US rap mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs accused of sexual misconduct by 120 people: lawyer

An attorney said he represents 120 accusers who have made sexual misconduct allegations against Sean “Diddy” Combs, the hip-hop mogul awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges.

Houston attorney Tony Buzbee said he expects lawsuits to be filed next month, with most lawsuits expected to be filed in New York and Los Angeles.

Buzbee described that the victims were 60 men and 60 women and that 25 were minors at the time of the alleged misconduct. One person claimed he was 9 years old when he was abused, Buzbee said. The allegations relate to a period from 1991 to this year.

“This type of sexual assault, sexual abuse and sexual exploitation should not be happening in the United States or anywhere else. This should never have taken this long. This behavior has left scores of people hurt, scared and scarred,” Buzbee said at a news conference Tuesday.
