Sean “Diddy” Combs was accused in a lawsuit on Wednesday of gang-raping a 17-year-old girl in 2003, marking the fourth sexual assault allegation lodged against the producer in recent weeks.

The plaintiff, identified as Jane Doe, alleges that she was flown on a private jet from Michigan to Combs’ recording studio in New York, where she was raped by three people, including Combs and Harve Pierre, the president of Bad Boy Entertainment.

According to the suit, Combs and his associates plied her with “copious amounts” of drugs and alcohol. The suit alleges that Combs raped her over a bathroom sink while she went in and out of consciousness, and that Combs then watched as a third man also raped her.

    I mean, having sex with people of certain ages is illegal for a reason so it doesn’t actually matter if she was “willing” if she was under the age of consent. Also, drugging a person removes their ability to make an informed decision to consent so again, even if she did agree to it, her consent wasn’t valid on that point either. In other words, she wasn’t capable of consenting so, ya know, rape.

      I’m not talking about convicting the perpetrator. Please stop assuming, lol.

      Legally speaking, there is no ambiguity.

      But in reality, there is. If you can’t understand that, it’s probably because you don’t want to.
