New allegations have emerged against Sean “Diddy” Combs after a lawyer disclosed during a press conference on Tuesday that they were representing over 120 people in civil suits against the rap mogul.
The 54-year-old music executive is currently in custody in New York, awaiting trial on charges of sex trafficking and racketeering.
A list of Diddy’s alleged accomplices is set to be released as part of a new wave of bombshell lawsuits and his lawyer says it contains household names.
“The names will shock you,” attorney Tony Buzbee said during a press conference on Tuesday as he announced the new cases on behalf of 120 victims.
“The day will come when we will name names other than Sean Combs, and there's a lot of names,” he continued.
Tony Buzbee, a Texas-based lawyer, vowed in the live-streamed event that the “day will come” when the other alleged offenders and enablers involved with Combs’ activities will be named.
Speaking to reporters, he stated, "We will reveal those who allowed this conduct to continue behind closed doors. No matter who the evidence implicates, we will pursue justice."
“There will be a time when we identify others besides Sean Combs, and the list is extensive. Because of the serious nature of this case, we will ensure we have the facts before revealing any further names. The revelations will be shocking.”
Buzbee also confirmed plans to file lawsuits across various states in the coming 30 days, adding that other defendants would be named at a later stage.
He pledged to expose the “bystanders” and active participants who allegedly encouraged the abuse alongside Combs.
“These individuals know who they are and should come forward now,” Buzbee warned.
“I imagine there are many people feeling nervous as we speak, scrambling to delete texts and data. However, you cannot keep skeletons in the closet forever.”
Combs, who maintains his innocence, has pleaded not guilty to all current charges.
His lawyer, Erica Wolff, told TMZ after the press conference, “Mr Combs cannot address every baseless claim in what has become a reckless media spectacle. However, he categorically denies any allegation of sexual abuse, including those involving minors.”
