Danity Kane’s Dawn Richard Files Sexual Abuse Lawsuit Against Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs

In New York federal court on Tuesday (September 10), Dawn Richard filed a sexual abuse lawsuit against Sean “Diddy” Combs. The 41-year-old musician was formerly a member of the Combs-affiliated girl group Danity Kane. In Richard’s complaint, she alleges that Combs sexually and verbally abused her for almost 10 years. She is now the eighth person to accuse Combs of sexual abuse. Richard also claims that Combs owes her $3.5 million in “unpaid salaries and royalties” from Danity Kane’s first two albums along with “unpaid wages for touring on over 100 dates.” Lisa Bloom, an attorney for Richard, said in a statement, “It is my honor to represent the talented and beloved artist Dawn Richard as she seeks justice against Sean Combs and other individuals and entities associated with Combs over the years she knew him. We will not rest until we achieve full and complete justice for Dawn in this case.” (People)
