Headline: Diddy faces New Lawsuit Alleging Sex Trafficking and sexual Battery
Breaking News Lead: Sean “Diddy” Combs is once again facing legal scrutiny, this time with a new lawsuit filed by Michael Ejiawoko, a sex worker who alleges that Combs orchestrated sexual encounters at luxury hotels in Los Angeles and Las vegas under false pretenses.The lawsuit, filed in los Angeles County Superior Court, also names The palazzo, Wynn Las Vegas, and The London West Hollywood as defendants, accusing them of facilitating these alleged illicit activities.
evergreen Context:
The lawsuit claims that in 2018, Ejiawoko was recruited by Combs with the understanding that he was engaging in consensual sex work with adult women. Tho, Ejiawoko alleges that the women were coerced, and that Combs “orchestrated and observed the acts without participating.” The suit further contends that hotel staff actively concealed Combs’ identity by booking rooms under aliases, such as “Mr. Star,” and assisted in facilitating the encounters.
According to Ejiawoko’s attorney, Jonathan D. Evans, hotel staff allegedly “knowingly facilitated Mr. Combs’ illicit activities by reserving hotel rooms under aliases… granting access to private or secured areas… escorting Ejiawoko and other participants… cleaning and removing paraphernalia…Failing to report or investigate clear signs of illegal conduct.”
Ejiawoko’s legal filing states that Combs instructed him to use oil during sexual encounters, which Ejiawoko believes was laced with drugs. He also claims the sessions were recorded without his consent, which he could not provide due to being drugged.The allegations against Combs and the hotels include sexual battery, civil conspiracy, and violations of the federal Trafficking Victims Protection Act. Ejiawoko is seeking over $500,000 in damages, including compensation for emotional distress and mental anguish, punitive damages, and attorney fees. He has also requested a jury trial.
This new legal action comes after Combs was found guilty on two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution following a federal criminal trial in New York City.He was acquitted of more serious charges,including racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking. Combs is scheduled to be sentenced on October 3, 2025.
