Today a new lawsuit was filed against Sean “Diddy” Combs in New York. The complaint details the sexual assault of a 10-year-old boy who was an aspiring actor/rapper.
Variety reports: “In an attempt to help their son’s career aspirations, the boy’s parents hired an industry consultant who recommended they fly from their home in Los Angeles to New York to meet with music industry figures. During the trip, the consultant arranged for Combs to meet with the young boy for an “audition,” and Combs asked to meet with the boy alone before meeting with the family.
The consultant took the boy to Combs’ hotel room and left him alone with him. The boy performed a few rap songs for Combs, who told him he could “make him a star” and asked him how badly he wanted it.
According to the complaint, “plaintiff responded, as might any ten-year-old child, that he would ‘do anything.'”
Another person present then gave the boy a soda, which he drank. Shortly after, he began to feel “a little funny,” which the plaintiff’s attorney claims was because the drink was laced with drugs “including but not limited to GHB and/or ecstasy.” After consuming the soda, Combs allegedly told the boy to move closer to him and pushed him down, telling him something to the effect of “you have to do some stuff you don’t want to do sometimes.”
Once pushed down, Combs exposed his penis and told him to “kiss it.” After refusing, Combs apparently forced him to perform oral sex, and the boy shortly after lost consciousness. When he came to, Combs’ “pants were undone, and his anus and buttocks hurt badly.” He cried and said he wanted to see his parents, to which Combs told him that if he said anything to anyone, he would hurt his parents.
When the consultant returned, she noticed he was “badly shaken” and took him back to his parents, who ascertained he was “lethargic and acting differently.” In the time since the alleged assault, the John Doe has suffered from “severe depression and anxiety, which leaves him hopeless and fatigued.”
