Sean Combs’ Accusers Can’t Remain Anonymous, Judge Rules


MEGA/WENN

A Manhattan judge has ruled a woman who sued Sean Combs for sëxual assault can’t remain anonymous.

The “Jane Doe” who accused Combs of r@ping her two decades ago must reveal her identity, U.S. District Judge Mary Kay Vyskocil ruled on Wednesday, Oct. 30.

Doe, a Tennessee resident, said Combs r@ped her and threatened her life at a Manhattan hotel in 2004, when she was 19.

Judge Vyskocil said “the balance of interests at stake weighs strongly” against Jane Doe.

The judge’s decision could affect dozens of civil lawsuits filed against the music mogul by people who claim they were drugged and assaulted by Combs decades ago.

Nearly all of the lawsuits were filed anonymously.

Doe’s lawyers argued that filing anonymously is justified because the accusations were highly sensitive. The lawyers claim she could face physical and mental harm if she’s named. They claim Combs’ alleged violent behavior “created the very conditions” that justified anonymity.

Most of Combs’ accusers waited until he was locked up to file their lawsuits.

In another recent lawsuit, a woman claims she was 13 when Combs drugged her at a party. She said he watched as another male celebrity r@ped her while a female star looked on. She didn’t name the other 2 celebrities.

And an anonymous accuser claims he was only 10 when Combs drugged him and r@ped him at a hotel.

Combs’ criminal trial on the federal charges is scheduled for May 5, 2025.
