Tony Buzbee received 12,000 tips against Diddy within 24 hours
Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs has been hit with a slew of serious allegations since his arrest in September, and now a claim brought against him a minor girl has been revealed.
The music mogul has been charged with sex trafficking and racketeering, and as many as 12,000 calls have been made to a hotline dedicated to bringing tips in against him.
Set up by attorney Tony Buzbee, he explained how he could file 120 claims against the rapper now but would need to wade through the rest to determine credible sources.
During a press conference, he alleged that the rapper was responsible for a 15-year-old girl who was drugged and sexually assaulted in his presence.
The 54-year-old could have as many as 120 people filing against him and according to Buzbee, they are all planning to take legal action against Diddy with allegations ranging from exploitation to sexual abuse, the lawsuit is mounting.

The attorney claimed during the press conference on Tuesday, that Diddy was using horse tranquilliser to drug his alleged victims.
One alleged victim who was just 15 years old at the time was apparently ‘flown to New York City to attend a party’ before she was drugged and ‘taken to a private room allegedly in the presence of Mr Combs.’
Buzbee said: “This female individual was raped and then other individuals took turns raping her.”
The lawyer also revealed that a 20-year-old was alleged to have been invited to a party with Diddy in a hotel and shared: “She was flattered, went to the party, was given one drink and doesn’t remember anything else.”
Buzbee alleged that she was taken to hospital where doctors discovered traces of cocaine and horse tranquilliser in her blood system.’
He added: “Several of the individuals [were] tested and drugs were found in their system.”
He said they were ‘weird drugs, drugs that you probably never heard of’ with ‘Onein particular that continues to pop up is a drug called Xylazine, or Tranq, which based on our research, is known as a horse tranquilizer.’
Buzbee shared that he is intending to file lawsuits against the rapper within the next 30 days from both men and women, with ages between 9 and 38.

The attorney previously spoke to Law & Crime about the results his hotline brought in.
He explained: “When I made an announcement that that I was going to pursue these cases the floodgates really opened. In about a 10-day period we got 3,200 calls and then from the press conference we had yesterday, we’ve had 12,000 calls since- I guess- in about 24 hours.”
Diddy’s attorney has slammed these claims, and in a statement said: “As Mr. Combs’ legal team has emphasised that he cannot address every meritless allegation in what has become a reckless media circus.”
“That said, Mr. Combs emphatically and categorically denies as false and defamatory any claim that he sexually abused anyone, including minors.”
“He looks forward to proving his innocence and vindicating himself in court, where the truth will be established based on evidence, not speculation.”
