Jay-Z and Sean “Diddy” Combs Face Allegations of Sexual Assault: A Controversial Legal Battle

Alleged to have drugged and raped a 13-year-old girl at a 2000 after-party following the MTV Video Music Awards (VMAs) in New York, Rappers Jay-Z and Sean “Diddy” Combs are enmeshed in a well-publicized lawsuit. Identified as “Jane Doe,” the complainant changed her October lawsuit to include Jay-Z (Shawn Carter) as a co-defendant along with Combs. Both angrily refute the claims, writing them off as bogus extortion attempts.

Details of Allegations

The case brought under the New York Victims of Gender-Motivated Violence Protection Act claims that the plaintiff—then 13—was driven to an exclusive party following interactions with limousine drivers outside the VMAs location. The lawsuit states she was handed a drink that caused vertigo and thereafter escorted to a bedroom where the claimed attack took place.

• Alleged Assailants: The lawsuit claims that while an unidentified female celebrity watched, Jay-Z and Combs alternately attacked her. The complainant says she ran to safety after striking Combs.
• Plaintiff’s Current Condition: Alleged events cause the accuser to still suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder and despair.

The response of Jay-Z

Married to Beyoncé and with three children, Jay-Z dubbed the accusations “heinous” and accused Tony Buzbee, the plaintiff’s attorney, of planning a “blackmail attempt.” Jay-Z underlined in a statement posted on social media his rejection to settle the matter, saying:

“No sir, it makes me want to expose you for the fraud you are in a VERY public method. Thus, no; I will not offer ONE RED PENNY!”

Jay-Z further underlined his dedication to kid protection and denounced the assertions as fabrications meant to profit from his public persona.

Sean Combs’ Legal Problems

The legal team of Combs discounted the most recent allegations as unfounded efforts at extortion of money from well-known celebrities.

Attorney Tony Buzbee’s Role

Actions and Consequences

“My only heartache is for my family… Young children shouldn’t have to go through such abuse.”
