The musician is the target of lawsuits from four women, including his longtime partner Casandra “Cassie” Ventura, who claims he has abused her physically and sexually.
A similar lawsuit was filed in February by producer Rodney “Lil Rod” Jones, who claimed that Combs mistreated him for a year while he was residing on the star’s homes and recording music.
Combs defended himself against “sickening allegations” made by “individuals looking for a quick payday” in a statement released in December of last year.
He declared, “Let me be very clear: I did not do any of the horrible things being accused,” and vowed to fight.
But federal officials raided the star’s two homes in March 2024 “as part of an ongoing investigation” into sex trafficking.
His attorney upheld his client’s innocence and described the incident as a “unprecedented ambush” and a “gross overuse of military-level force”.
