Diddy Challenges $100 Million Judgment in Sexual Assault Lawsuit


Diddy is facing another legal setback after a judge ordered him to pay $100 million to a Michigan inmate

According to Detroit’s Metro Times, a Lenawee County Circuit Court judge set out a schedule with the hopes that Diddy, 54, would make monthly installment payments of $10 million, starting October 1. The default judgment — which was reached after Diddy failed to appear for a virtual hearing on Monday, September 9 — comes after Derrick Lee Cardello-Smith alleged in a lawsuit that the rapper drugged and sexually assaulted him at a 1997 party in Detroit. According to Metro Times, Cardello-Smith is a self-taught student of civil and criminal statutes and is serving an unrelated sentence at the Earnest C. Brooks Correctional Facility in Muskegon Heights.
