It appears another victim has named fallen rap mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs in a new sexual assault case – this time, on behalf of a 9-year-old boy.
A law firm based in Houston, Texas, will represent more than 120 people who allege they were abused by the owner of “Bad Boy” entertainment company.
Attorney Tony Buzbee asserted that “a wave” of lawsuits is still to come, including claims by the victim, who claims he was just 9 years old when the hip-hop mogul abused him in a lesson at the studio.
According to ‘TMZ,’ Combs allegedly lured the child to an audition under the guise that he would offer him a recording contract before allegedly abusing the boy. Buzbee claims he will also represent other victims who claim they were minors when the alleged abuse occurred — at least 25 in total.
The lawyer claims his clients – including another 15-year-old who was allegedly flown to New York City and drugged – were sexually abused by the rap star and his accomplices .
Attorney Buzbee also claimed that they were often forced to drink drinks laced with horse tranquilizers. As of Friday, the attorney’s law firm announced it was representing more than 50 victims who had come forward with “heartbreaking” stories about what they experienced at Diddy’s “bizarre” parties.
That said, one of Diddy’s attorneys, Erica Wolff, seemed unconcerned about the allegations, which she called “baseless.” “As Mr. Combs’ legal team has emphasized, he cannot resolve every baseless allegation in what has become a reckless media circus,” Wolff told Hollywood Media.
Wolff continued: “That said, Mr. Combs unequivocally and unequivocally denies all false and defamatory allegations that he sexually abused anyone, including minors. He wishes to prove his innocence and vindicate himself in court if and when the complaints are filed and served, where the truth will be established based on evidence and not speculation.”
Sean “Diddy” Combs was arrested on September 16. He is currently being held without bail until trial. He has pleaded not guilty to all charges.
