Sean “Diddy” Combs Faces New Civil Lawsuits Alleging Sexual Assault, Including Minors

Sean “Diddy” Combs is facing seven new civil lawsuits, with two of the plaintiffs alleging that they were minors when they were drugged and sexually assaulted by the music mogul. These recent filings, submitted in federal and state courts in New York, detail allegations of sexual misconduct spanning from 2000 to 2022, further compounding Combs' ongoing legal battles.

One of the lawsuits, filed by a woman identified as Jane Doe, alleges that she was only 13 years old when she was assaulted at an afterparty following the MTV Video Music Awards in 2000. According to the lawsuit, Doe was invited to the party by a limo driver, where she consumed a drink and soon began feeling drowsy. In search of a place to rest, she entered a bedroom. It was then, according to the complaint, that Combs, along with an unnamed male and female celebrity, entered the room.

“You are ready to party!” Combs allegedly said to her, according to the lawsuit. The unnamed male celebrity then allegedly raped Doe while Combs and the female celebrity watched. The lawsuit further alleges that Combs then raped her as well.

When asked for comment on these new allegations, Combs’ representatives pointed to a prior statement from his legal team denying all accusations. “Mr. Combs and his legal team have full confidence in the facts, their legal defenses, and the integrity of the judicial process,” the statement read. “In court, the truth will prevail: Mr. Combs has never sexually assaulted anyone — adult or minor, man or woman.”

The new lawsuits, five of which were filed in federal court and two in New York Superior Court, accuse Combs of a range of offenses, including rape, sexual assault, sexual harassment, battery, and false imprisonment. The plaintiffs allege that these incidents occurred during parties hosted by Combs in New York, Los Angeles, and Las Vegas over the past two decades. The plaintiffs include three women and four men, all of whom claim that they were drugged before the alleged assaults took place.

Another accuser, identified as John Doe, claims that he was 17 years old in 2022 when he was drugged and sexually assaulted by Combs. The lawsuit states that Combs offered the young aspiring artist a drink and assured him that he could help launch his music career. John Doe alleges that after consuming the drink, he was assaulted.

These lawsuits follow a series of legal actions brought against Combs last week by Houston-based attorney Tony Buzbee and co-counsel Andrew Van Arsdale, who now represent more than 120 individuals accusing the music producer of abuse. The two lawyers have stated that many of their clients were minors at the time of the alleged assaults.

Federal prosecutors have also accused Combs of running a “criminal enterprise” through his business ventures, alleging that he engaged in sex trafficking, forced labor, and years of physical abuse. Combs has pleaded not guilty to federal charges of sex trafficking and racketeering and is currently being held in custody in New York. His trial is scheduled to begin in May 2025.

In response to the growing number of lawsuits and allegations, Combs’ legal team has requested a gag order from the court to prevent potential witnesses and their lawyers from making public statements. “This Court should exercise its discretion in issuing an order requiring all potential witnesses and their counsel to refrain from making extrajudicial statements that have a substantial likelihood to interfere with Mr. Combs’s trial or otherwise prejudice the due administration of justice,” the motion read.

Since November 2023, more than 25 civil lawsuits have been filed against Combs, alleging sexual misconduct and assault. The first lawsuit, filed by his former girlfriend Cassie Ventura, was settled within a day, but many of the remaining cases are still active. Federal prosecutors have indicated that their investigation is ongoing, and additional charges or defendants may be added in the coming months.
