Woman Claims Diddy Drugged Her With Ketamine, Left Her Injured During Sexual Abuse

A Florida woman accused Sean “Diddy” Combs of sexually assaulting her multiple times over the last four years, exerting control over her with harassment and surveillance and by forcing her to take drugs, according to a lawsuit filed Friday in New York City.

The woman, a business owner and model who is identified in the lawsuit only as Jane Doe, is the latest to make shocking claims of sexual abuse against the music mogul, who is also facing federal criminal charges. An attorney representing Combs did not immediately respond to HuffPost’s request for comment on Friday, but he has denied claims in previous lawsuits and has pleaded not guilty to the federal charges of trafficking and racketeering.

Separately from the multiple lawsuits that have been filed, attorneys told HuffPost they represent more than 50 people who are also pursuing legal action against Combs.

The Jane Doe who filed her suit Friday said she met Combs overseas in the fall of 2020, and they continued to see each other until 2024, according to the complaint obtained by HuffPost.

During this time, Combs arranged for Doe to travel to his homes in multiple cities, including Los Angeles, New York and Miami, at least once per month, and they would have sexual encounters, according to the lawsuit.

But her lawyers said that Doe did not travel of her own volition and instead was coerced and harassed by Combs and his associates. Doe would be picked up by a driver before she agreed to travel, the complaint said. This allegedly happened so often that Doe no longer believed she had a choice but to go to Combs.

“Powerful figures in the entertainment industry have long exploited aspiring artists and fans,” Marie Napoli, an attorney who, along with Joseph L. Ciaccio, represents Doe, told HuffPost in a statement. “Recent high-profile lawsuits aim to hold these celebrities accountable, potentially transforming industry practices and providing justice for victims.”

The lawsuit alleges a series of troubling incidents over the four years Doe and Combs were in contact. He constantly pressured Doe to involve other men and women in the sexual encounters in spite of her objections, forced her to take substances, and forced her to watch abuse and slap other women, according to the lawsuit.

Combs and his associates are accused in the suit of maintaining their control over Doe by using harassing language, drugging her against her will, recording her sexual encounters without her permission and cutting her “allowance.”

“No one is above the law,” Napoli said. “Fame and wealth do not protect Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs from serious allegations of sex trafficking and abuse.”

The lawyers also said that in spring 2022, Doe woke up in Combs’ Miami home and found she had been injured, including a bite mark on her heel.

In July 2022, Doe alleged that while at Combs’ Los Angeles home, he compelled her to ingest a substance she suspected was ketamine, which caused her to lose consciousness throughout the night.

Doe found out shortly after that night that she was pregnant and informed Combs, according to the lawsuit. Doe later had a miscarriage and did not speak to Combs or his associates for the next three months, until he began harassing her to travel to him again, according to the lawsuit.

From that point until July 2024, Doe was forced to “perform a show” for Combs every time she visited, and he would “ply her with alcohol and substances until she passed out,” according to the lawsuit. She allegedly woke up every night after those visits with bruises and injuries but did not remember how she sustained them.

The lawsuit alleged that as a result of her encounters with Combs and his associates, Doe had suffered and will continue to suffer from severe emotional distress, monetary damages, physical injury and pain. She filed the lawsuit under a pseudonym to try to avoid further pain, her lawyers said.

“Plaintiff fears embarrassment and further psychological damage if her identity as a victim of sexual abuse became public knowledge,” the complaint said.
