Diddy may be a hot topic these days due to the shocking allegations against him, but he may not be the only celebrity in the hot seat.
Attorney Tony Buzbee gave an interview on October 7 where he was asked if other celebrities would be named in future lawsuits.
Speaking with TMZ, he shared that more celebrities will be sued by his law firm in the coming weeks. Additionally, he revealed that he had sent a letter of request. This would give the celebrities in question an opportunity to pay to settle and avoid a public legal battle.
It didn’t end there as Buzbee revealed that some of the celebrities mentioned have settled down. However, he did not name the famous people.
Buzbee said anyone involved or aware of what happened should be held accountable. That includes people who participated in the assaults, helped them happen, went to parties where they knew people were being drugged and assaulted, witnessed the crimes being committed and held silence or help cover up assaults.
Buzbee noted that his firm is doing the work to ensure that the lawsuits are not a money grab and that what people are advancing has value.
Currently, Buzbee is representing 120 victims, but alleges that his firm handled that number from several thousand calls from people claiming to be victims of Diddy.
The first lawsuits will be filed this week and the purpose of the lawsuits will be to prosecute the companies that helped in Diddy’s alleged crimes. Celebrities will arrive at a later date.
News of more potential lawsuits emerged as Diddy’s mother spoke out about the allegations against her son.
Janice Smalls Combs told Page Six that Diddy’s case was nothing more than a “story made up of lies.” She went on to assert that the “lies and misconceptions” against Diddy did not give him time to “prove his innocence.” Although she admitted that her son had made mistakes in the past, she denied that he had ever been abusive.
Diddy pleaded not guilty to all charges and maintained his innocence throughout the process. He is currently in prison waiting to be traced.
