Sean “Diddy” Combs Faces New Evidence in Sexual Assault Lawsuit, Attempts to Move Case to New Jersey

Sean “Diddy” Combs made headlines once again, but this time for a different reason. The hip-hop mogul fulfilled his $1 million pledge to Howard University at the Howard Homecoming Yardfest on October 20, 2023, in Washington, DC. The event was a celebration of his commitment to supporting higher education and empowering the next generation of leaders.

However, amidst the festivities, Diddy found himself embroiled in yet another legal battle. A woman named Liza Gardner filed a sexual assault lawsuit against him and Guy singer Aaron Hall, alleging misconduct that occurred over 30 years ago at Hall’s apartment after an MCA-hosted event. The suit was filed just before the expiration of the New York Adult Survivors Act, prompting Diddy’s lawyers to deny the claims and label them as a “money grab.”

Now, Gardner is seeking to move the lawsuit to New Jersey, citing new evidence provided by witnesses who claim to have photos and information that support her claims. This lawsuit is just one of four that Diddy is currently facing, including suits filed by producer Rodney “Lil Rod” Jenkins, Joi Dickerson-Neal, and a Jane Doe alleging gang rape.

Despite the legal challenges, Diddy remains committed to his philanthropic efforts, fulfilling his promise to Howard University and continuing to support education and empowerment initiatives. As the legal battle unfolds, the hip-hop mogul’s legacy is being tested, but his dedication to giving back and making a positive impact on society remains unwavering.
