New allegations have emerged against prominent rapper Sean “Diddy” Combs, with a man accusing him of drugging and raping him in a New York nightclub back in 2012.
The accuser, who was only 17 at the time, claims he paid a bouncer to gain entry to the club and was later invited to Combs’ private table, where he was allegedly given multiple shots of vodka.
After consuming the drinks, the young man stated that he started feeling hazy and disoriented, eventually losing consciousness and control of his body. The plaintiff, referred to in court documents as John Doe, alleges that he was led to a back room in the SoHo club where illicit activities were taking place.
The man claimed to have realized that the drinks he had been given were spiked, impairing his ability to think clearly. Despite being aware of what was happening, he felt defenseless and unable to stop the assault that allegedly took place in the back room of the nightclub.
Combs has consistently denied the allegations made against him in various civil lawsuits, denouncing them as “sickening”. His legal team has yet to respond to the latest accusations.
The rapper is currently facing more than 30 civil lawsuits alleging sexual assault and other misconduct, while also awaiting a federal criminal trial on charges of sex trafficking and racketeering.
In light of the mounting legal challenges, another prominent rapper, Kanye West, has publicly called on President Donald Trump to grant a pardon to Combs before his impending trial. West took to social media to show his support for Combs, urging the president to “FREE PUFF”.
