‘Should you suck [it] proper, I’ll make your profession take off,” the presently incarcerated Unhealthy Boy Information founder instructed plaintiff John Doe in his trailer at a “high-profile business” shoot in late 2022, early 2023 in what’s characterised as a “blatant sexual quid-pro-quo.”
“Combs framed this assembly as a chance for (Doe) to advance his profession,” the March 26 criticism in New York Supreme Courtroom states of the encounter.

Moreover, in her second Combs case ruling right this moment, US District Decide Jennifer Rochon rejected a Jane Doe movement to maintain her actual intently hidden. “Plaintiff shall file a criticism in her personal title no later than April 10, 2025,” the federal decide wrote Thursday of the Buzbee represented girl who first filed her declare of a 1991 sexual assault by Diddy in December final yr. The identical NYC-based Decide Rochon got here to the identical conclusion for a John Doe who wished to remain nameless in his October 16, 2024 filed allegations that Diddy raped him in 1998. Like Jane Doe within the different case this additionally Buzbee represented John Doe has till April 10 to file a criticism “in his personal title no later than April 10, 2025.”

Goetz beneath the premise that that is “a civil and never a felony continuing.” On March 26, the plaintiff’s Rheingold Giuffra Ruffo Protkin & Hellman lawyer Jeremy A. Hellman filed a notion to reargue the movement.
Whatever the end result of Combs’ felony trial, the defendant goes to be out and in of courtroom for years.
