Diddy scores major legal victory in producer Rodney Jones' sexual assault lawsuit


A judge overseeing the lawsuit threw out a majority of the claims Jones made against Sean 'Diddy' Combs, according to court documents obtained by TMZ.

Among the judge's criticisms was that Blackburn allegedly acted as if Diddy wasn't guaranteed a presumption of innocence in an ongoing federal case in which he was hit with charges for sex trafficking, racketeering and other offenses. Back in February 2024, Jones sued Diddy for alleged groping and a possible drug-induced rape, with the suit being filed just weeks before two of Combs' homes were raided by federal agents amid a sex trafficking probe Combs introduced him to Cuba Gooding Jr on the yacht where the actor allegedly began 'touching, groping, and fondling Mr Jones's legs, his upper inner thighs near his groin, the small of his back near his buttocks and his shoulders'.
