Tony Buzbee Sued For Assault While Representing Diddy Accusers

November 21, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Tony Buzbee has become one of the key players in the Diddy saga. The attorney has taken on a staggering 120 plus clients who allege they were assaulted by Diddy at various points. Buzbee even launched a hotline so that other alleged victims could come forward with their stories of the Bad Boy founder. According to TMZ, though, Buzbee, has found himself in legal hot water. The attorney was sued for assault by an unnamed woman on November 21. The woman, going by Jane Doe, claims the assault took place several years ago.

Jane Doe claimed that she was in a public place with Tony Buzbee when the attorney flew into a rage. She alleges Buzbee pushed a flute of champagne into her face, which chipped her tooth. She also says she has hospital and dental records to support her alleged injury. The allegations don’t stop there. Doe accused Tony Buzbee of malpractice, and royally botching the divorce case that she initially hired him to handle. She went as far as to say that the attorney cost her millions of dollars in the long run. “Buzbee is a hypocrite,” says Doe’s lawyer, Jeremy Bohrer. “Nothing worse than when a black hat masquerades as a white hat.”

Tony Buzbee Called The Allegation “Crazy Fiction”

Unsurprisingly, Tony Buzbee is denying the allegations. The attorney claims that Jane Doe’s suit has no basis in truth. “I would ask if the lawyer bringing this silly case is friends with a lawyer from the firm that brought the other [extortion] case,” he told TMZ. “All this will be exposed soon.” Buzbee dispensed with the niceties while he was at it. “That’s crazy fiction,” he added. “Like really crazy. Like ridiculously crazy.” This is not the first time Tony Buzbee’s character has been called into question. Diddy’s legal team has attempted to present the attorney as using the Diddy case to boost his own celebrity.

After Buzbee set up the aforementioned “Diddy hotline,” the mogul’s team issued a statement criticizing it. “The press conference and 1-800 number that preceded today’s barrage of filings were clear attempts to garner publicity,” they claimed. “Combs and his legal team have full confidence in the facts, their legal defences, and the integrity of the judicial process.” Tony Buzbee, meanwhile, intends to close the book on this new lawsuit. He told TMZ that he will not tolerate defamation or bullying through external forces.

Diddy Faces Sodomy Allegation From “RoboCop” Stuntman

November 20, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Diddy is facing several new lawsuits as of Wednesday morning, with one accusing him of allegedly drugging and sexually assaulting a man identified as “John Doe” in New York in 2001. The claim, filed by attorney Tony Buzbee, alleges that the man, who once worked as a stuntman on RoboCop, met with the Bad Boy mogul at a hotel near Central Park for what was believed to be a music video audition. After consuming a Diet Coke, John Doe alleges he blacked out. He allegedly woke up to Diddy sodomizing him with one of his bodyguards and another man in the room.

John Doe says he fled the hotel in shock but left behind his beloved RoboCop stuntman jacket. He never saw it again. “Once back at home, Plaintiff tried to put the event out of his mind, but was reminded of it when he painfully defecated a used condom and realized he was bleeding rectally. When the bleeding did not stop for a couple of days, Plaintiff visited a local clinic and then a proctologist, who repaired Plaintiff’s a*** with a laser procedure,” the complaint reads, as caught by AllHipHop.

As for damages, John Doe alleges he sought medical treatment for rectal bleeding and a broken tooth. He also says he dealt with alleged emotional trauma. Diddy’s already repeatedly denied all of the allegations he’s faced over the last year. In a statement previously provided to CNN, his team slammed Tony Buzbee’s “barrage of lawsuits” as “shameless publicity stunts designed to extract payments from celebrities who fear having lies spread about them, just as lies have been spread about Mr. Combs.”

Diddy currently resides at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn. Authorities arrested him on charges of alleged sex trafficking and racketeering back in September. He’s already pleaded not guilty. His trial will kick off on May 5 of next year.

Tony Buzbee Is Livid Following Recent Extortion Allegations From Diddy Affiliate

November 18, 2024 by newhiphopnews

It sounds like the “high profile individual” poked the bear earlier today, so to speak. According to an update from TMZ, Tony Buzbee is firing back following a recent lawsuit against him. This unknown person claims to have been close with Diddy for years. This individual sent in a suit to the L.A. County Superior Court Monday morning against Buzbee for alleged extortion. Whether or not these allegations turn out to be true will come with time, but the Doe’s legal documents arrived a fishy time.

