A Los Angeles judge has allowed yet another bombshell sexual assault lawsuit against Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs to move forward.
Rejecting efforts from his legal team to shut down claims that the imprisoned music mogul assaulted a fellow music producer, the ruling allows the case to proceed that included Combs beating plaintiff Jonathan Hay before forcing his penis into the man’s mouth during a 2020 studio session, according to court filings.
Hay alleges Combs supplied him with drugs, including ketamine, during studio sessions before subjecting him to a humiliating and non-consensual sexual encounter involving Combs and a T-shirt once owned by the late rapper Biggie Smalls. Following the alleged assault, the defendant is accused of saying, “Rest in peace, BIG,” before throwing the shirt onto Hay.
The suit cites the estate of The Notorious B.I.G. and his son, Christopher ‘CJ’ Wallace as co-accused with Hay alleging that they were aware of Combs’ disturbing behavior, and that Biggie helped lure him into a trap.
In was in 2025 that Los Angeles authorities opened a criminal investigation into the alleged incident and during an interview with The New York Post, Hay described the decision as a “big week” in an otherwise ugly chapter of his life. He told the periodical that he had been “very excited” to work on a project involving the late Notorious B.I.G., who was gunned down in a drive-by shooting in Los Angeles in 1997, adding:
“Obviously, I’m a huge fan. That’s the reason why we did this project to begin with.” “And it was an honor to work with the estate.” “And then Sean Combs comes along and makes it dark.”
