Six accusers — four men and two women — claimSean “Diddy” Combssexually abused them in separate complaints filed on Tuesday, Nov. 19, as the allegations against the music mogul continue to pile up.
“For years Combs and his businesses engaged in a persistent and pervasive pattern of abuse toward women, men and minors,” the complaints all allege. “This abuse was, at times, verbal, emotional, physical and sexual. As part of his pattern of abuse, Combs manipulated both men and women to participate in highly-orchestrated performances of sexual activity with both commercial sex workers and unsuspecting partygoers.”
The plaintiff alleges that after being asked to turn around, Combs said, “He’ll do.”
In another complaint, a third plaintiff claims that she was drugged and sexually assaulted during Combs’ Fourth of July party on Long Island in 2004. The woman says she was 17 years old at the time of the alleged assault and that Combs threatened to “ruin her” if she spoke about the incident.
