A security worker claimed he was drugged and sexually assaulted by Sean “Diddy” Combs in August 2006. According to court documents obtained by AllHipHop, attorney Tony Buzbee’s client sued Diddy for an alleged rape inside a van parked at the mogul’s East Hamptons property.

John Doe said he accepted a last-minute security job for an event hosted by Diddy. The plaintiff allegedly became Diddy’s victim after drinking drug-laced drinks at the party.

“As the event progressed, Combs targeted plaintiff and provided him with two alcoholic drinks throughout the night,” John Doe’s attorneys wrote. “After consuming the second drink, plaintiff began to feel extremely ill and leaned against his truck for support … Combs, by himself or through his agents/employees, previously laced the drink with drugs, including but not limited to GHB and/or ecstasy. This behavior towards plaintiff mimics a pattern of Combs and his agents/employees drugging unsuspecting victims in order to make it easier for Combs to sexually assault that person. Unfortunately, plaintiff was one such victim. A photograph of an exemplary container used by Combs and/or his agents/employees to insert GHB into alcoholic drinks is seen below.”

Diddy allegedly checked on John Doe after supplying the security worker with two drinks. The plaintiff believed Diddy was genuinely concerned but there were ulterior motives, per the lawsuit.

“[John Doe] soon found himself being forcibly pushed into an open van by Combs, an act that left him in considerable pain,” his lawyers wrote. “Once inside the van, plaintiff was held down by Combs, who overpowered him while he struggled to escape due to the effects of the drugs in his system. In a horrific turn of events, Combs sexually assaulted plaintiff by inserting his penis into plaintiff’s a### and sodomizing him, all the while dismissing plaintiff’s pleas for help by repeatedly saying, ‘You’ll be alright.’”

The alleged victim struggled to leave the party due to the drugs in his system. He “experienced a disturbing sensation as a lubricant-like fluid leaked from him.” John Doe informed his security firm’s supervisor what happened when he finally got home.

“Upon arriving home and showering, plaintiff noticed more semen discharge, which intensified his feelings of violation and revulsion,” the lawsuit noted. “In the aftermath of the assault, plaintiff struggled with intense emotional pain and mental health issues, feeling disgusted and deeply depressed. Plaintiff has experienced a significant impact on his personal life; he has never married and often struggles to maintain relationships due to the assault.”

John Doe sued Diddy for violating New York City’s Victims of Gender-Motivated Violence Protection Act. The Bad Boy Records founder’s lawyers denied the allegations.

“The press conference and 1-800 number that preceded today’s barrage of filings were clear attempts to garner publicity,” Diddy’s attorneys contended. “Mr. Combs and his legal team have full confidence in the facts, their legal defenses, and the integrity of the judicial process. In court, the truth will prevail: that Mr. Combs has never sexually assaulted anyone—adult or minor, man or woman.”

Diddy was indicted for racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking and transportation to engage in prostitution in September. He remains in jail awaiting trial.

Sean “Diddy” Comb was accused of sexually assaulting a minor in a lawsuit filed by Tony Buzbee’s law firm on Monday (October 14). According to court documents obtained by AllHipHop, a John Doe said he was molested at one of Diddy’s white parties in the Hamptons.

John Doe was invited to Diddy’s party through a mutual connection in 1998. The alleged victim, who was 16 years old at the time, saw it as his chance to break into the music industry.

The plaintiff met Diddy at the party and took a photo with the Bad Boy Records founder. Diddy allegedly “took an interest in John Doe and wanted to talk to him.” They went to a more private area and discussed John Doe’s career prospects. They engaged in what John Doe called a “pleasant conversation” before an “unexpected turn.”

“Combs abruptly told John Doe that he needed to drop his pants,” the alleged victim’s lawyers wrote. “John Doe, caught completely off guard, confusingly asked Combs to repeat himself. Combs made himself clear. He instructed John Doe to drop his pants and expose his penis so that Combs could inspect it, explaining it was a rite of passage and the route to becoming a star, and also as a way to prove himself. ‘Don’t you want to break into the business?’ Doe immediately felt uncomfortable, froze and did not know what to do. Combs remained calm and stood in front of him and stretched out his hand in a cupped position. Out of fear, anxiety and the imbalanced power dynamic between himself and Combs, John Doe then dropped his pants and exposed his penis as Combs previously instructed.”