In Tubi’s recent documentary surrounding Diddy’s arrest, Buzbee said he was looking to expose many big names outside of the mogul. The Houston lawyer claimed to have already sent out demand letters looking for money. But if these Diddy affiliates don’t respond then lawsuits are coming. This Jane Doe seems to either trying to get under Buzbee’s skin, or he has an actual case against him. Those results will come later. For now, though, the man representing over 120 alleged victims of Diddy’s is ticked off and then some.

Tony Buzbee Might Expose Everyone Following This Lawsuit

Buzbee spoke with TMZ, and he’s making sure he nor his clients will be silenced. “We won’t allow the powerful and their high-dollar lawyers to intimidate or silence sexual assault survivors.” Overall, he feels that this person’s suit is a joke and that they are taking blatant advantage of the system. In addition, he’s dismissing the “high profile individual’s” extortion allegations.

Buzbee says that he did send in a demand letter to a lawyer in NY representing the Jane Doe “seeking a confidential settlement on behalf of 2 clients instead of a lawsuit.” However, he affirms that no money requests nor threats were made on his behalf. Buzbee then capped off his feelings about the suit, emphatically stating, “I am a U.S. Marine. I won’t be silenced or intimidated. Neither will my clients.” Lastly, things may be taking a major turn as he has also seriously considering sharing more information the demand letters.

“High Profile Individual” Tied To Diddy Files Lawsuit Against Tony Buzbee For Alleged Extortion

November 18, 2024 by newhiphopnews

At the end of last week, a report surrounding Tony Buzbee was making some noise. For those who aren’t familiar, he’s the lawyer representing over 120 alleged victims of Diddy’s. He was essentially issuing a major warning for other celebrities who had any sort of connection to music mogul. Particularly, those in relation to the alleged “Freak Offs” who did nothing to stop the alleged acts of sexual assault and more he feels should be held just as accountable as Diddy. This information arose following the release of the Tubi documentary The Downfall Of Diddy: Inside The Freak-Offs.

Buzbee claimed in it that he already sent out demand letters asking for large sum of money. However, if they don’t comply with those demands, hefty lawsuits could be coming. Well, TMZ reports a “high profile individual” is filing a lawsuit against Tony Buzbee for this alleged extortion. This person claims they were close with Diddy and attended many functions with him. The Jane Doe alleges Buzbee is “shamelessly attempting to extort exorbitant sums from him.” Overall, the lawsuit contains “wildly false horrific allegations,” Doe says.

Specifically, they are “entirely fabricated and malicious allegations of sexual assault.” The docs go on, “including multiple incidents of rape of a minor, both male and female.” Furthermore, the documents allege these acts occurred at Diddy’s parties. This will be an interesting side story, as the Houston lawyer’s future in this case against the Bad Boy Records founder could be bleak.

The lawsuit against Tony Buzbee was filed by the Jane Doe himself this morning to the L.A. County Superior Court. Quinn Emanuel will be the “high profile individual’s” representation. It’s one the most highly regarded law firms in the United States. Diddy’s future doesn’t look great either, but with Buzbee potentially running into some serious trouble, a decent chunk of allegations could be tossed.

Lawyer Suing Diddy Threatens Other Celebrities To Pay Up Or Face A Lawsuit

November 14, 2024 by newhiphopnews

The Diddy allegations brought up other unnamed celebrities in addition to Sean Combs and his alleged sex trafficking crimes as proposed by federal prosecutors. However, there are even more famous faces allegedly tied to the civil suits against him for alleged sexual assault and other accusations. We don’t know who any of them are beyond some supposed pictures, testimonies, descriptions, and personal recollections. But attorney Tony Buzbee is coming for them all. For those unaware, he’s the lawyer representing over 120 alleged victims against the Bad Boy mogul, and he wants to target other superstars who attended his alleged “freak-off” parties.

Tony Buzbee remarked this during his appearance on TMZ‘s Tubi documentary, The Downfall Of Diddy: Inside The Freak-Offs. He claims that if celebrities witnessed alleged sexual abuse and drugging – but did not do anything to report it, prevent it, or condemn it – then they are just as liable as the alleged perpetrators of these crimes. According to the attorney, he already has more famous people in his sights, sending demand letters to some of them that urge them to cough up cash or face a huge public lawsuit that could tarnish their reputation. It sounds like some sort of preliminary settlement, but that’s just a claim.

