Sean “Diddy” Combs is facing serious legal trouble as his former business associate, Kirk Burrowes, has filed a lawsuit accusing the hip-hop mogul of years of sexual abuse, coercion, and physical violence. The lawsuit submitted in a New York court on February 28, details a troubling history of alleged misconduct spanning more than a decade.

Burrowes, who co-founded Bad Boy Entertainment and once served as its president, claims he endured a toxic and abusive environment under Combs. His legal team, led by attorney Tyrone Blackburn, filed an 18-page complaint outlining allegations of repeated sexual harassment, physical aggression, and psychological manipulation.

According to the lawsuit, Combs subjected Burrowes to a pattern of coercion and intimidation, creating an atmosphere of fear and control.

Court documents describe a series of unwanted advances, inappropriate nudity, and acts of exhibitionism during business meetings. The complaint also accuses Combs of engaging in voyeurism and other predatory behaviors that contributed to a deeply disturbing work environment. Furthermore Burrowes alleges that Combs used violence blackmail and financial extortion to pressure him into relinquishing his 25% ownership stake in Bad Boy Entertainment.

Burrowes’ legal battle with Combs is not new. In 2003, he filed a similar lawsuit regarding an alleged 1996 incident, though that case was dismissed.In response, Combs’ legal team has dismissed the claims as baseless. In a statement issued to People Magazine, they called Burrowes’ lawsuit a frivolous attempt to revive previously dismissed allegations.

Meanwhile, Combs is also facing a federal trial set for May on criminal charges including sex trafficking and transportation for prostitution. He remains in pretrial detention at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn. In addition to Burrowes’ lawsuit, Combs is currently dealing with more than a dozen civil lawsuits from both men and women accusing him of sexual abuse and misconduct.

As these legal battles unfold, Combs’ reputation continues to face significant damage. The allegations, if proven true, could have lasting consequences for the music mogul  whose once-dominant influence in the entertainment industry is now overshadowed by controversy and legal troubles.
