The American musician and businessman Sean Combs has added six other accusations of sexual abuse this Monday, including one that relates him to an assault against a minor. The civil lawsuits are filed a month after the artist, known artistically as Puff Daddy or Diddy, was arrested in New York, formally accused by a judge of sex trafficking, illicit association and transportation to engage in prostitution. A judge denied Combs’ request to be released on bail on October 10 and set the trial date for May 5, 2025.
The 54-year-old rapper has denied committing crimes in other allegations in the last month and has pleaded not guilty. The new lawsuits have been filed in federal court in New York anonymously by the Tony Buzbee law firm, who claim to represent 120 people who accuse the musician of abuse. The firm has assured in a statement that it will file additional lawsuits in the coming weeks. Among the letters is that of a man who accuses the businessman of attacking him when he was still a minor.
“For decades, Sean Combs abused, molested, raped, assaulted, threatened and coerced women, men and minors for his sexual gratification, to impose his dominance and to conceal his abhorrent conduct,” stated John Doe in one of the lawsuits. one of the alleged victims. The plaintiff alleged that during a party at the rapper’s mansion in the Hamptons (east of New York City) in 1998, he ordered him to drop his pants and then fondled his genitals. Doe claims he was 16 years old at the time.
