Tony Buzbee, principal attorney at Buzbee Law Firm, said: “Our law firm currently has 120 clients to pursue civil court cases against Sean Diddy Combs.” said. said During a press conference on Tuesday.
Tuesday's press conference was the first time Buzbee released details about the upcoming lawsuit against Combs and his associates.
“Although most of these events and incidents occurred at parties, usually after-parties, or album release parties, New Year's Eve parties, Fourth of July parties, what they call 'puppy parties,' all-white parties. , some of these events occurred at the audition,'' Buzbee explained.
The lawyer added that the victims were “young people, people who wanted to break into the industry, who were coerced into doing this type of thing with the promise of becoming stars and listening to Sean Combs tapes.” .
Shockingly, Buzbee revealed that 25 of the 120 alleged victims were minors at the time of the incident, the youngest being just nine years old, adding that the “period of the alleged incident is extremely It's spacious,” he added. From 1991 to 2024.
“Some of this behavior occurred at well-known venues in New York City. Some of this behavior occurred in the private residences of people we all know. Some of this behavior occurred in the private residences of people we all know. , also occurred in a hotel that we are all familiar with,” the lawyer said.
Buzbee added that “more than 55% of victims filed police or hospital reports” at the time of the incident, and some contacted the FBI.
“Many of you came here thinking or hoping that I might start naming names. [other than Combs]. That day will come, but not today,” the lawyer asserted, adding that there was “already a long list” of names that would be “shocking”.
Buzbee explained that these people either participated in the incident, watched in vain, or encouraged it.
Buzbee detailed other defendants who will be named soon.
These defendants include not only individuals but also corporate entities that ultimately benefited from this culture and behavior. I'm considering banks, pharmaceutical companies, and hotels. We know that many of these people were paid in cash. They were usually paid 10 grand in cash and told to leave.
In addition to Mr. Combs, other defendants include:
Anyone who was involved in the assault or exploitation, participated in any way in such behavior, encouraged or facilitated this behavior, was present in the room and saw it happening but made no effort to stop it, or the venue. or the venue owner, who knew what was going on and couldn't stop it, or who knew about the behavior and profited from it but did nothing to report it or stop it. on any person or entity that did not, and on any person or entity that concealed or cooperated in concealing it.
“I think there are countless people who are extremely nervous,” Buzbee said. “I think there are a lot of people right now who are desperately searching for their memories while deleting texts and data.”
Buzbee also explained that this is not a class action lawsuit.
“A class action lawsuit is when one or two people file a lawsuit on behalf of a group. That's different,” the lawyer said. “These cases will be individual cases. Each case will live and die on its own merits.”
“These lawsuits will be filed separately, with one plaintiff facing each of the defendants involved in the lawsuit. One lawsuit may only sue Sean Combs, but there are others as well. “You can sue multiple people. You can sue a lot of different people in one lawsuit,” Buzbee added.
The lawyer encouraged other victims to come forward.
“If you go out there and are a victim, you are not alone. There is strength in numbers. You can seek redress and you can get justice. We are here to help you. You can help, and we will help you,” Buzbee said.
He added that his company is already “collecting photos, videos and texts.”
“We will confirm the venue and dates,” Buzbee said. “We want to substantiate that the claims being made have merit and legitimacy. We currently have former detectives from the Houston Police Department's Major Crimes Unit on staff who help review each claim. Thank you.”
