Sean Combs Sued by Six New Accusers — Including Teen Claiming Assault at White Party

The Houston lawyer who promised a flurry of new lawsuits against Sean “Diddy” Combs filed his first complaints Monday on behalf of two Jane Does and four John Does who allege they were the victims of violent sexual assaults between 1995 and 2021. One plaintiff claims he was 16 years old when Combs allegedly assaulted him at one of the mogul’s famous “white parties.”

The lead lawyer behind the lawsuits, Tony Buzbee, recently touted his representation of 120 people who claim disturbing abuse by Combs. The six new lawsuits, filed in the Southern District of New York under the city’s Victims of Gender-Motivated Violence Protection Act, include allegations Combs drugged, raped, sodomized and threatened to kill the plaintiffs.

Reps for Combs did not immediately respond to a request for comment sent Monday.

A John Doe who now lives in North Carolina is the first male minor to accuse Combs of sexual assault, claiming he was 16 years old when he was invited to one of Combs’ legendary Hamptons-based white parties through a mutual connection in 1998.

Doe claims that he bumped into Combs during the event, taking a photo with the Bad Boy Entertainment founder, which was included in the filing. They began to discuss Doe’s interest in the music industry, moving to a private area where the conversation “took an unexpected turn for the worst,” the lawsuit claims. Combs allegedly told Doe to “drop his pants” and said, “don’t you want to break into the business?”

The lawsuit claims that Combs then “grabbed John Doe’s penis and genitals with his hand” and began “squeezing and feeling” the teen’s genitals. Afterward, Combs allegedly told Doe that his “people would be in touch.” The alleged encounter “continues to humiliate and cause shame,” Doe’s lawsuit claims.

Another teenager claims she was assaulted by Combs in 2004. A Jane Doe alleges she was a 19-year-old college student when she met Combs at a photoshoot promoting Combs’ musical act Da Band. She claims Combs invited her and a friend to an afterparty but asked them to stop by his Manhattan Marriott hotel room first. According to the 19-page complaint, someone in Combs’ entourage “suddenly grabbed” the women and isolated them in a separate room with Combs while allegedly telling them, “You know what you are here for.”

The Jane Doe alleges Combs instructed the women to imbibe more drinks and cocaine that he had prepared for them on a table. “Combs continued getting gradually more aggressive with the two women and eventually began forcibly touching them without consent,” the lawsuit states. “When they resisted, Combs ordered Ms. Doe’s friend to perform oral sex on him or else he would have them both killed.”

The woman says Combs ignored her attempts to resist and forced her to take her clothes off under threat of violence. “Once she was undressed, Combs forced himself on her and began to sexually assault her. Combs fondled, molested, and ultimately raped Ms. Doe, all while she was begging him to stop,” the lawsuit states. According to the complaint, Combs told the woman he would be leaving the room, but she had to stay alone in the dark “otherwise she would be killed.” After 30 minutes, a security guard told her she could leave, and she fled the hotel, her lawsuit states.

A third lawsuit came from a Georgia-based John Doe, who claims that he was invited to a New York City party hosted by Combs in October 2021. After being picked up at the airport by Combs’ associates, the man claims he arrived at the industry event where he was offered ecstasy by Combs’ employees, which he refused.  

But after consuming what he believed to be only an alcoholic drink, the man claims the room began spinning, and he became disoriented. “In a state of confusion, he attempted to remove himself from the situation, seeking a safe space,” the lawsuit claims. “As [Doe] tried to leave, a male voice told him to ‘hold on,’ and he promised to help him.”

Doe claims he awoke in a bedroom paralyzed, unable to “move, speak, or fight back.” “He distinctly recalled seeing Combs above him, naked, at one point during the assault,” the lawsuit claims. “During this time, Plaintiff was sodomized by at least three men.” 

The man described the night as “life-altering” and says he has continued to seek therapy to heal from the traumatic event. He is suing for rape, aggravated sexual abuse, assault, and battery. 

The fourth lawsuit came from a John Doe, who claims Combs sexually assaulted him at Macy’s flagship department store in Manhattan in May 2008. The man claims he worked as an advisor for Ecko Clothing — a rival to Combs’ Sean John line — and says he had previously met Combs on numerous occasions.

