Sean Combs Faces New Lawsuits Alleging Rape
Three men have filed lawsuits against music mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs, accusing him of drugging and raping them while they were unconscious. The alleged incidents occurred in New York City hotels and Combs’ Hamptons estate.
One victim claims to have been gang-raped by Combs and employees of his record label. Another alleges that Combs declared him “ready to party” before raping him while others filmed the assault.
The victims’ attorney, Thomas Giuffra, says his clients were afraid of Combs and have kept their allegations secret for years. He emphasizes that men make up a significant portion of rape victims and often face stigma.
Combs’ attorneys have denied the accusations and threatened sanctions against the lawyers involved.
The allegations are part of a pattern of sexual assault claims against Combs. He is currently in jail awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges and has pleaded not guilty to all allegations.
