In a significant legal development, music mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs has been ordered to pay $100 million in a default judgment related to a sexual assault lawsuit.
Variety reports that the case was filed by Michigan inmate Derrick Lee Cardello-Smith, who alleged that Combs drugged and assaulted him at a 1997 party in Detroit. The judgment was handed down by a Lenawee County Circuit Court judge after Combs failed to appear for a virtual hearing on Monday.
