
Diddy’s attorney has denied these “sickening allegations,” stating that he did not do any of the awful things being alleged and is prepared to fight for his name and family. These allegations come after Diddy settled a lawsuit with his ex-girlfriend Cassie, who accused him of rape and repeated physical abuse. Despite settling the lawsuit, Diddy’s attorney emphasized that it was not an admission of wrongdoing and that he denies the claims.
The news of these allegations against Diddy comes in the wake of Hollywood’s sexual misconduct scandals. Multiple women have come forward with similar stories of alleged abuse by Diddy, with each lawsuit being filed under New York’s Adult Survivors Act. The deadline to file a new case expired on November 24, and Diddy vigorously denied each allegation at the time.
This latest lawsuit adds to the mounting allegations against Diddy, as he continues to deny wrongdoing and vows to fight for his name and reputation. If you or someone you know has been sexually assaulted, contact the National Sexual Assault Hotline at 1-800-656-HOPE (4673).
