Diddy is experiencing a series of setbacks, which can be a consequence of his questionable behavior. The controversial rapper‘s attraction to men has now resulted in a $100 million loss due to a sexual assault case he managed to avoid, as a judge has issued a default judgment requiring him to compensate the victim who accused him of assault.
Diddy’s 1997 assault against Derrick Lee Cardello-Smith
The incident reportedly took place in Detroit in 1997, as recounted by the victim, Derrick Lee Cardello-Smith. In his lawsuit, Derrick, who is currently incarcerated at Earnest C. Brooks Correctional Facility in Muskegon Heights, claims that Diddy drugged and sexually assaulted him at a party. He stated that while they were drinking and smoking marijuana, they ended up naked with some women present.
Derrick alleges that while he was performing oral sex on a woman, he felt Diddy’s hand on his left buttock. Diddy then allegedly offered him a spiked drink, causing him to pass out. When Derrick regained consciousness hours later, he claims to have seen Diddy having sex with a woman and heard Diddy say, “I did this to you too,“ according to TMZ.
Diddy sued for $100 million for sexual assault against man
Derrick filed a $100 million lawsuit against Diddy, whose real name is Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs, for the alleged sexual assault, but Diddy did not respond to the lawsuit. During a default judgment hearing scheduled for September 9, 2024, Judge Anna Marie Anzalone of the Lenawee County Circuit Court granted Derrick’s motion for default judgment, ordering Diddy to pay him $100 million.
According to TMZ, the judge mandated that Diddy begin making monthly payments of $10 million to Derrick starting on October 1.
