Jay-Z, Sean Combs Accuser Drops Sexual Assault Lawsuit

The Jane Doe accuser claimed the rappers assaulted her as a 13-year-old in 2000.

A woman who alleged that she was sexually assaulted as a 13-year-old by Jay-Z and Sean “Diddy” Combs during a VMAs afterparty in 2000, has voluntarily withdrawn her lawsuit, according to court records obtained by Rolling Stone. Carter’s lawyer Alex Spiro seized on the alleged inconsistencies in the woman’s story in court filings, urging a judge to dismiss Doe’s complaint against his client. “By standing up in the face of heinous and false allegations, Jay has done what few can – he pushed back, he never settled, he never paid 1 red penny, he triumphed and cleared his name,” Spiro said in a statement provided to Rolling Stone on Friday.