This wasn’t the only thing that this Diddy documentary discussed when it comes to other celebrities’ alleged involvement. Ray J also alleged that various superstars reached out to him and revealed their efforts to settle with alleged victims before their case can gather any momentum. In fact, Ray’s been a big anti-Puff advocate in recent months, catching a lot of heat and attention for his statements and antics. As such, the notion that other famous friends reached out to him doesn’t come as a surprise.

Meanwhile, these civil cases against Diddy continue to develop as his federal and criminal trial is still in set-up mode, as well. For example, a woman suing him for alleged sexual assault recently revealed her identity due to a court order. It’s unclear whether this situation will affect other civil lawsuits under similar circumstances, so we’ll see if it preludes anything significant.

Diddy’s Latest Lawsuit Involves Allegedly Inspecting A 16-Year-Old Boy’s Genitals

October 15, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Sean “Diddy” Combs is facing a new lawsuit with allegations of sexually assaulting a minor. The filing was brought by a John Doe working with attorney Tony Buzbee on Monday. He alleges he attended a party of Diddy’s at just 16 years old in 1998 when the Bad Boy mogul took an interest in him. John Doe alleges Diddy brought him to a more secluded area of the event after posing for a picture with him.

“Combs abruptly told John Doe that he needed to drop his pants,” the lawyers wrote in the lawsuit, as caught by AllHipHop. “John Doe, caught completely off guard, confusingly asked Combs to repeat himself. Combs made himself clear. He instructed John Doe to drop his pants and expose his penis so that Combs could inspect it, explaining it was a rite of passage and the route to becoming a star, and also as a way to prove himself. ‘Don’t you want to break into the business?’ Doe immediately felt uncomfortable, froze and did not know what to do. Combs remained calm and stood in front of him and stretched out his hand in a cupped position. Out of fear, anxiety, and the imbalanced power dynamic between himself and Combs, John Doe then dropped his pants and exposed his penis as Combs previously instructed.”

Diddy’s Family Attends His Latest Hearing

The lawsuit continued: “Combs moved closer and grabbed John Doe’s penis and genitals with his hand. He firmly cupped and held onto John Doe’s genitals for an extended period of time. During this time, Combs moved his hand in such a fashion to manipulate John Doe’s genitals, squeezing and feeling them. Doe was only sixteen. Combs abruptly then let go of John Doe’s genitals and told him that his people would be in touch. Combs continued with his party as if nothing had happened, but for John Doe, everything had changed. John Doe eventually recognized Combs sexually assaulted him by and through his power and influence over John Doe because he knew John Doe wanted to become a star.”

The alleged victim is seeking damages for pain and suffering, mental anguish, physical impairment, and emotional torment. Diddy and his legal team have already denied the allegations. The latest lawsuit comes as he remains behind bars while awaiting trial in his case regarding charges of alleged sex trafficking and racketeering. He pleaded not guilty shortly after his arrest. Be on the lookout for further updates on Diddy on HotNewHipHop.

Diddy Faces Another Lawsuit Over An Alleged Rape Under The Threat Of Violence

October 14, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Diddy is facing a new lawsuit from a woman who alleges that the Bad Boy mogul raped her at a hotel in Manhattan when she was just 19 years old. The woman, who only identifies as Jane Doe in the filing, alleges she met Diddy at a photoshoot for Da Band in 2004 where he invited her and a friend to an afterparty. Before the party, he asked they stop by his hotel room where the alleged incident then took place.

“You know what you are here for,” Diddy allegedly remarked once they were alone. The lawsuit adds: “Combs continued getting gradually more aggressive with the two women and eventually began forcibly touching them without consent. When they resisted, Combs ordered Ms. Doe’s friend to perform oral sex on him or else he would have them both killed. Once she was undressed, Combs forced himself on her and began to sexually assault her. Combs fondled, molested, and ultimately raped Ms. Doe, all while she was begging him to stop.”

Diddy’s Family Attends His Latest Hearing

The latest alleged victim has hired Tony Buzbee, the attorney who went viral earlier this month for claiming to have 120 more alleged victims. “When we talk about the ages of the victims when the conduct occurred, it’s shocking,” Buzbee said at the press conference. “Our youngest victim at the time of the occurrence was nine years old. We have an individual who was 14 years old. We have one who was 15.” According to Rolling Stone, Buzbee said Monday that he’ll be coming forward with several more lawsuits against Diddy in the coming weeks.

