More horrific details are coming in from Sean 'Diddy' Combs' infamous white parties which reportedly turned into 'freak offs' as the night progressed and guests left. More and more individuals are coming forward with evidence in their lawsuits against him.&nbsp;

A man identifying as John Doe has shared a photograph from one such event, where he claims to have been assaulted by the music mogul in 1998. The image, featuring the then-16-year-old Doe and Combs, was included in a court filing submitted on October 14, alongside six new lawsuits against the rapper. 
 
On October 16, a PageSix report stated that the then 16-year-old unidentified male posed with the then 28-year-old music mogul at one of his infamous parties. The parties would often have top-tier Hollywood stars in attendance.&nbsp; 
Two can be seen in the photograph standing close together, with Diddy's arm wrapped around the accuser’s shoulder in the Hamptons.

In the lawsuit, Doe alleges that Combs, sexually assaulted him at the event, touching his genitals without consent. “As a result of Combs’ sexual assault on John Doe while he was a minor, John Doe experienced damages including pain and suffering, mental anguish, physical impairment, and emotional torment,” the suit read.&nbsp; 
 
“There existed something sinister — a dark underbelly of crime, trafficking, forced labour, kidnapping, bribery, and exploitation. Combs is a danger to society, women, and children,” read the court filing from the accuser as reported by Page Six. The accuser lived in New York then and was invited to parties. Since he was an aspiring musician back then, he thought it was a great opportunity for a breakthrough in the industry and was shocked to meet Combs face-to-face.&nbsp; 
 
The lawsuit alleges Combs showed interest in Doe and offered him career advice. During their conversation, Combs made a sexual advance towards Doe, demanding that he expose himself. “Doe, feeling intimidated and pressured, complied with Combs' request.”

“Because of Combs’ power and notoriety, Plaintiff was afraid to report what had happened," the filing read.

Sean 'Diddy' Combs' minor accuser shares chilling details of the assault, provides pic to court

A nine-year-old boy is among the 120 people who have accused Sean 'Diddy' Combs of sexual assault and abuse. Houston-based attorney Tony Buzbee, who is defending the accusers, held a press conference on Tuesday (Oct 1) and revealed that Combs had sexually abused multiple minors.&nbsp;

Buzbee alleged one nine-year-old boy was sexually abused after he auditioned at the Bad Boy Records Studio in New York City. 
 
“Other boys were there to audition as well,” Buzbee alleged. “All of them were trying to land a record deal. All of them were minors. This individual (the 9-year-old) was sexually abused, allegedly by Sean Combs and several other people at the studio with the promise to both his parents and himself of getting a record deal.”

Around 120 individuals have filed civil claims against Combs, the Houston-based attorney has revealed. Twenty-five of the alleged victims are minors and according to Buzbee were "evenly divided between males and females." 
 
Buzbee said more than 55 per cent&nbsp;of the alleged victims filed reports to either the authorities or hospitals. 
 
The alleged victims have claimed that they were abused at Diddy's parties including ones that celebrated album releases and New Year's Eve, as well as "all white parties," "puppy parties" and sometimes even at auditions between 1991 and 2024.

Buzbee claimed many of the alleged victims were drug tested after the incident and the drug Xylazine, a horse tranquilliser known as "tranq," was found in their systems.

Diddy was arrested and charged with sex trafficking and racketeering last week. He has been detained and is currently being kept in isolation. He pleaded not guilty to the charges against him and will appear in court for his trial in early October.

Sean 'Diddy' Combs shares cell with Bankman-Fried, fears poisoning, had tragic phone calls with kids - Updates

Prince Harry’s partying days with Sean “Diddy” Combs have now come under the scanner as the latter faces prison time over a litany of shocking sexual assault and sex trafficking allegations. The former music mogul is currently facing sexual assault allegations in a case brought by one of his former producers, Rodney Jones.&nbsp;

In connection to the case, police raided Diddy’s two properties on March 26, both the Miami and Los Angeles homes of the rapper. It all looked like a scene out of an action film as armoured vehicles rounded out his homes and blocked the entire area. There were reports that Sean was trying to escape but those were quashed when the rapper calmly handled the situation. Authorities detained some people at the property with their hands bound by zip ties.

While Prince Harry is not accused of any wrongdoing, his proximity to the rapper at the time the latter was indulging in these alleged acts&nbsp;is being questioned. The former royal’s name popped up when he was mentioned in the suit by Rodney Jones.&nbsp;

Jones, who says he was groped, harassed, and threatened by Sean “Diddy” Combs, says in the suit that Diddy’s co-defendants were rewarded “for participating in and facilitating Combs’ sex trafficking venture” by getting “affiliation and access to Mr Combs’ popularity.” Jones first filed the suit in February.

