SDNY COURTHOUSE, Sept 26 – In May 2024 Crystal McKinney sued Sean Combs for sexual assault under the NYC Gender Motivated Violence in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York.
The suit recounts Combs inviting McKinney to Cipriani Downtown - in 2003 - then to his studio on West 44th Street where he drugged and assaulted her, according to the complaint.
On September 24, 2024, after Combs' arrest and detention in the MDC, Thalia Graves sued Combs and others alleging a 2001 rape, complaint on Patreon here.
On September 26 in Jane Doe v. Combs, plaintiff's counsel filed an affidavit by NYS Senator Brad Hoylman-Sigal initially filed in a case against Leon Black, for the proposition that the state statute he sponsored, NYS CVA, was not intended to preempt the NYC law Doe is suing under.
Inner City Press will be covering the Combs cases. These include McKinney v. Combs, et al., 1:24-cv-3931 (Buchwald) and this one, Doe v. Combs, 23-cv-10628 (Clarke)
