AS New York's Adult Survivors Act expired Nov. 24, women rushed forward with accusations of assault. Sean "Diddy" Combs was among those in the hot seat when his ex Cassie Ventura alleged there was "abuse, violence and sex trafficking" - including forcing her to engage in sexual acts with male prostitutes while he watched - during their 2007 to 2018 relationship. The rapper quickly settled for an unspecified sum, with R&B singer Cassie, 37, stating, "I have decided to resolve this matter amicably on terms that I have some level of control."
A lawyer for Diddy said the settlement "does not in any way undermine his flat-out denial of the claims." But he wasn't off the hook yet. Two more women filed suit against the Bad Boy records honcho. Joi Dickerson-Neal accused the 54-year-old of drugging and raping her when she was a college student in 1991, while a Jane Doe alleged that he and a pal took turns raping her 30 years ago. Calling the claims "fabricated," Diddy's attorney dismissed the suits as "money grabs."
