Two women have filed lawsuits alleging Sean “Diddy” Combs drugged and sexually assaulted them at New York’s Trump Hotel in the 1990s, adding to mounting legal challenges against the music mogul.
The lawsuits, filed anonymously as Jane Does, detail allegations from a former bottle service attendant and her friend. According to court documents, the incidents occurred after an event at the Limelight nightclub where Combs was hosting.
The first plaintiff, who worked as a bottle service attendant, alleges she and her friend were taken to a penthouse suite at Trump Hotel where they were held against their will and drugged. The lawsuit claims Combs directed a club promoter to rape her while he watched.
The second plaintiff alleges similar circumstances, stating she was drugged and assaulted by a security guard while Diddy observed. The first plaintiff also claims she was later assaulted at a 1997 party at Combs’s Hamptons residence.
Attorney Tony Buzbee, who represents multiple clients in civil cases against Combs, filed the lawsuits. Combs’s legal team maintains his innocence, stating, “Mr. Combs never sexually assaulted or trafficked anyone—man or woman, adult or minor.”
These allegations follow another recent lawsuit where a male plaintiff accused Diddy of sexual battery and conspiracy through his company Bad Boy Entertainment. The accuser claims Combs used promises of a record deal to coerce him into sexual acts at a Los Angeles nightclub in 2015.
