More than a hundred new sexual assault allegations have surfaced against Sean "Diddy" Combs, with a Texas attorney revealing he is representing 120 individuals who have made additional claims.
During a press conference on Tuesday, Texas-based lawyer Tony Buzbee stated, "We will expose the enablers who allowed this behavior behind closed doors. We will pursue this matter, regardless of who the evidence implicates."
Speaking to the allegations, Buzbee said, "Many powerful people … many dirty secrets," according to NBC News. He added that his team has gathered "pictures, videos, and texts," and that the names they've uncovered "will shock you."
Last Friday, Buzbee's law firm announced it was representing over 50 people who had come forward with "gut-wrenching" stories about what they had allegedly witnessed at the rapper's so-called "freak off" parties. Buzbee characterized the claims as "mindboggling" and described the events as involving "debauchery and depravity, carried out by powerful individuals against minors and vulnerable people."
Buzbee also indicated that more individuals are likely to be implicated as the case and related lawsuits move forward through the legal system.
By Tuesday, the number of accusers represented by Buzbee Law Firm and the AVA Law Group had more than doubled, according to Buzbee. He also mentioned that more than 3,000 people had contacted his office with accusations against Combs, with lawsuits expected to be filed across multiple states.
At the press conference, Buzbee urged, "I ask that we treat these brave individuals with the dignity and compassion they deserve as they go through this difficult time." He also encouraged other victims or witnesses to come forward, assuring them that their identities would remain confidential for now.
Buzbee further stated, "The biggest secret in the entertainment industry, which was really no secret at all, has finally been revealed to the world. The wall of silence has now been broken."
