NBC News reports that Jay-Z has been accused of raping a 13-year-old girl with Diddy in 2000, according to a civil lawsuit.
Jay-Z (Shawn Carter) and Sean “Diddy” Combs. An anonymous accuser, identified as “Jane Doe,” filed a lawsuit alleging that the two men sexually assaulted her in 2000 when she was 13 years old. The claims were made under New York’s Victims of Gender-Motivated Violence Protection Act and seek unspecified damages.
Key Points:
1. Allegations:
The accuser claims she was invited to an MTV Video Music Awards after-party by a limousine driver who worked for Combs.
At the party, she says she was drugged and subsequently assaulted by Combs and Carter while an unnamed female celebrity watched.
The lawsuit alleges that Combs and Carter raped her, with further details indicating she managed to resist one aspect of the assault before escaping and calling her father.
2. Legal Actions:
The lawsuit was originally filed in October 2024 against Combs and later amended to include Carter.
Combs is already facing federal charges of racketeering and sex trafficking, with his trial set for May 2025.
3. Responses:
Carter denied the accusations in a public statement, describing them as “idiotic” and urging the accuser to file criminal charges for justice.
Combs’ legal team dismissed the claims as fabrications intended to extort money.
Both parties maintain confidence in their exoneration through the judicial process.
4. Context:
The accuser’s attorney, Tony Buzbee, has filed multiple lawsuits against Combs involving similar allegations.
The allegations have caused significant public and media attention due to the high-profile nature of the accused individuals.
This case remains a developing story, with both sides preparing for legal battles in court.