The latest accusation comes as Diddy remains behind bars at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn while awaiting trial in his case regarding charges of alleged sex trafficking and racketeering. He’s already pleaded not guilty to those charges. As for Buzbee’s cases, one of Diddy’s lawyers, Erica Wolff, already denied all of the allegations in a statement to Rolling Stone. Be on the lookout for further updates on Diddy on HotNewHipHop.

Diddy Sexual Abuse Hotline Receives 12,000 Calls In 24-Hour Span

October 8, 2024 by newhiphopnews

The number of Diddy lawsuits and allegations is simply dumbfounding and it’s going to continue to grow. Tony Buzbee, a high-profile Houston attorney who’s worked against clients such as Deshaun Watson, is helping contribute to that stack of legal papers by representing 120 alleged sexual assault/abuse victims. It’s worth noting their cases have yet to be filed. Earlier this month, he revealed this in a press conference and spoke with a sense of urgency and encouragement. “This is an important matter that we intend to aggressively pursue. We will leave no stone unturned to find all potentially liable parties, to include any individual or entity who participated in or benefitted from this egregious behavior,” he began.

“As we do this important work, we ask that the public understand it is very difficult and takes an incredible amount of courage for victims to come forward. I ask that we treat these brave individuals with the dignity and compassion that they deserve as they go through this trying time.” Following these statements, Buzbee then implored any one with potential allegations against Diddy to call the Sexual Assault Hotline. This instruction has led to some pretty negative reactions from other media personalities and the internet at large. Charlamagne tha God, along with the rest of The Breakfast Club, were quick to label it as a “joke” and that it’s going to discredit people who might have actual stories to tell.

The Internet Doesn’t Understand The Need For Opening A Hotline For Diddy

Well, there’s a good chance that Buzbee and whoever else was responsible for opening up the phones are going to prove these critics right because the number of callers is jaw-dropping. According to HOLLYWOOD UNLOCKED and E! News, the attorney says that since that aforementioned press conference, the hotline had received 12,000 in just 24 hours. “When I made an announcement that I was going to pursue this case, the floodgates really opened. In a 10-day period we got 3,200 calls and then from the press conference we had yesterday, we had 12,000 calls in about 24 hours… I was not expecting the high volume of contact that we’ve gotten in the last 24 hours,” Buzbee said. Of course, this doesn’t mean that all of them are in “good faith,” so it will be interesting to see how all of these unfold.

What are your thoughts on attorney Tony Buzbee saying the Diddy Hotline has received 12,000 calls? Do you think this is going to ruin any potentially real victims’ chances of receiving justice? How many of these do you think were actually real callers? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments.

Cassie Reportedly “Sickened” By Diddy Minor Abuse Allegations & Baby Oil Jokes

October 3, 2024 by newhiphopnews

At a press conference earlier this week, attorney Tony Buzbee revealed that he’ll be representing over 120 individuals who plan to take legal action against Diddy. They accuse him of sexual assault, abuse, and more. 25 of them even claim to have been minors when the alleged abuse took place. For obvious reasons, this has prompted outrage from the public, including some of Diddy’s other alleged victims.

A source recently told Daily Mail, for example, that Cassie is disgusted. The singer sued Diddy in November of last year, and they reached a settlement roughly a day later. “Cassie had heard mumblings about the class action suit but broke down in tears when she was informed of the allegation about the child,” the source claimed. “She is planning to take time away from receiving updates because it has sickened her, and she hopes that anyone who was hurt receives justice and peace of body and mind.”

The allegations involving minors aren’t the only thing upsetting Cassie these days, however, according to the source. They add that she’s hurt by the jokes and memes that have been shared about baby oil in recent weeks. For those who don’t recall, Diddy’s indictment states that 1,000 bottles of the substance were discovered on his property.

“She is hurt that people are making jokes and memes out of the baby oil because of what it could have been used for,” the source told the outlet. “It isn’t funny to her or anyone who experienced similar.” What do you think of Cassie reportedly being “sickened” over allegations Diddy abused minors? What about her reportedly being hurt by all of the memes and jokes about baby oil? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.