The attorneys continued, “Combs moved closer and grabbed John Doe’s penis and genitals with his hand. He firmly cupped and held onto John Doe’s genitals for an extended period of time. During this time, Combs moved his hand in such a fashion to manipulate John Doe’s genitals, squeezing and feeling them. Doe was only sixteen. Combs abruptly then let go of John Doe’s genitals and told him that his people would be in touch. Combs continued with his party as if nothing had happened, but for John Doe, everything had changed. John Doe eventually recognized Combs sexually assaulted him by and through his power and influence over John Doe because he knew John Doe wanted to become a star.”

John Doe was afraid to report what happened due to Diddy’s power and notoriety. The plaintiff said he still experiences humiliation and shame over the incident.

Diddy’s lawyers denied the allegations.

“The press conference and 1-800 number that preceded today’s barrage of filings were clear attempts to garner publicity,” they said. “Mr. Combs and his legal team have full confidence in the facts, their legal defenses, and the integrity of the judicial process. In court, the truth will prevail: that Mr. Combs has never sexually assaulted anyone—adult or minor, man or woman.”

The alleged victim sought damages for pain and suffering, mental anguish, physical impairment and emotional torment. John Doe sued Diddy for violating New York City’s Victims of Gender-Motivated Violence Protection Act.

Diddy was arrested for sex trafficking, racketeering conspiracy and transportation to engage in prostitution in September. His trial is scheduled to begin in May 2025.

A former advisor for Ecko Clothing sued Sean “Diddy” Combs for violating New York City’s Victims of Gender-Motivated Violence Protection Act on Monday (October 14). According to court documents obtained by AllHipHop, the lawsuit accused Diddy of oral rape. The alleged victim filed the complaint as John Doe.

“On or around May 2008, plaintiff was in the stockroom at Macy’s flagship store at Herald Square in Manhattan when Combs and three of his bodyguards entered the stockroom,” his attorneys wrote. “Plaintiff came upon Combs and his bodyguards at a ‘T’ junction in the stockroom where plaintiff had very little room to maneuver. Combs was flanked by two large bodyguards to the left and one large bodyguard to the right. Immediately after turning a corner in the stockroom, plaintiff was hit hard around the base of the neck, possibly with a pistol. The blow forced plaintiff to his hands and knees. As plaintiff looked up, he saw that each of the bodyguards had guns in their waistbands. Plaintiff heard multiple voices call out things like ‘I’ll kill you.’”

The lawyers continued, “Combs approached plaintiff while plaintiff was still on his hands and knees and said ‘Suck my dick, Ecko,’ referring to the clothing line that plaintiff worked for. Combs thereafter forced his penis into plaintiff’s mouth and proceeded to forcefully, and brutally, o##### rape the plaintiff. Combs continued for at least two minutes until e##########. While o##### raping plaintiff, Combs grabbed plaintiff’s hair and made derogatory comments like ‘You like that, white boy?’”

The lawsuit claimed Diddy said something to the effect ‘shut up or I’ll kill you’ after finishing his attack. He left the stockroom and started passing out merchandise to a crowd in Macy’s. The alleged victim tried to report the assault to the store’s security but never received any help.

John Doe said Macy’s eventually refused to let him return to their Herald Square store. Roughly three weeks later, Macy’s CEO allegedly pressured Ecko to fire John Doe because the retailer signed a multi-million dollar deal with Diddy’s Sean John brand. Ecko fired the plaintiff.

“Plaintiff … believes that the report of the assault was destroyed or otherwise purged from Macy’s records, and no action was ever taken as a result of the report,” attorneys wrote. “Plaintiff ultimately had to move out of New York. Plaintiff still fears for his life as a result of the incident and the threats made against him on that day, including the fact that plaintiff was known to Combs by way of his work with rival clothing company Ecko.”

John Doe sought undisclosed damages. He is one of the multiple people suing Diddy after the Hip-Hop mogul was indicted for racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking and transportation to engage in prostitution.
