Seven New Lawsuits Allege Rape By Combs And Others

CNN reports:

Seven new civil lawsuits have been filed against Sean “Diddy” Combs, including two from accusers who say they were minors at the time they were allegedly drugged and assaulted by the music producer. For the first time in a year-long wave of litigation against Combs, other celebrities are cited and accused of participating in an alleged assault, though they are not identified by name.

In a lawsuit filed by one Jane Doe, she states she was 13 in 2000, when she was invited by a limo driver to attend an MTV Video Music Awards afterparty thrown by Combs in New York City. After consuming a beverage, Doe’s complaint states she felt drowsy, and she looked for a place to lay down. Combs, joined by an unnamed male celebrity and an unnamed female celebrity, came into the bedroom where she was resting.

“You are ready to party!” Combs told Doe, according to her complaint. The unnamed male celebrity proceeded to rape Doe, her lawsuit states, while Combs and the unnamed female celebrity watched. Combs then raped Doe as the other two celebrities watched, according to her lawsuit.
