Sean Diddy Combs Denies ‘Fictional’ Gang Rape Allegations
Sean “Diddy” Combs has issued a court statement disputing allegations that he gang-raped a 17-year-old girl in 2003.
This was one of four distinct sexual assault allegations brought against the R&B star late last year.
The suit, Jane Doe, claimed that she was taken by private jet from Michigan to Combs’ recording studio in New York.
After being offered “copious amounts” of narcotics and drink, the plaintiff claimed she was assaulted by three persons, including Combs and Bad Boy Entertainment chief Harve Pierre.
On February 20, Combs, led by Attorney Shawn Holley, told a federal court that Jane Doe’s claims were “entirely fictional.”
They also responded to photo-graphs provided by the plaintiff — in which she is pictured sitting on Combs’ lap in his recording studio — by arguing the photo-graphs were potentially falsified or taken out of context.
“He never participated in, witnessed, or was or is presently aware of any misconduct, sexual or otherwise, relating to the plaintiff in any circumstance whatsoever,” the document reads.
Combs’ attorneys also claim these allegations are unconstitutional considering his accuser’s “decision to wait more than two decades” has obstructed his “ability to defend himself fully and fairly.”
“Some or all evidence that otherwise would have been available if the action had been promptly commenced may be unavailable, lost, or compromised,” Combs’ attorneys write.
The case against Combs was filed under the Victims of Gender-Motivated Violence Protection Law, which allows cases with significant time gaps to be filed outside the usual statute of limitations.
In a statement, Jane Doe’s lawyer Douglas Wigdor writes, “The deeply troubling allegations against the defendants by multiple women speak for themselves.
The ridiculous claim that the photos are somehow fake and the law at issue is unconstitutional is nothing more than desperate attempts to conjure a defence where none exists.
