Jay-Z Seeks Dismissal of Historical Rape Allegation as Inconsistencies Surface

Date:

Attorneys for Jay-Z have moved to dismiss a lawsuit alleging his involvement in a 2000 sexual assault, citing significant inconsistencies in the accuser’s account of events following the MTV Video Music Awards.

The lawsuit, filed by an Alabama woman using the pseudonym Jane Doe, claims Jay-Z and Sean “Diddy” Combs drugged and assaulted her at age 13 during a house party. However, key details of her account have been challenged, including an alleged interaction with celebrities who were documented to be on tour at the time.

The accuser’s father has been unable to verify crucial elements of the story, including her claim that he drove five hours to collect her after the alleged incident. Additionally, photographic evidence places both Jay-Z and Combs at a different location during the timeframe in question.

Jay-Z’s attorney, Alex Spiro, condemned the filing in a statement to the BBC, criticizing the lack of proper vetting of the allegations. The rapper himself characterized the lawsuit as a pursuit of “money and fame,” while the accuser’s attorney, Tony Buzbee, maintains his client’s commitment to the allegations and has offered to submit to polygraph testing.

The case emerges amid multiple sexual assault lawsuits against Combs, who currently faces federal sex-trafficking charges in New York. While rape support providers note that assault survivors often misremember details, particularly in cases involving alleged drugging, the defense points to documented inconsistencies in the accuser’s timeline and location claims.