There was another lawsuit in mid-November by&nbsp;R&amp;B vocalist Cassandra Ventura who accused Combs of subjecting her to physical abuse, sexual slavery and rape during a 10-year professional and romantic relationship.

The lawsuit cited violations of sex trafficking and human trafficking statutes.&nbsp;

As for Jones' lawsuit, he said, “Mr Combs was known for throwing the ‘best’ parties. Affiliation with, and or sponsorship of Mr Combs’ sex-trafficking parties garnered legitimacy and access to celebrities such as famous athletes, political figures, artists, musicians, and international dignitaries like British royal, Prince Harry.”

Prince Harry named in Sean 'Diddy' Combs sex trafficking lawsuit

A lawyer for music mogul Sean "Diddy" Combs thinks the rapper is being targeted by a "witch hunt" after civil lawsuits accused him of sexual misconduct and federal authorities raided two of his properties.

On March 26, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security said it had opened an investigation into hip-hop star Combs and searched his homes in the Miami area and Los Angeles. Aaron Dyer, an attorney for Combs, called the raids "a gross overuse of military-level force."

<h2>Police raided Sean "Diddy" Combs'&nbsp;homes in Miami and Los Angeles</h2>

Local television images showed an armoured vehicle and officers carrying rifles outside Combs' Los Angeles home. Authorities detained some people at the property with their hands bound by zip ties.

Combs cooperated with authorities, Dyer said, and neither he nor any family members have been arrested or had their travel restricted.

"This unprecedented ambush - paired with an advanced, coordinated media presence - leads to a premature rush to judgment of Mr. Combs and is nothing more than a witch hunt based on meritless accusations made in civil lawsuits," Dyer added.

The Homeland Security Department has not said what it is investigating about Combs and did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Dyer's remarks. The agency has broad jurisdiction to probe the illegal movement of people, goods, money, technology and contraband into, out of and throughout the United States, including sex trafficking.

<h2>How it started</h2>

It all started with a civil lawsuit filed in mid-November when the R&amp;B vocalist Cassandra Ventura accused Combs of subjecting her to physical abuse, sexual slavery and rape during a 10-year professional and romantic relationship.

The lawsuit cited violations of sex trafficking and human trafficking statutes. Ventura and Combs, who have used such monikers as P. Diddy, Puff Daddy and Diddy, settled the case under confidential terms. Representatives for Combs said at the time the settlement was "in no way an admission of wrongdoing".

The lawsuit was one of at least four civil complaints in recent months levelling sexual assault allegations against Combs. 
"There has been no finding of criminal or civil liability with any of these allegations. Mr. Combs is innocent and will continue to fight every single day to clear his name,” Dyer said.&nbsp;

Witch hunt? Sean 'Diddy' Combs' lawyer thinks so in wake of raids on his properties in sex abuse cases

Sean "Diddy" Combs is facing a series of civil lawsuits alleging a range of abusive behaviours, including sexual harassment, rape, nonconsensual pornography, and sex trafficking. The legal saga began in November 2023 when singer Cassie Ventura, Combs' former partner, filed a federal lawsuit alleging a pattern of physical and sexual abuse throughout their relationship.

Ventura claimed Combs controlled her life, subjected her to violent beatings, and forced her to have sex with other men while he watched and recorded. She also accused him of raping her in 2018. The lawsuit was settled within a day, with both parties agreeing to undisclosed terms.

Following Ventura's lawsuit, three more women and one man came forward with similar allegations against Combs. Liza Gardner accused Combs of sexually assaulting her in 1990 or 1991, while Joi Dickerson-Neal alleged he drugged and assaulted her in 1991.

Another anonymous woman, referred to as Jane Doe, accused Combs and his associates of gang-raping her in 2003 when she was 17 years old. Additionally, producer Rodney "Lil Rod" Jones accused Combs of sexual harassment, drugging, and threatening him.

Combs has denied all the accusations, calling them baseless and outrageous. His attorney, Benjamin Brafman, stated that the lawsuits aimed to tarnish Combs' reputation and were motivated by financial gain.

Sean "Diddy" Combs is facing a series of civil lawsuits alleging a range of abusive behaviours, including sexual harassment, rape, nonconsensual pornography, and sex trafficking. The legal saga began in November 2023 when singer Cassie Ventura, Combs' former partner, filed a federal lawsuit alleging a pattern of physical and sexual abuse throughout their relationship. Ventura claimed Combs controlled her life, subjected her to violent beatings, and forced her to have sex with other men while he watched and recorded. She also accused him of raping her in 2018. The lawsuit was settled within a day, with both parties agreeing to undisclosed terms. Following Ventura's lawsuit, three more women and one man came forward with similar allegations against Combs. Liza Gardner accused Combs of sexually assaulting her in 1990 or 1991, while Joi Dickerson-Neal alleged he drugged and assaulted her in 1991.