Doe — who is now based in Ohio — claims he was inside the Macy’s stockroom when Combs entered the space with three bodyguards. Doe claims he was suddenly struck in the back of the neck, falling to his knees. “Combs approached Plaintiff while Plaintiff was still on his hands and knees and said ‘Suck my dick, Ecko,’ referring to the clothing line that Plaintiff worked for,” the lawsuit claims. “Combs thereafter forced his penis into Plaintiff’s mouth and proceeded to forcefully, and brutally, orally rape Plaintiff.”

The man claims that Combs and his bodyguards made threats toward him before leaving the stockroom. Combs then proceeded to hand out Sean Jean merchandise on the Macy’s retail floor “as if nothing had happened,” the lawsuit adds. Doe claims that although he tried reporting the alleged assault to Macy’s security, nothing was ever done, and he was later fired by Ecko.

In a fifth lawsuit, a John Doe claims he was also sexually assaulted at one of Combs’ white parties. The man claims MASS Security hired him to work the Hamptons event in August 2006, where Combs allegedly greeted him and offered him alcoholic drinks throughout the night. 

By the second drink, the man claims that he felt “extremely ill and leaned against his truck for support,” later claiming he believed the drink was drugged. While the security guard felt sick, Combs allegedly approached him and “pushed [him] into an open van.” The lawsuit claims that Combs held down and “overpowered” the man, who “struggled to escape due to the effects of the drugs in his system.” 

Combs allegedly sexually assaulted the man, according to the lawsuit, “all the while dismissing Plaintiff’s pleas for help by repeatedly saying, ‘you’ll be alright.’” In the years since the man says, while he considers himself an “all-American guy,” there is “not a day goes by without thoughts of the traumatic incident.” 

The sixth lawsuit came from a Jane Doe, who claims that she attended a promo party for The Notorious B.I.G.’s music video “One More Chance” at Elks Plaza in June 1995. While dancing with friends, the woman claims Combs took an interest in her and asked to speak somewhere privately. She agreed, and they headed into a bathroom where Combs allegedly began kissing the woman. 

“Feeling uncomfortable and confused, [Doe] asked him to slow down, believing they were there to talk,” the lawsuit claims. “Instead, Combs advanced aggressively. When [Doe] attempted to pull away, he violently struck her, slamming her head against the wall and causing her to fall to the floor.” 

Doe claims that Combs hit her again before sexually assaulting her. Afterward, he allegedly threatened her, saying, “You better not tell anyone about this, or you will disappear.” Describing herself as “emotionally shattered” in the aftermath of the alleged assault, the woman claims she has since avoided news about Combs because it triggers traumatic memories.

The six new lawsuits follow a dozen other complaints filed over the last year that allege Combs subjected people to sexual abuse during his heyday as a hip-hop mogul. The flood of lawsuits started with the bombshell rape and sex-trafficking lawsuit filed against Combs by his ex-girlfriend Casandra “Cassie” Ventura last November. It was quickly followed by several more accusers stepping forward and a criminal investigation that led to Combs’ indictment by a grand jury last month.

Combs, 54, was arrested in Manhattan on Sept. 16  on racketeering and sex trafficking charges. In the 14-page indictment, prosecutors said Combs ran a criminal enterprise that engaged in “unlawful acts of violence including sexual violence,” interstate transportation for the purposes of prostitution, narcotics distribution, arson, bribery, kidnapping, and obstruction of justice. Prosecutors said a main function of the alleged enterprise was to “lure female victims into Combs’ orbit, often under the pretense of a romantic relationship,” and then use “force, threats of force and coercion” to make the victims engage in “elaborate and produced sex performances” that Combs called “freak offs.” The extended sex acts often involved commercial sex workers and would sometimes last multiple days, they said. Combs allegedly distributed drugs to his alleged victims to keep them “obedient and compliant,” prosecutors said.

Combs has pleaded not guilty to the charges in the indictment and was denied bail. Last week, a judge set a trial date for May 2025.

“We will let the allegations in the filed complaints speak for themselves and will work to see that justice is done,” attorney Tony Buzbee said in a statement. “We expect to be filing many more cases over the next several weeks naming Mr. Combs and others as defendants as we continue to gather evidence and prepare the filings.”
