A timeline of the mounting sexual-misconduct allegations against Sean 'Diddy' Combs
Rodney Jones Jr. is the fifth person to accuse Sean 'Diddy' Combs of sexual assault in the last 5 months. Here's a timeline of Combs' allegations.
- A music producer accused Sean 'Diddy' Combs of sexual assault, according to The New York Times.
- Combs has faced numerous lawsuits last year alleging sexual misconduct.
- Here's a timeline of all the allegations.
Homes belonging to Sean 'Diddy' Combs were raided by federal officials on Monday, with multiple reports indicating the search was related to a sex trafficking probe.
Department of Homeland Security officials have not specified why the homes were searched. The Associated Press and Los Angeles Times reported that the raids were part of a sex trafficking investigation, according to unnamed law enforcement sources cited by the outlets.
Combs is facing multiple sexual assault allegations, most recently from Rodney Jones Jr, also known as Lil Rod, who filed a lawsuit against Combs in Manhattan federal court on February 26.
Jones accused Combs of repeated unsolicited groping and of forcing him to perform sexual acts on prostitutes.
At the time, the complaint said, the two were working on Combs' latest album, "The Love Album: Off the Grid." The complaint requests a trial by jury against Combs for multiple offenses, including sexual assault.
Shawn Holley, Combs' attorney, denied the allegation in a message to Business Insider.
"We have overwhelming, indisputable proof that his claims are complete lies," Holley said of Jones' lawsuit.
"Our attempts to share this proof with Mr. Jones' attorney, Tyrone Blackburn, have been ignored, as Mr. Blackburn refuses to return our calls," Holley said. "We will address these outlandish allegations in court and take all appropriate action against those who make them."
Combs' lawsuit troubles began in November 2023 when his ex-girlfriend Casandra "Cassie" Ventura accused Combs of raping and abusing her during their decadelong relationship. That suit was settled quickly, but three more women stepped forward over the following weeks.
