Diddy Faces New Lawsuit, John Doe Claims Star Athlete Prevented Assault
Written by djfrosty on October 23, 2024
Sean “Diddy” Combs and his ongoing legal issues have introduced several layers since his arrest, including a series of new lawsuits alleging a variety of criminal activity. In one of the latest lawsuits, a John Doe claims that a professional star athlete prevented Diddy from sexually assaulting him at an event for the Ciroc brand.
Page Six reports that the lawsuit from John Doe, who is said to be a luxury car salesman and rented jewelry broker, states that Sean “Diddy” Combs hosted a Ciroc launch party in 2022. According to the lawsuit, Diddy allegedly invited the man into a private office suite where he removed his pants and exposed his private parts.
“Combs continued to move closer and then grabbed Plaintiff’s genitals through his pants, squeezing them in a rough and sexual manner,” reads a portion of the lawsuit. The account from John Doe continues with him recalling from his side that as Combs allegedly continued to crowd his personal space, the star athlete came into the room and halted the mogul from assaulting John Doe further.
John Doe wrote in the legal filing that Combs was one of his customers, although it isn’t clear which of his businesses Combs patronized in the past. He added that Diddy left the party after the athlete stepped in.
This latest lawsuit comes after a weekend of new filings, including one woman coming forth to say that Combs, a famous male and famous female celebrity allegedly raped her during a MTV Music Awards afterparty when she was 13 back in 2000.
Via his legal team, Combs is maintaining his innocence via a statement to the outlet reading, “Mr. Combs and his legal team have full confidence in the facts, their legal defenses, and the integrity of the judicial process. In court, the truth will prevail: that Mr. Combs has never sexually assaulted anyone—adult or minor, man or woman.”
