Latest Allegations Against Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs: A Detailed Overview
Rapper and music mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs is facing multiple civil lawsuits accusing him of sex trafficking, sexual abuse, and rape. The allegations against Combs, formerly known as Puff Daddy and P. Diddy, date back to the 1990s when he founded his record label, Bad Boy Records.
The lawsuits began in November 2023 when singer and dancer Cassie Ventura, Combs’ former partner, filed a lawsuit alleging years of abuse. Ventura claimed she was trafficked, raped, and beaten by Combs on multiple occasions over a 10-year period. Surveillance footage from a hotel in Los Angeles in March 2016 showed Combs chasing Ventura down a hallway and attacking her, corroborating parts of her complaint.
Since then, more women have come forward with lawsuits alleging sexual assault by Combs. Producer Rodney “Lil Rod” Jones filed a lawsuit in February 2024, claiming he was subjected to unwanted advances by Combs’ associates and forced to engage in relations with sex workers hired by Combs. The lawsuit also alleges that Combs hosted “sex-trafficking parties” with underage women and illegal drugs.
Other accusers, including Joie Dickerson-Neal and Crystal McKinney, have also come forward with allegations of sexual assault and rape against Combs. Combs has denied all the accusations and vowed to fight for his name, family, and the truth. His attorneys have called the allegations “baseless” and “sickening.”
Despite the denials, the lawsuits against Combs have shed light on a dark side of the music industry, with survivors coming forward to seek justice through civil litigation. The allegations against Combs have sparked a conversation about accountability and the treatment of women in the entertainment industry.
As the legal battles continue, the public awaits the outcome of these lawsuits and the impact they may have on Combs’ career and reputation. Stay tuned for more updates on this developing story.
