As The Shade Room previously reported, the music mogul made headlines in November 2023 when his ex-girlfriend, Casandra “Cassie” Ventura accused him of sexual trafficking, abuse, and assault. The pair ultimately settled the suit privately as Diddy denied the accusations from his former partner.
In the months that followed, the music mogul became the subject of a plethora of lawsuits and allegations . Some accused the producer and rapper of group sexual assault, while another accused him of sexual assault and harassment against a former employee .
In March, Diddy’s homes were raided by federal authorities , reportedly in connection to an “ongoing investigation.”
Then, in May, footage surfaced of Diddy assaulting Cassie in a California hotel hallway in March 2016, per The Shade Room . In the footage, Diddy could be seen running down a hallway in pursuit of Cassie. Additionally, he’s seen throwing her to the floor, kicking her, and throwing objects in her direction.
Later that month, Diddy posted a video message apologizing to the public for his actions, per The Shade Room . In the clip, the music mogul explained that he “hit rock bottom” and his behavior was “inexcusable.”
Furthermore, in May, reports initially surfaced asserting that a grand jury had been composed to hear from the producer’s alleged sexual misconduct victims, per The Shade Room .
Most recently, Diddy has been sued for sexual abuse by his former Bad Boy artist and Diddy—Dirty Money bandmate, Dawn Richard. Richard alleges that she witnessed the music mogul’s abuse of Cassie. Additionally, Richard even asserted that Diddy initiated inappropriate conduct with her.
Richard has not spoken out since the news of her filing went public. However, she and Diddy’s bandmate Kalenna Harper have shared her own perspective on Richard’s lawsuit. Furthermore, per Rolling Stone , the music mogul has reportedly denied the allegations listed in each case against him.
