Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Sean 'Diddy' Combs asks judge to release identities of accusers
Caption: Sean 'Diddy' Combs asks judge to release identities of accusers. The rapper's legal team submitted a letter to a Manhattan federal court judge on Tuesday in which they argued that they need to know the names of the alleged victims in order to prepare for his trial in May 2025. ”This case is unique, in part because of the number of individuals levying allegations against Mr. Combs due to his celebrity status, wealth, and the publicity of his previously settled lawsuit and the grand jury leaks and false inflammatory statements by the DHS agents, as outlined in our previous motion.” "This has had a pervasive ripple effect, resulting in a torrent of allegations by unidentified complainants, spanning from the false to outright absurd.” The letter was submitted a day after four men and two women sued the 54-year-old musician for sexual assault and rape on Monday. The lawyers claimed the "outrageous and deeply prejudicial allegations" were nothing more than "a publicity stunt”. "These accusations came on the heels of more than a dozen lawsuits previously filed and currently pending, several of which have already been discredited but only after irreparably damaging Mr. Combs' character and reputation.” "These swirling allegations have created a hysterical media circus that, if left unchecked, will irreparably deprive Mr. Combs of a fair trial, if they haven't already.” Combs was first sued by his ex-girlfriend Casandra 'Cassie' Ventura in November 2023. The rape and abuse lawsuit was settled the following day but it triggered a wave of sexual assault lawsuits against the musician.
