The case against rapper P. Diddy, whose real name is Sean Combs, is shocking. The legal team working on the case has announced that they will file 120 additional sexual assault lawsuits. They will significantly increase the number of charges against the music producer and artist.
Combs and his accomplices have already been charged with sexual assault, and they will also be accused of threatening victims to keep quiet and handing out $10,000 in hush money. Lead attorney Tony Buzbee noted that the biggest secret in the entertainment industry, which was not a secret, has been revealed to the world. The victims were mostly attacked in New York City, either in the Hamptons or Manhattan, or in Los Angeles and Miami. They took place in high-profile locations, private residences, hotels, and at parties and album releases. Attacks were also allegedly carried out at Combs’ auditions and crowded “white parties” that he hosted in the early 2000s.
More than half of the alleged victims reported the attacks to police or went to the hospital. Toxicology reports showed that some of them had massive doses of tranquilizers in their systems.
According to some reports, the majority of the alleged victims were African-American, while another third were white. Of the 120 alleged victims, 25 were minors at the time of the attacks. The youngest victim, Puff Daddy, was 9 years old.
Attorney Andrew Van Arsdale said that Combs’ alleged victims were roughly equal in number among men and women, ranging in age from 9 to 38. And the abuse spans a 20-year period in the 2000s and 2010s, when the rapper was at the height of his fame. After Sean Combs’ arrest, many women decided to speak out.
But the rapper and producer’s attorney, Erica Wolf, continues to deny all the allegations and calls the whole thing a reckless media circus.
Sean Combs, who has denied all the allegations against him, has been accused of sexual assault nearly a dozen times by women and men. He was arrested without bail on September 16 and charged with sex trafficking and extortion.
The law firms of Buzbee and Van Arsdale then put out a call for potential victims to come forward following the rapper’s arrest. They received more than 3,000 responses in just 10 days, but the legal team narrowed that number down to more than 100 cases that could be confirmed or presumed to be credible.
