In her 2023 legal filing, Cassie claimed Sean “Diddy” Combs was repeatedly abusive towards her following their first meeting in 2005. She alleged the rapper urged her to take drugs, forced her to engage in sexual acts with other men, and physically abused her. Cassie’s lawsuit also accused Diddy of sex trafficking and rape. In a statement issued to The New York Times, Cassie said, “After years in silence and darkness. I am finally ready to tell my story, and to speak up on behalf of myself and for the benefit of other women who face violence and abuse in their relationships.”
Diddy denied Cassie’s allegations. “For the past six months, Mr. Combs has been subjected to Ms. Ventura’s persistent demand of $30 million, under the threat of writing a damaging book about their relationship, which was unequivocally rejected as blatant blackmail,” Diddy’s lawyer, Ben Brafman, said. He then added, “Ms. Ventura has now resorted to filing a lawsuit riddled with baseless and outrageous lies, aiming to tarnish Mr. Combs’s reputation and seeking a payday.” The same month the lawsuit was made public, Cassie and Diddy reached an undisclosed settlement.
By December 2023, there were four lawsuits against Diddy, a father of seven, including an allegation from a woman who alleged she was gang raped by him as a teenager. Rodney ‘Lil Rod’ Jones has also accused Diddy of sexual misconduct in a lawsuit that mentions Prince Harry. Diddy has denied all the allegations.
