Sean “Diddy” Combs Faces New Sex Trafficking Allegations in Lawsuit by Former Porn Star
Sean “Diddy” Combs is facing fresh allegations of sex trafficking in a lawsuit filed Wednesday by former porn star Adria English, also known by her stage name Omunique. The lawsuit also names Tamiko Thomas, accused of playing a role similar to Ghislaine Maxwell’s in Jeffrey Epstein’s operations.
English claims she was ensnared in a cycle of sex trafficking orchestrated by Combs, who allegedly saw her as an easy target for grooming. This lawsuit marks at least the 10th filed against Combs involving accusations of physical abuse and sex trafficking.
According to the complaint, English met Combs while working as a dancer at the Hustler Club in New York. Her then-boyfriend, an aspiring model, was offered work with Sean John on the condition that English would dance at Combs’ parties in the Hamptons and Miami.
“Plaintiff did not agree to a lifetime of aftermath of being used as a sexual pawn for the pleasure and financial benefit of others,” the lawsuit states.
English alleges she was coerced into consuming alcohol and drugs, after which she was sexually assaulted.
The lawsuit, filed in the Southern District of New York, implicates Tamiko Thomas in facilitating Combs’ alleged sex trafficking activities.
“Defendant Thomas was to Defendant Combs as Ghislaine Maxwell was to Jeffrey Epstein,” the lawsuit asserts. “Without Defendant Thomas, a woman using her inherent good will to gain the trust of other women, coordinating and acting as an avatar for Defendant Combs, Defendant Combs would be unable to execute his corrupt sex trafficking organization.”
