Jay-Z and Diddy Accused in Lawsuit of 13-Year-Old Rape
Jay-Z and Diddy Face Serious Allegations in New Lawsuit: Sean Carter, known as Jay-Z, has been accused in a civil lawsuit filed on Sunday of committing a heinous crime involving the rape of a 13-year-old girl in 2000. This accusation is made alongside Sean “Diddy” Combs, who was also implicated in these shocking claims. Jay-Z has labeled the lawsuit as a blatant “blackmail attempt” orchestrated by a so-called “fraud” lawyer, asserting his innocence and challenging the credibility of the allegations.
Details of the Allegations Unveiled in New York Federal Court: According to the complaint lodged in New York federal court, the unnamed plaintiff, referred to as Jane Doe, alleges that both Combs and Carter drugged and subsequently assaulted her during an after-party that followed the MTV Video Music Awards. This recent lawsuit is an updated version of a prior case that had initially only named Combs as the defendant, highlighting the seriousness and complexity of the allegations.
Attorney Tony Buzbee Leads the Charge Against Combs: The allegations have been brought forth by Tony Buzbee, a Texas-based attorney known for filing multiple lawsuits against Combs in recent months. Buzbee claims to represent numerous alleged victims, warning that he has dozens more cases lined up. Earlier this month, Buzbee himself faced a lawsuit for alleged extortion by an unnamed celebrity, who accused him of threatening to disclose “wildly false horrific allegations” against Diddy unless monetary compensation was provided.
Jay-Z Responds Firmly to the Allegations: In a statement released on Sunday evening, Jay-Z vehemently denied the allegations, describing the lawsuit as a “blackmail attempt” designed to force a settlement. He did not hold back in his criticism of Buzbee, labeling him a “fraud,” a “deplorable human,” and an “ambulance chaser in a cheap suit,” emphasizing his dismay at the serious nature of the claims against him.
Defending Integrity and Background: “You have made a terrible error in judgment thinking that all ‘celebrities’ are the same,” Carter asserted. “I’m not from your world. I’m a young man who made it out of the projects of Brooklyn. We uphold very strict codes and honor. We protect children, while you seem to exploit people for personal gain. Only your network of conspiracy theorists would buy into the absurd claims you have made against me, which, if not for the serious implications regarding harm to children, would be laughable.”
Looking Ahead to a Public Defense: “I look forward to showing you just how different I am,” Carter concluded, signaling his determination to fight back against these allegations.
Diddy Faces Multiple Abuse Allegations: Combs has recently been inundated with a surge of abuse allegations, which began with civil lawsuits and escalated to a shocking federal indictment in September. Prosecutors allege that he operated a vast criminal enterprise for years, driven by his need for “sexual gratification.” The wave of accusations represents a significant legal challenge for Combs, who now finds himself at the center of various legal battles.
Buzbee Claims to Represent Numerous Victims: Following the indictment, attorney Buzbee held a press conference where he claimed to represent 120 individuals who have allegedly suffered due to Combs’ actions, threatening a barrage of litigation. He has since initiated over a dozen lawsuits, each one representing unnamed Doe plaintiffs, highlighting the extensive nature of the accusations against Combs.
New Allegations of Assault During After-Party: In the latest lawsuit, Buzbee characterizes Jay-Z as a “longtime friend and collaborator” of Combs. He asserts that the alleged victim was driven to the after-party where she was coerced into signing a non-disclosure agreement. After consuming a drink that left her feeling “woozy” and “lightheaded,” she reportedly went into a bedroom to rest, where Buzbee claims she was assaulted by both stars.
Witnesses Ignored the Alleged Assault: The lawsuit states, “Another celebrity stood by and watched as Combs and Carter took turns assaulting the minor.” It is alleged that many others present at the after-party did nothing to intervene during the assault, raising serious questions about the accountability of those in attendance.
Jay-Z Questions the Nature of the Allegations: In his response, Jay-Z raised a critical question about why such severe allegations had not been pursued as a criminal case: “Whomever would commit such a crime against a minor should be locked away, would you not agree?” He firmly stated that he would never settle with Buzbee, vowing to “expose” him as a fraud in a very public manner.
Concerns for Family Amidst Legal Struggles: “My only heartbreak is for my family,” Carter expressed. He conveyed that he and his wife would have to explain to their children, particularly one at an age where peers may bring up the press coverage, the unfortunate realities of cruelty and greed in the world. “I mourn yet another loss of innocence,” he lamented, reflecting on the personal toll of these allegations.
