Sean “Diddy” Combs and his son Justin Combs have been hit with a new lawsuit alleging a “brutal gang-rape” that took place in 2017. The lawsuit was filed in a Los Angeles court on June 27, 2025, as closing arguments were underway in Diddy’s federal trial for sex trafficking and racketeering conspiracy.
The plaintiff accuses Justin Combs of using his father’s celebrity status to lure her from Louisiana to Los Angeles under the pretense of a job opportunity. Once in Los Angeles, she claims she was held against her will for a weekend and subjected to repeated sexual assaults by Justin, his father, and two masked men, as detailed in the complaint.
This lawsuit arrives in the midst of a high-profile seven-week trial, where Sean Combs faces serious allegations of running a criminal enterprise involved in various crimes, including sex trafficking, drug distribution, and coercing women into participating in drug-fueled sexual encounters. These allegations have intensified following a lawsuit filed by Diddy’s former partner, singer Cassie Ventura, in late 2023, which resulted in a swift $20 million settlement.
The latest lawsuit describes Justin Combs as having promised the woman a job while holding her “risqué” photos over her head, creating a situation of coercion. The plaintiff, described in the suit as an accomplished professional, alleges that she was drugged and raped over the course of the weekend in a Beverly Hills property.
The suit details a “pervasive history of sexual assault and violence” attributed to Sean Combs, suggesting that this behavior is reflective of his son’s actions as well. The plaintiff seeks compensatory and punitive damages for the emotional and physical trauma she claims to have endured.
In response to the allegations, Diddy’s legal team has denied all claims, asserting that anyone can file a lawsuit for any reason and emphasizing that Combs has never engaged in sexual assault or trafficking.
As the legal battles continue, both Sean and Justin Combs face serious accusations that could significantly impact their personal and professional lives. The outcome of the ongoing trial and this new lawsuit remains to be seen.
