In recent court filings this week, attorneys representing Sean "Diddy" Combs vehemently denied the allegations made in a gang rape lawsuit from last year, where he was accused of gang-raping a 17-year-old girl in 2003, per The Daily Beast.

Sean Combs' legal response, obtained by The Daily Beast, asserts that he was never involved in any form of misconduct, sexual or otherwise, related to the plaintiff, identified as "Ms. Doe."

The response contends that the allegations against Combs are entirely fictional, emphasizing his lack of awareness and denial of causing any harm to the plaintiff.

The Diddy gang rape case, the fourth sexual assault suit filed against Combs in 2023, alleges that he, along with music executive Harve Pierre and an unnamed defendant, engaged in sex trafficking, provided drugs and alcohol, and subsequently raped the plaintiff in a bathroom at Sean Combs' studio.

The accuser claims lasting emotional distress for two decades after an alleged incident.

Diddy's defense argues the absence of evidence due to time passage hampers the ability to address essential aspects of the gang rape accusation, affecting witness identification and recollections.

Sean 'Diddy' Combs Challenges Lawsuit

Diddy and his legal team raise several challenges to the gang rape lawsuit, including concerns about the timing of the filing and the authenticity of the accompanying color photographs, according to Rolling Stone.

One photo, showing the plaintiff sitting on Combs' lap, is disputed for its context, genuineness, and accuracy.

The legal response argues that the plaintiff's decision to wait over two decades to file the complaint has prejudiced Combs, hindering his ability to defend himself fully and fairly.

Additionally, Sean Combs challenges the validity of the Victims of Gender-Motivated Violence Act (GMVA), under which the lawsuit was brought, asserting that it is unconstitutional.

Diddy has recently enlisted the legal expertise of Bobbi C. Sternheim and Shawn Holley to strengthen his defense.

Harve Pierre, named as a co-defendant in the Diddy gang rape case, submitted his own response denying any participation in the alleged sexual assault and refuting witnessing such acts.

Combs' company, Bad Boy Entertainment, seeks a dismissal, arguing that amendments expanding the GMVA's scope to corporate defendants were added in 2022, rendering them inapplicable to Diddy gang rape case.

Details of Alleged Gang Rape Lawsuit

The plaintiff claims that Pierre forced her to perform oral sex, after which Combs and Pierre provided drugs and alcohol, impairing her ability to give consent, The Guardian reports.

The alleged assault took place in a New York studio bathroom, involving Sean Combs and an unidentified third individual.

Sean Combs' legal team contests a photo depicting the plaintiff on his lap, questioning its authenticity.

They also express concern over the two-decade gap between the incident and the Diddy gang rape case, arguing that evidence that could have been available earlier may now be compromised or lost.

Diddy faced three other sexual assault allegations in late 2003.

One case, brought by ex-girlfriend Cassie, was settled quickly.

Two others, filed under the Adult Survivors Act, involved accusations from Joi Dickerson-Neal and an unnamed woman.

These cases, both alleging sexual assault in the early '90s, are yet to reach a settlement or judgment.

In response to the latest allegations, Diddy released a statement decrying the attacks on his character and reputation, portraying them as efforts to tarnish his legacy for financial gain.

The legal battle continues, with both parties standing firm on their positions.
