EMBATTLED rapper Sean Diddy Combs has been accused of luring a 16-year-old girl into his car and raping her in a bombshell new lawsuit.

The teen was walking home from a babysitting job in New York City in 2000 when Combs allegedly rolled up in an SUV with two other men and convinced her to get in.

He said he would take her off the Manhattan streets and give her a ride home, the suit obtained by claims, but after getting in the car, she realized they weren't heading toward her place.

Terrified, the teen got visibly nervous, so Combs allegedly handed her a drink to help her calm down.

After taking a sip, the teen felt groggy and vaguely remembered being taken to some unknown location, according to the suit.

The next thing she remembers was coming to the lobby of the building where she lived.

Combs' lawyers blasted this latest suit, which joins a chorus of other accusers who say the rapper used his influence to sexually and psychologically abuse them.

The music mogul is currently in jail in New York City as he awaits trial for sex trafficking, racketeering, and other bombshell charges.

Most of the charges stem from his sex parties called freak-offs, where he took pictures and videos of high-profile guests engaging in perverse activities as blackmail, prosecutors say.

But despite the growing list of allegations, Combs' team says they're ready to prove his innocence in court.

"No matter how many lawsuits are filed, it won't change the fact that Mr. Combs has never sexually assaulted or sex trafficked anyone — man or woman, adult or minor," his team told TMZ.

"We live in a world where anyone can file a lawsuit for any reason.

"Fortunately, a fair and impartial judicial process exists to find the truth, and Mr. Combs is confident he will prevail in court."

What happened during Sean Combs' 'freak offs'?

Sean Combs' infamous drug-fueled freak offs, first revealed by his ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura's lawsuit in November 2023, have become a central narrative of the indictment, which alleges:

  • The music mogul "manipulated women to participate in highly orchestrated performances of sexual activity with male commercial sex workers."
  • Freak offs "occurred regularly, sometimes lasted multiple days, and often involved multiple commercial sex workers."
  • Combs "distributed a variety of controlled substances to victims, in part to keep the victims obedient and compliant."
  • He and the victims "typically received IV fluids to recover from the physical exertion and drug use" after the freak offs.
  • Cops "seized various Freak Off supplies, including narcotics and more than 1,000 bottles of baby oil and lubricant" from his homes in Los Angeles and Miami.
  • Combs "hit, kicked, threw objects at, and dragged victims, at times, by their hair," during and separate from the freak offs, which "often resulted in injuries that took days or weeks to heal."
  • He also used the "sensitive, embarrassing, and incriminating recordings" that he made during freak offs as "collateral to ensure the continued obedience and silence of the victims."

HAUNTING HISTORY

Combs, 55, and his staff organized perverse parties where sex workers were flown in from across the country to provide favors for high-profile guests, prosecutors claimed in an indictment.

Federal agents uncovered the sick scheme after raiding his homes in Miami and New York in early 2024 and finding thousands of bottles of baby oil allegedly used for the functions.

Combs was arrested in September 2024, and he's been wasting away in jail ever since.

Allegations in the indictment are eerily similar to accusations fired by Combs' ex, Cassie Ventura, in 2023.

She claimed in a suit that Diddy was physically and sexually abusive and allegedly forced her to take part in the freak-offs by plying her with drugs and alcohol.

That lawsuit was settled out of court, but many more suits have been filed against Combs that paint him as a manipulative and sadistic crime lord.

Diddy's downfall

By The U.S. Sun's Senior Reporter Forrest McFarland, who has been reporting on Diddy's legal battles for years

BEFORE Sean "Diddy" Combs' arrest in September, it was highly speculated that the rap star would find himself in custody after he was repeatedly hit with disturbing accusations - and had two of his mansions raided by the feds.

His mounting legal troubles finally came to a head on September 17, when he was charged with three federal counts, including sex trafficking, for allegedly forcing victims to take part in drug-fueled sex parties he called "Freak Offs."

Hours before his arrest, The U.S. Sun exclusively revealed the feds investigating Combs were secretly liaising with Tupac Shakur murder prosecutors on gangland activities.

The development also came after Combs was named 77 times in documents submitted by prosecutors in the Tupac murder case.

Aside from the Tupac probe, Combs was already facing a slew of lawsuits, including one he settled with his ex, Cassie Ventura, after she accused him of rape and abuse.

Disturbing hotel surveillance video from 2016 showed Combs chasing Cassie down and then punching, kicking, and beating her in a hallway.

Two months earlier, in March 2024, two of Combs' mansions were raided by federal investigators, who seized three AR-15s, drugs, and 1,000 bottles of lube which were part of his "Freak Off" supplies.

In addition to his federal criminal charges, Combs also faces a handful of lawsuits with allegations of sexual assault, harassment, and sex trafficking dating back to the early 1990s.

Music producer Rodney "Lil Rod" Jones filed one suit in February 2024, claiming Combs forced him to hire sex workers and participate in sex acts while he worked on his latest album.

Combs has denied any wrongdoing and pleaded not guilty to the federal sex trafficking charges against him, but his battle is far from over.

He faces life in prison if he's convicted on all counts.
