Music mogul Sean "Diddy" Combs has been hit with two more sexual assault lawsuits, adding to the growing number of civil cases filed against him since his September arrest.
One of the suits was filed by a Jane Doe, while an Oklahoma woman, LaTroya Grayson, filed the other, in which she sought damages of $15 million.
Sean "Diddy" Combs' lawyers have dismissed Grayson's suit, describing it as "pure fiction" while also maintaining that the rapper has "never sexually assaulted anyone or engaged in sex trafficking."
One Of The Victims Claimed She Was Raped At A Diddy White Party
Two additional lawsuits against Diddy surfaced this Friday, adding to the rapper's mounting legal woes.
In one of the suits, Oklahoma woman LaTroya Grayson claimed that she was raped during one of the rapper's infamous White Party in 2006.
According to TMZ, the alleged victim claims she drank "less than two premade drinks" at the party and soon began feeling sick, which made her head to the restroom.
It was there she believed she lost consciousness, as her next memory was finding herself in a hospital.
When she awoke, she found her "shirt was ripped, her underwear was missing, she was not wearing any shoes, and the money she had traveled with was stolen.
Grayson went on to say that she could only conclude that she was "robbed," drugged, and "assaulted" based on the appearance of her body.
She also shared that her belief was further confirmed when she received a threatening call from an anonymous female caller.
The Other Victim Claimed Diddy Raped Her At A Charity Basketball Game
The second suit against Diddy was filed by Jane Doe, who alleged that the rapper raped her during a 1991 basketball game she attended with a friend.
According to the alleged victim, she had entered the venue early after persuading a guard and was later brought to a gym locker room office that Diddy was using as a dressing room for the event.
She claimed she did not recognize the rapper but asked him to help her locate the male rapper friend who had invited her to the game.
Diddy reportedly agreed to assist her but then offered her a plastic cup containing what he claimed was Coca-Cola.
After taking a small sip, she immediately felt woozy, and moments later, the rapper began fondling her. He then pushed her down, ripped off her underwear, and raped her.
The woman further alleged that Diddy threatened her after the assault when she told him she would inform her rapper friend about his actions.
Diddy's Attorneys Slammed Okhlohoma Woman's Rape Accusation
In response to Grayson's claim that she was raped at a Diddy White Party, his attorneys issued a statement absolving the rapper of any blame and slamming Grayson's allegations.
"Mr. Combs has never sexually assaulted anyone or engaged in sex trafficking. Ms. Grayson admits she has no memory of the events alleged in her complaint, does not know who was supposedly involved, and has never spoken to Mr. Combs," they wrote in the statement.
The attorneys also described the allegations as "pure fiction" while reiterating their previous stance that Diddy remains confident in his ability to prove his innocence in court.
They said, "As we've said before, Mr. Combs cannot respond to every baseless lawsuit and lawyer-driven money grab. He has faith in the judicial process, in which fact will be separated from opportunistic fabrications like these."
Diddy to Remain in Detention Over Christmas Ahead of May Trial
In the meantime, Diddy is expected to spend Christmas in jail after voluntarily withdrawing his bail appeal.
The rapper had filed the appeal after being denied bail for a third time following his September arrest on charges of sex trafficking, racketeering, and transportation for prostitution.
According to his lawyers, the rapper remains "fit" and "healthy" despite his situation, contrary to claims that he had lost weight, per the Daily Mail.
They also shared that he is "fully focused on his defense" for next year's trial, which is scheduled for May.
Diddy's lawyers noted, "He has been very active, remains in good spirits, and, as always, he was happy to see his children."
The Rapper Appeared 'Astonishingly Thinner' And 'Greyer' During His Latest Court Appearance
Diddy has been held at a Brooklyn jail since his arrest, and apparently, being locked up in detention has taken a physical toll on him.
In a video, Law & Crime reporter Elizabeth Millner made shocking remarks about the rapper's recent court appearance.
The journalist revealed that Diddy "appeared just astonishingly thinner" and "appeared greyer a little bit."
"A lot different from the luxury lifestyle that he was living before, but he appeared very noticeably thinner, and maybe being locked up in detention is starting to wear on him," she added, per Page Six.
