Ever since singer Cassie filed and settled a bombshell lawsuit alleging decades of sexual violence and sex trafficking against longtime ex-partner and hip-hop music mogul Sean "Diddy," Combs the floodgates have opened. This has resulted in Diddy vehemently denying any wrongdoing and stepping down from his businesses.
This week a fourth woman has come forward accusing Combs of sexual assault in a lawsuit filed on Wednesday in New York federal court. The lawsuit alleged that she was a teen when she was gang raped and sex trafficked by Combs alongside Harve Pierre, a former president of Bad Boy Records and another unnamed person. The unidentified woman claimed that the assault took place in 2003 when she was 17 and Combs was 34. The lawsuit was filed under the Victims of Gender-Motivated Violence Protection Law. NBC News reported that the law allows survivors of alleged gender-motivated violence, including sexual abuse that occurred in the state, until March 2025, to file civil claims.
