Attorney Tony Buzbee expects to increase the number of civil lawsuits he is filing against Sean “Diddy” Combs after receiving a new wave of calls from alleged victims.
During a news conference on Tuesday, Oct. 1, Buzbee said he and co-counsel — Andrew Van Arsdale of the AVA Law Group — planned to file 120 lawsuits after receiving more than 3,000 calls to a hotline they set up to report alleged abuse by Diddy.
On Wednesday, the attorney sat down for an interview with the Law & Crime network and said additional calls to the hotline have been pouring in.
“From the press conference we had yesterday, we’ve had 12,000 calls in about 24 hours. So, our Herculean task is to try to sift through every one of these calls and make sure that we’re identifying those who are victims and those who are witnesses and collect evidence,” Buzbee explained. “We have almost 100 people working on this task.”
The Houston-based attorney added that he’s trying to make sure the cases are airtight.
“The 120 [cases] that we announced yesterday, those are claims that we could file right now against Sean Combs, but we’re trying to make sure that when we file the cases… that we include every potentially liable party,” Buzbee said.
Of those 120 accusers, the attorney said 25 were minors at the time of the alleged abuse.
Buzbee claimed his firm has been able to corroborate the allegations via videos, pictures, text messages, police reports and hospital records.
“Most of these events and incidents occurred at parties and afterparties, or album release parties, New Year’s Eve parties, Fourth of July parties, something they called a ‘puppy party,’ and all-white parties,” Buzbee said Tuesday.
The attorney noted that the alleged abuse occurred over 33 years — from 1991 to 2024, and he claimed the names of some of those who were complicit “will shock you.”
