Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs Faces Third Sexual Assault Lawsuit; R&B Star Aaron Hall Named in Suit

Jane Doe alleges that Combs and R&B star Aaron Hall took turns raping her and a friend in 1990 or 1991.

Another woman has accused Sean “Diddy” Combs and a fellow artist of sexual assault and rape in a lawsuit filed Nov. 23 under New York’s Adult Survivors Act, according to Deadline.

The latest anonymous plaintiff, identified as Jane Doe, alleges that Combs and R&B star Aaron Hall took turns raping her and a friend in 1990 or 1991, further claiming that Combs physically assaulted her again just days later, The Daily Beast reported.

In a New York Supreme Court filing obtained by Rolling Stone, an anonymous woman recounted her encounter with Diddy and Hall, which began at an MCA Records event in New York City. The lawsuit also named MCA and Geffen Records as additional defendants for their alleged role in enabling the assaults.

According to the legal documents, during the event, “Combs and Hall were very flirtatious and handsy with Jane Doe and her friend, offering them drinks throughout the night.” Subsequently, the group retired to Hall’s apartment, where “Jane Doe was offered more drinks and was coerced into having sex with Combs.”

Afterward, the lawsuit claims “Jane Doe laid in bed, shocked and traumatized. As she was in the process of getting dressed, Hall barged into the room, pinned her down, and forced Jane Doe to have sex with him.” Hall, a member of the R&B group Guy, known for pioneering the “New Jack Swing” sound, is implicated in the lawsuit.

These allegations come amidst a flurry of legal actions against high-profile figures, including Jamie Foxx, Axl Rose, and Cuba Gooding Jr., made possible by the one-year window provided by the Adult Survivors Act, allowing sexual assault plaintiffs to file civil claims irrespective of the statute of limitations. This window closed on Nov. 23.

Another lawsuit against Diddy was filed by Joi Dickerson-Neal on Nov. 22. Dickerson-Neal, then a Syracuse University student during the alleged 1991 assault, contended that Combs drugged and sexually assaulted her, later engaging in “revenge porn,” resulting in what she claims are “substantial and lifetime injuries.”

“This last-minute lawsuit is an example of how a well-intentioned law can be turned on its head,” said a spokesperson for Combs, who denied the allegations.
