Now in her thirties, a woman was allegedly sexually assaulted in 2000 by Diddy and one of his accomplices, who would also be a celebrity, during one of these famous “Freak Offs”, drunken parties organized by the 54 year old man. After being drugged without her knowledge, she was allegedly raped in front of another woman well known to the public, according to the lawsuit, including the magazine People got a copy.
A hundred potential victims
According to several charges filed against Sean Combs, the intoxication of vulnerable people was a ploy he commonly employed. Among the new complaints launched on Sunday, two women and a man accused him of the same tactic. The fifth potential victim, a man, accuses Diddy of touching him during a Cîroc Vodka event in Los Angeles.
These plaintiffs are in addition to around a hundred people, no less, who are represented by Me Tony Buzbee and who accuse the Harlem native of sexual misconduct. Well known, this lawyer was able to identify potential victims thanks to the launch of a telephone helpline.
Sean Combs was arrested by federal agents on September 16 and faces racketeering and sex trafficking charges, to which he has pleaded not guilty. His requests for bail, pending his trial scheduled for May 5, 2025, were refused.
From hero to zero
P. Diddy’s legal descent into hell began on November 16, 2023, when his ex-girlfriend, singer Cassie Ventura, took him to court for rape, sex trafficking and physical abuse. The matter was settled amicably behind closed doors the next day, but a surveillance video published by CNN a few months later caused a stir. The rapper issued a public apology after the broadcast of these images, where we see him attacking his ex-girlfriend.
This controversy snowballed and several alleged victims followed in Cassie Ventura’s footsteps to denounce the actions of Sean Combs.
On March 25, agents from the United States Department of Homeland Security searched some of his residences. More than 1,000 bottles of baby oil and lubricant were found by investigators, as well as three automatic rifles.
The defense of Sean Combs, led by Me Marc Agnifilo, called the federal prosecution malicious and continues to maintain his client’s innocence. “In this court, justice will prevail: Mr. Combs has never sexually assaulted anyone, male, female, or minor,” read a statement.
