The presently incarcerated Sean “Diddy” Combs is approaching the first anniversary of Cassie Ventura‘s quickly settled sexual assault and abuse case against him. Now six new lawsuits filed in the last few hours accuse the one-time music mogul of rape and more, including an attack on a teenage girl with other celebrities in the room and participating.
“Looking for a place to rest, Plaintiff entered what she believed to be an empty bedroom so she could lie down for a moment,” explains the Violation of New York City Victims of Gender-Motivated Violence Protection Act based action filed Sunday in federal court in New York by an now approximately 37-year-old Jane Doe on her actions at a post-MTV VMAs party late on September 7, 2000. Represented by Houston attorney Tony Buzbee, who has already filed six previous jury seeking suits against Combs for rape and more, the then 13-year-old Doe claims she was feeling “woozy and lightheaded” after just one drink at the party.
“Soon after, Combs, along with a male and female celebrity, entered the room,” the 19-page action says. “Combs aggressively approached Plaintiff with a crazed look in his eyes, grabbed her, and said, ‘You are ready to party!'”
“Combs then threw Plaintiff toward another male celebrity, Celebrity A, who removed Plaintiff’s clothes as she grew more and more disoriented,” the lawsuit adds. “Plaintiff was held down by Celebrity A who vaginally raped her while Combs and Celebrity B, a female, watched.After the male celebrity finished, Combs then vaginally raped Plaintiff while the Celebrity A and Celebrity B watched. Combs attempted to force Plaintiff to perform oral sex on him, but she resisted by hitting Combs in the neck; he stopped.”
No more information is given about the duo of other celebrities, but it no secret that Combs’ increasingly infamous white parties and other events attracted an A-list crowd over the decades.
Once the alleged assault by Combs and his unnamed pals ended in this particular filing, the victim got out of the room, out of “the large white house with a gated U-shaped driveway” where the drug fueled party was taking place, and eventually got in contact with her father who came to pick her up and take Jane Doe home.
“After the assault, Plaintiff fell into a deep depression which continues to affect every facet of her life,” states the suit from lawyer Buzbee, who filed similar actions on October 14 for four men and two women. With a 1-800 supposedly ringing off the hook, Lone Star lawyer Buzbee has said her has over 100 more alleged Combs victims on the verge of going public and to the courts soon.
With a total of 12 suits in the past week alone from Buzbee, and more expected in the next few days, it doesn’t look like the Texan is bluffing. In the second case now of Combs assaulting a minor, the half a dozen new civil cases from three woman and three men are seeking unspecified damages. Traversing from 2000 to just two years ago, the cases claim battery rape, false imprisonment, sexual harassment and rape by Combs and with others in cities like New York, LA and Las Vegas. All the cases say the alleged victims were required to sign restrictive NDAs before entering the parties and other events.
As in all the new jury seeking suits, this one involving the then 13-year-old shows an “actual” exemplary container used by Combs and members of his team to spike people’s beverages with the often harsh GHB drug. Though Combs has denied all allegations against him from long-time ex-girlfriends Ventura and the now over 20 other individuals who have claimed assault, abuse and more, the slipping of something that makes them “Woozy and lightheaded” into guests drinks comes up over and over in the legal actions against the Bad Boys Records founder — including the potentially life behind bars charges of sex trafficking Combs was arrested for by the feds on September 15 in NYC.
Representatives for Combs did not respond to request for comment from Deadline this early early morning. If they do, this post will be update. Last week, Combs’ reps called Buzbee and his initial six suits to be nothing more than a “clear attempt to garner publicity.”
However, as these half a dozen actions hit court dockets Sunday, Combs’ lawyers in his sex trafficking and more criminal case from the Department of Justice filed a letter to US District Judge Arun Subramanian to issue “an order prohibiting further extrajudicial statements from prospective witnesses and their lawyers that substantially interfere with Mr. Combs’s right to a fair trial.” This gag order by any other name follows a move by the Marc Agnifilo and Teny Geragos-led defense team to get prosecutors to reveal the names of Combs’ accusers and claims by the defense that Homeland Security agents leaked the 2016 LA hotel surveillance footage that showed a towel Combs beating Ventura as she tried to escape one of her then boyfriend’s so-called “freak offs.”
Twice denied pre-trial release on $50 million and more in the month since his arrest, and appealing in a long shot third attempt, Combs sits in Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn facing life behind bars if found guilty at a trial set to start on May 5, 2025.
Of course, with other big names potentially coming out, Combs’ case could get notoriously bigger or go to a plea deal before that trial date.
