Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs was hit by a explosive new lawsuit just hours after he was acquitted of sex-trafficking and racketeering.
The music tycoon, aged 55, along with his primary accuser, Cassie Ventura, stand accused of having drugged and emotionally harmed one of the male escorts they engaged for their extravagant gatherings, Clayton Howard.
Howard, also known as ‘Dave,’ alleges that Cassie transmitted an STD to him and terminated their pregnancy without his knowledge. He further claims she coerced him into taking ecstasy and engaging in unprotected intercourse.
Diddy was convicted of transporting Howard and six other male escorts across state lines to engage in prostitution.
In his lawsuit, Howard asserts that he was compensated for engaging in sexual activities with Diddy and Cassie over a period of eight years, starting in 2009. He contends that he was utilized as ‘entertainment to fulfill their sexual desires and personal goals.’
The male escort says both Diddy and Cassie were toxic individuals addicted to opiates and methamphetamines who had no regard for others or the law.
Howard challenges the narrative of Cassie as a victim, claiming: ‘Ventura was not merely a victim forced into sexual encounters with male escorts, but rather an active and engaged participant who willingly manipulated and exploited others, including Plaintiff, to satisfy the sexually depraved desires of Defendant Combs and herself.’

The lawsuit comes after Diddy was denied bond after being convicted of prostitution-related offenses but acquitted of the most serious charges on Wednesday
He claims Cassie ‘drugged him with controlled substances, including MDMA in doses three times stronger than what she herself consumed, to lower his inhibitions and facilitate sexual exploitation.’
The lawsuit adds that Cassie ‘used these substances strategically, “like a spider catching its prey in its web.”‘
Howard says Cassie ‘commanded him to masturbate for hours,’ which would leave his ‘penis bruised and swollen.’ He says he would ask Cassie to consider his injuries but she ‘showed no mercy.’
He accuses her of manipulating and forcing ‘herself upon him during her menstrual cycle against his will’ as well as filming him without his consent.
Howard also says Diddy ‘implied threats of violence’ and once threatened to ‘pistol whip’ him.
‘Ventura deceived, manipulated, and injured Plaintiff and therefore, should be held accountable alongside Defendant Combs, as the two were partners in these criminal enterprises,’ the lawsuit reads.
Howard is asking for unspecified monetary relief.
He also has released a book titled Cassie: Victim or co-conspirator.’
The lawsuit comes after Diddy was denied bond after being convicted of prostitution-related offenses Wednesday. He was acquitted of sex trafficking and racketeering charges that could have put one of hip-hop’s most celebrated figures behind bars for life.

Diddy’s lawyers said that under federal sentencing guidelines, he would likely face about two years in prison.
Prosecutors, citing the rapper’s violence and other factors, said the guidelines would call for at least four to five years. Locked up since his September arrest, Diddy has already served nine months.
A jury of eight men and four women acquitted him of racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking charges related to allegations that he used his money, power and frightening physical force to manipulate girlfriends into hundreds of drug-fueled sex marathons with men.
The defense team argued that the women were willing participants and that none of his violence justified the severity of the charges.
