Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs faces new sexual assault lawsuits as he awaits trial

Combs denies wrongdoing alleged in three new lawsuits filed against rapper and mogul, including claim he ‘effectively imprisoned’ male adult entertainer

On Tuesday, a man filing in New York’s Southern District court anonymously as John Doe alleged that Combs coerced him into sex acts over a number of years. Combs is currently being held at New York’s Metropolitan Detention Center, having been denied bail three times as he awaits trial on federal charges, separate to the dozens of civil cases he faces. Those charges, to which he pleaded not guilty, are that he “abused, threatened, and coerced women and others, and led a racketeering conspiracy that engaged in sex trafficking, forced labour, kidnapping, arson, bribery, and obstruction of justice, among other crimes”.
