This case has captured the attention of both the media and the public, as more details about the extent of the allegations surface. Houston attorney Tony Buzbee, representing the plaintiffs, recently provided more insight into the scope of the accusations.
120 Plaintiffs from Diverse Backgrounds
In a press conference, Buzbee revealed that 60 males and 60 females have come forward to file lawsuits against Combs. These lawsuits are expected to be filed within the next month, primarily in New York and Los Angeles.

Buzbee emphasized that the alleged misconduct spans over 25 years, dating back to 1991 and continuing until 2024. This long timeline explains the large number of plaintiffs. The wide-ranging accusations involve serious claims of sexual misconduct and participation in a sex trafficking ring orchestrated by Combs.
