The music mogul is facing new allegations related to his infamous “White Parties,” a Manhattan hotel, and a Macy’s stockroom. According to the Daily Beast, lawyers for the sexual assault victims filed six more lawsuits against Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs on Monday.
The complaints filed on Monday involve allegations of victims who were assaulted in New York, where Diddy established his East Coast hip-hop empire.The victims will remain unidentified and unnamed in the lawsuits and will be referred to as John Doe and Jane Doe.
The six victims are represented by Texas-based attorney Tony Buzbee, who has previously indicated plans to file lawsuits for as many as 120 people accusing the Bad Boy Records founder of various crimes, including sexual assault and the abuse of minors.
In a statement, Buzbee’s office said they would “let the allegations in the filed complaints speak for themselves.” The attorney also said they “expect to be filing many more cases over the next several weeks naming Mr. Combs and others as defendants as we continue to gather evidence and prepare the filings.”
In a series of lawsuits, multiple accusers have come forward with allegations against Diddy, detailing incidents from various events.
Biggie music video, 1995
A woman claimed that during a 1995 promotional party for Biggie Smalls’ “One More Chance” video, Diddy raped her after isolating her under the threat of harm if she reported it.
After the rape, the victim claimed that Diddy told her: “you better not tell anyone about this, or you will disappear.”
East Hampton White Party, 1998
An accuser who was a minor when he was assaulted, identified only as John Doe, claims Diddy invited him to a White Party in the Hamptons in 1998. During the event, Diddy allegedly took an interest in the teen, leading him to a secluded area near portable restrooms to discuss his music career.
However, the conversation took a disturbing turn when Diddy allegedly demanded he drop his pants and then groped him before returning to the party.
Security guard at a White Party, 2006
In a separate lawsuit, a security guard at a 2006 White Party claims Diddy provided him with drinks, the second drink caused him to feel “extremely ill and [the victim] leaned against his truck for support.” Lawyers for the plaintiff believe that the drink was spiked with GHB—a dangerous date rape drug.
The suit alleges Diddy then raped him after pushing him into a van.
Marriott Hotel, 2004
In 2004, a woman claimed she was invited to an afterparty at a Marriott hotel after a photoshoot for Diddy’s group Da Band.
Once there, a security guard allegedly locked her and a friend in a room with Diddy, who forced them to drink and do cocaine before assaulting them.
Marriott Hotels has been named as a co-defendant in the lawsuit. In a statement to the Daily Beast, the hotel chain stated that they have not yet reviewed the complaint and have no comment at this time.
Macy’s Stockroom, 2008
Another suit involves an Ecko Clothing advisor who met Diddy in a Macy’s stockroom in 2008.
The victim alleges Diddy assaulted him, yelling obscenities, and left as if nothing had happened. The lawsuit claims that Macy’s “pressured Ecko executives to terminate the Plaintiff’s employment after Macy’s signed a multi-million-dollar deal with Sean John Clothing.” As a result, the victim was fired, and no further actions were pursued.
Macy’s was also named as a co-defendant.
Management employee, 2021
A recent lawsuit details an incident involving a brand management employee at a party in October 2021.
Despite limiting himself to one drink, he reported feeling overwhelmed and paralyzed in a bedroom, where he was sexually assaulted by multiple men, including Diddy.
“Even though Plaintiff only consumed one alcoholic drink, the effects of the drink were immediate and overwhelming,” the suit claims.
Diddy has been held at Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center since his arrest on September 16. He faces charges of racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking, and transportation for prostitution, with over 120 alleged victims, including ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura. Diddy has pleaded not guilty, and his trial is set for May 5, 2025.
