Three men have filed lawsuits against Sean 'Diddy' Combs in New York, alleging he drugged and sexually assaulted them between 2019 and 2022. These allegations emerge alongside federal sex trafficking charges against Combs, who is accused of using his power to exploit the victims. The lawsuits, filed anonymously as John Doe, highlight the stigma surrounding such accusations. The plaintiffs' attorney stated that this legal action allows the victims to reclaim their power after years of silence. In contrast, Combs' legal team has categorically denied the claims, labeling them as baseless and threatening legal action against the plaintiffs' attorneys.

The alleged incidents involve drugged drinks leading to sexual assaults in various locations, including Combs' hotel suites and mansion. Each plaintiff seeks a jury trial and unspecified damages, marking a significant moment in the ongoing dialogue about sexual misconduct in the entertainment industry. The unfolding legal proceedings may impact public perceptions and the legal landscape regarding sexual assault cases.
