According to Forbes, three more men have filed lawsuits against Diddy. This comes after a man accused “Mo Money Mo Problems” rapper John Doe of abusing him and gave an anonymous interview to CNN. He is one of many who have filed civil lawsuits against the media giant. The outlet said Doe first filed the lawsuit against Combs in mid-October 2024, and now Doe is speaking out on camera about what he allegedly experienced. He claimed he was a victim of the infamous “White Party” event where Diddy allegedly “drugged and sodomized” him some 20 years ago.
As Paff awaits trial, it’s unclear whether he will take the stand in his defense, and the court of public opinion has already condemned him. John Doe detailed his ordeal in an interview with CNN, and it will be up to a judge whether to believe his story following one of the worst falls from grace in hip-hop history.
Anonymous reveals story of his alleged encounter with dad
According to the anonymous accuser, he was married to a woman when he was sexually assaulted in 2007. He told CNN he didn’t tell his wife about the incident at the time because he was ashamed. Doe claims he was introduced to Diddy after he was hired to work security at a famous white party at Diddy’s estate in East Hampton, New York. At the time, Doe was working for a private company. “The full gravity of it still haunts me to this day,” he said. “It affects everything you do for the rest of your life.”
Combs is accused of drugging and assaulting his alleged victim, which Doe said happened to him. In his complaint against Diddy, Doe said that night he drank “two alcoholic drinks” that “he believed contained GHB and ecstasy.” The documents further reveal that Diddy allegedly spoke to Doe after Doe became “very ill.” The man then said Combs forced him into his car, overpowered him and sodomized him against his will as he screamed for help.

Doe claimed he “couldn’t stand.” He added, “This was an amazing level of disability that I had never experienced before, and I felt powerless.” Doe told his supervisor about the incident, but the conversation resulted in him losing his job, the lawsuit states. . “He just brushed it off and said, ‘I’ll talk to him,'” Doe said. “After that, he stopped talking to me and he cut me out of everything.” He further stated that he had to “find a different field” to work because he could no longer find security work. He also claimed that an unnamed celebrity was present to witness the alleged attack, “a well-known person who saw what happened and thought it was funny.”
Inconsistencies in the original story
CNN pointed out that they found some discrepancies when investigating Jane Doe’s claims. Although he told the publication that the alleged attack occurred in 2007, his October 2024 lawsuit shows 2006. Not the Hamptons. Additionally, the original lawsuit claims Doe was never married. Now, Doe says his marriage is dissolving over the alleged attack. The complaint later changed, with Doe’s attorneys, including Tony Buzbee, claiming they missed details while trying to “rush the filing,” CNN reported.
Diddy’s team responded to the admission in a statement: “After [attorney Tony] Buzbee was exposed this week for pressuring clients to file false lawsuits against Mr. Coombs after public records showed — contrary to his accusations — that there were no white parties in the Hamptons in 2006. Bee amended the complaint, withdrew the allegations and now declares a different day and an entirely different year.
It’s unclear how long Doe will be able to remain anonymous, as many of the alleged victims have been asked to reveal their identities. “I lived a superficial life, a very quiet life,” Doe told CNN, saying he wanted to remain in the shadows. “I’d rather just keep a little bit of it. “Nothing can ever bring me back to the person I was before that night.
Buzbee claims Diddy had over 100 victims
Tony Buzbee has been outspoken on behalf of the victims who have come forward to tell Combs’ story. The lawyer reportedly told the BBC that he had received around 3,000 calls from members of the public regarding his numerous cases against Puff. However, he added that “realistically” out of the 300 or so people he vetted, his “final total will be ‘about 100 to 150 people.'” Following a press conference and public statement, Buzbee was accused of coercion so-called victim. He denies the allegation.
“This allegation is patently ridiculous. We will not pursue a case that we believe has no merit,” Buzbee told CNN. “We will not pressure others and there is no need to do so.” Most of Buzbee’s clients who opposed Combs have chosen to remain anonymous, although some names have surfaced as the scandal has progressed. The lawyer has reportedly filed more than 20 civil lawsuits, including one that also names Jay-Z (real name Sean Carter) for allegedly assaulting a 13-year-old girl after the MTV Video Music Awards more than 20 years ago . The Rock Country mogul immediately fired back in several statements, strongly denying that he assaulted anyone.
In addition, Carter’s legal team has reportedly asked the court to expedite the trial to clear his name as quickly as possible. Additionally, Hof took aim at Buzby, accusing his attorneys of trying to extort money rather than facts.
