Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs has been accused of sexually assaulting a 10-year-old boy in the latest complaint filed against him.
The newest lawsuit against Sean “Diddy” Combs in the deluge of cases filed against him alleges that the mogul sexually assaulted a 10-year-old boy. Attorney Tony Buzbee filed the suit in the Supreme Court of the State of New York — the latest in what Buzbee says will be around 120 new lawsuits announced earlier this month.
The suit, filed by a John Doe residing in California who wishes to remain anonymous, says the assault took place in 2005 when he was only 10 years old. The filing explains he was interested in becoming an actor or rapper, and his parents hired an industry consultant who eventually arranged for Combs to meet with him for what was described as an audition.
During the boy’s trip with his parents to New York to meet with Combs, the suit says he asked to meet with the boy alone before meeting with his family. The consultant took him to Combs’ hotel room and left him alone with the music mogul.
While alone with Combs in the hotel room, the boy was given a soda by another person, which he drank. Shortly thereafter, he says he began to feel “a little funny,” which is believed to have been because the drink was laced with drugs. He says Combs told him to move closer to him and then pushed him down, telling him that to make it in the music industry, “you have to do some stuff you don’t want to do sometimes.”
Combs allegedly exposed his genitals to the boy and told him to “kiss it,” before forcing him to perform oral sex when he refused. Shortly afterward, the boy lost consciousness. When he awoke, his “anus and buttocks hurt badly,” and Combs’ “pants were undone.” He cried and said he wanted to go back to his parents, to which Combs is said to have told him if he said anything to anyone, he would hurt his parents.
This suit is one of two new lawsuits filed in New York on Monday. The second comes from a man who claimed he was sexually assaulted by Combs in 2008 when he was 17 years old while auditioning for “Making the Band.” The accuser, also an anonymous John Doe, says Combs forced him to perform oral sex during three separate auditions for the show, as well as his bodyguard identified as “T.”
According to the suit, Combs told him the sex acts were “a test” to see how badly he wanted to make it in the music industry. When he visually expressed discomfort with the situation, Combs allegedly said he would be “keeping an eye” on him. He was ultimately eliminated from the competition.
Like other lawsuits filed by Tony Buzbee against Combs, the disgraced mogul’s attorneys have categorically denied the allegations. “The lawyer behind this lawsuit is interested in media attention rather than the truth, as is obvious from his constant press appearances and 1-800 number,” said representatives for Combs. “Mr. Combs cannot respond to every new publicity stunt, even in response to claims that are facially ridiculous or demonstrably false.”
Combs is currently held at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, New York, following his arrest on September 16 by Homeland Security on charges including racketeering, sex trafficking, and transportation to engage in prostitution. He has pleaded not guilty to the charges and has been denied bail by two separate judges. His trial is set to begin in May 2025.
