In the civil case Doe v. Combs et al., filed on February 4, 2025, in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York (Case No. 1:25-cv-00996-JLR), the plaintiff, identified as John Doe, brings forth multiple allegations against defendants Sean Combs and Bad Boy Records. The claims include human trafficking, sexual battery, assault, false imprisonment, intentional infliction of emotional distress, and breach of contract. Doe asserts that from approximately 2007 to 2012, Combs engaged in non-consensual sexual acts, including forcible anal penetration, and subjected him to physical confinement in various locations, including hotel rooms and Combs' residence. Additionally, Doe alleges that Combs' continuous death threats and coercion prevented him from asserting his rights within the statutory period, leading to claims under the California Trafficking Victims Protection Act and other related statutes.

The complaint further contends that Bad Boy Records benefited from and facilitated Combs' alleged misconduct by maintaining an environment that enabled these actions. Doe claims that the defendants' actions have caused him significant monetary damages, physical injury, and severe psychological distress. He seeks compensatory and punitive damages, as well as injunctive and declaratory relief. The lawsuit emphasizes that due to the alleged continuous threats and coercion by Combs, Doe was compelled to delay filing the action, and it argues that the defendants should be estopped from invoking the statute of limitations as a defense.
