Sean “Diddy” Combs has sued a grand jury witness who claims to have seen video of the disgraced rap mogul allegedly sexually assaulting eight celebrities, including two who looked underage.
The $50 million defamation suit filed against music producer Courtney Burgess claims Burgess invented the videos, which he and his lawyer Ariel Mitchell-Kidd have discussed in several interviews. One of those aired on NewsNation, which was also named in the suit.
The “Bad Boy for Life” artist was arrested in September on suspicion of sex trafficking and racketeering for allegedly forcing women to participate in days-long sex parties he dubbed “freak-offs.” Combs and his lawyers have denied the charges.
