Timeline of key events in abuse allegations against Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs – Entertainment News

Sean “Diddy” Combs has issued a public apology after a newly released video showed him physically assaulting his former protege and girlfriend, Cassie, in a Los Angeles hotel in 2016. The video, which was aired by CNN, depicts a disturbing scene where Combs, wearing only a towel, punches, kicks, and throws Cassie to the floor in a hotel hallway.

This incident comes in the midst of a series of allegations against Combs, including accusations of sexual abuse and assault by multiple women. The wave of allegations began when Cassie filed a lawsuit in November 2023, detailing years of abuse she endured at the hands of Combs, including beatings and rape. The lawsuit also alleged that Combs forced Cassie to have sex with other men and raped her in her home in 2018.

Since then, several other women have come forward with similar allegations against Combs, leading to a string of lawsuits and legal battles. In response to the mounting allegations, Combs temporarily stepped down as chairman of his cable television network, Revolt, and faced a sex-trafficking investigation by Homeland Security.

In a surprising turn of events, Combs has now publicly apologized for his actions in the 2016 video, acknowledging the harm he caused and expressing remorse for his behavior. This marks the first time Combs has taken responsibility for his actions since the allegations surfaced.

As the legal battles continue to unfold, the public is left wondering what the future holds for one of the most influential music moguls of the past three decades. Will Combs be able to redeem himself in the eyes of his fans and the public, or will the allegations tarnish his reputation irreparably? Only time will tell.
