Cassie Ventura’s Lawsuit Against Sean Combs Includes Allegations of Sexual Assault and Abuse, Here’s a Timeline of Controversies
Last week, Casandra “Cassie” Ventura filed a federal lawsuit against Sean “Diddy” Combs in New York federal court, including shocking claims of sexual assault, physical abuse, and an allegation that Combs would force her to have sex with male sex workers while he watched. These allegations have once again brought attention to Combs’ history of violence and controversy.
Combs, who has tried to rebrand himself as “Brother Love” in recent years, has a long history of violence, dating back to the Nineties. While he has never been convicted of a serious crime, he has repeatedly been accused of violent encounters with several individuals.
His public image has been marred by a series of controversial incidents over the years, including:
The CCNY Tragedy in 1991 when he co-promoted a basketball game and concert that resulted in the deaths of nine people.
The Jake Robles Shooting in 1995 that triggered the violent rivalry between Death Row and Bad Boy Records.
The 1998 attack on music executive Steve Stoute after a dispute over the portrayal of Combs in a music video.
The infamous Club New York shooting in 1999 that resulted in multiple people being shot.
An altercation with J. Cole at a 2013 MTV VMAs afterparty.
A 2014 incident where he allegedly punched Drake.
A scuffle with a UCLA coach in 2015.
Allegations of physical abuse from his ex, Gina Huynh, in 2019.
These controversies have consistently haunted Combs over the years, and the recent lawsuit from Cassie Ventura adds yet another layer of complexity to his public persona and reputation. The ceaseless stream of allegations and scandals serve as a reminder of the tumultuous and controversial history of this music mogul.
