Sean “Diddy” Combs is facing a new round of legal investigation.
The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department has launched an investigation into new allegations of sexual assault. ABC News reported on November 18.
The report, originally filed in September with Largo police in Florida, was forwarded to LA authorities on November 14 and alleges claims made by a male music producer.
In the filing, the producer alleges two separate incidents involving Combs. In the first, he claims that Diddy enjoyed himself in front of him in February 2020 and asked him to “finish him off.”
A second alleged encounter in March 2021 involved CJ Wallace – the son of the late Notorious BIG – who, according to the producer, transported him to a location where two men covered his head before Diddy “forced” himself on him.
Wallace has strongly denied any involvement and filed a lawsuit on November 12, calling the allegations “extremely false and defamatory” and part of a “calculated smear campaign.”
The LA County Sheriff’s Department’s Special Victims Bureau will now take charge of the investigation.
Diddy’s attorney Jonathan Davis also dismissed the allegations in a statement to NBC News, saying the mogul “categorically denies any claims that he sexually assaulted anyone as false and defamatory.”
The new charges come as Combs is serving a 50-month federal sentence following his conviction on transportation charges in 2024, with his release date currently set for June 4, 2028. The release date was pushed back to May 8 following reports that Diddy violated several prison rules, including drinking in prison and making a three-way call.
His representatives continue to deny rumors of misconduct while in custody, insisting that his “sobriety and self-discipline are priorities.”
