The disturbing new accusations against Diddy come from over 120 people, including minors as young as 9 years old.
The lawyer of over 120 Sean “Diddy” Combs sexual assault accusers says he’ll soon reveal the names of several high-profile individuals who enabled the rapper’s alleged illegal activities, which included drugging and raping minors.
At a press conference Tuesday, Houston, Texas, based-attorney Tony Buzbee said the world will be shocked to learn the names on a long list of people who helped cover-up the disgraced Bad Boy Records CEO crimes.
“Many powerful people … many dirty secrets,” Buzbee stated, saying his law firm had “collected pictures, video, texts.”
“We will expose the enablers who enabled this conduct behind closed doors. We will pursue this matter no matter who the evidence implicates,” Buzbee stated.
He added his team would fully vet claims before revealing names.
“It’s a long list already, but because of the nature of this case, we are going to make sure damn sure we are right before we do that,” he noted, adding, “These names will shock you.”
Buzbee also claimed Diddy and others allegedly sexually assaulted a nine-year-old boy.
“This individual, who was 9 years old at the time, was taken to an audition in New York City with Bad Boy Records,” Buzbee said.
“This individual was sexually abused allegedly by Sean Combs and several other people at the studio in the promise to both his parents and to him himself of getting a record deal.”
“Other boys were there to audition as well,” he added. “All of them were trying to land a record deal. All of them were minors.”
Buzbee added he has medical records showing the boys were also drugged.
“Drugs were found in their system– weird drugs, drugs that you probably never heard of,” he said.
“One in particular that continues to pop up is a drug called Xylazine, or tranq, which based on our research is known as a horse tranquilizer.”
Diddy’s lawyers have denied allegations “that he sexually abused anyone, including minors.”
Watch the full press conference:
Buzbee, who represented victims of the 2010 DeepWater Horizon oil spill and Travis Scott’s deadly Astroworld Festival, said his clients are accusing Diddy of “violent sexual assault or rape, facilitated sex with a controlled substance, dissemination of video recordings, [and] sexual abuse of minors.”
The high-profile lawyer said he’s also had 3,000 accusers reach out to him from across the country, with 62% identifying as African American, and 25 claiming they were minors at the time of the abuse which occurred as early as 1991, according to NBC News.
The Texas lawyer’s statements to the media come as an attorney representing another Diddy accuser says she’s aware of someone trying to sell a “Diddy tape” featuring someone “more high-profile” than the rapper.
“There already have been tapes leaking around Hollywood being shopped around … but one particular person contacted me to shop a particular video they were in possession of and to contact the person who was in the video to see if they were interested in purchasing the video before it became public knowledge,” attorney Ariel Mitchell-Kidd told NewsNation host Ashleigh Banfield.
“I can tell the video was pornographic in nature… This was in his Atlanta home, and it does seem the person isn’t looking into the video. To me, it doesn’t seem like that person knows they’re being videotaped,” the lawyer added.
She said another accuser told her she’d had to stage an escape after the rapper came to the home of a friend and drugged and sexually assaulted her in 2018.
“She called me and told me about her assault and her escape,” the attorney told Banfield. “She was at a friend’s house who had industry ties, and Diddy decided to come to the house.”
“It led to her being served a drink. She started to feel woozy. Combs sexually assaulted her with an inanimate object,” the lawyer described. “And then directed another gentleman to sexually assault her while he watched and pleasured himself.”
The rapper was indicted earlier this month on federal sex trafficking and racketeering charges.
If the accusations against Diddy are true, he’s shaping up to be the entertainment industry’s Jeffrey Epstein, but how many more high-profile individuals will he take down with him – and will he ultimately meet the same fate behind bars as Epstein to keep their secrets hidden?
