The alleged victims are men and women, ranging in age from nine to 38 at the time of the attacks. Combs’ lawyer says the music mogul looks forward to proving his innocence.
A team of lawyers has announced it would be filing more than 100 sexual assault lawsuits against Sean Combs, a massive legal action that appears to have few if any precedents in the #MeToo era.
Plaintiffs will also be represented by Andrew Van Arsdale, who previously represented hundreds of victims in a sexual abuse lawsuit against the Boy Scouts of America. He called the forthcoming filings “unprecedented in scope” in an interview withequal number of men and women, who ranged in age from nine to 38 at the time of the attacks. The alleged assaults span a 20-year period in the 2000s and 2010s, when Combs was at the height of his celebrity.
“The names that we’re going to name, assuming our investigators confirm and corroborate what we’ve been told, are names that will shock you,” he added. “I’m talking here about not just the cowardly but complicit bystanders, that is those people that we know watched this behaviour occur and did nothing. And I’m talking about the people that participated, encouraged it, egged it on. They know who they are.
