Sean “Diddy” Combs is accused of sexually assaulting three men, including one of his former employees, who allegedly doused them with spiked alcoholic drinks, according to new civil lawsuits filed Thursday in New York.
One of the men worked for the rap mogul and alleged that his former boss raped him in a hotel.
Lawsuits filed by anonymous whistleblowers alleged a pattern of behavior similar to that of Combs.
“It was a normal thing. You come to a meeting, you have a drink, you get tied up, you wake up to Sean Combs raping you, you get thrown out the door. I was struck by the similarities,” said Thomas Giuffra, the plaintiffs’ attorney. . “I contacted over 60 people. I chose to file these three until now because I verified them. They are very consistent with the pattern that Sean Combs followed.”

The music mogul’s lawyers accused the new accusers of lying. Combs has denied sexually assaulting anyone and has condemned the filing of anonymous lawsuits.
“These complaints are full of lies. We will prove them false and seek sanctions against all unethical attorneys who filed fictitious claims against him,” Combs’ attorneys said in a statement.
Giuffra said he will ask the judge to allow his clients to proceed without releasing their names.
“My clients fear that if their identities become public they will have a target on their backs,” Giuffra said. “They want to silence people. They’re trying to scare people.”
It’s combs currently in temporary prison In New York, after being indicted on federal racketeering and sex trafficking charges in September. He has pleaded not guilty to these charges.
