Sean “Diddy” Combs’ legal team is fighting back.
Attorneys for the incarcerated “Act Bad” rapper slammed the newest victims’ lawyer, Tony Buzbee, over the “barrage of lawsuits” he filed against the rapper, 54, Monday.
“The press conference and 1-800 number that preceded today’s barrage of filings were clear attempts to garner publicity,” the lawyers told Page Six in a statement.
“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.”
