Sean 'Diddy' Combs is facing a new wave of lawsuits filed on Monday in federal court in Manhattan, accusing him of sexual assault and rape spanning two decades, from 1995 to 2021. The six lawsuits involve allegations from four men and two women, including a 16-year-old boy who claims Combs sexually assaulted him at a 'White Party' in 1998. According to the lawsuit, Combs told the teenager that molestation was a 'rite of passage' to becoming a music star. Another male accuser alleges he was assaulted by Combs while working for Ecko Clothing in 2008. Lawyers for the accusers state that they are part of a group of more than 100 alleged victims. The lawsuits allege that Combs raped women, sexually assaulted men, and molested a minor over the course of two decades.
