The suit was filed by Rodney “Lil Rod” Jones, Combs’ former videographer and producer, who sued him in February, accusing him of sexual harassment and claiming drug use was widespread in Combs’ business operations. Combs.

Jones said employees, including housekeepers, chefs and butlers, were forced to carry illegal substances like cocaine, GHB, ecstasy, marijuana gummies and Tuci.

Jones’ complaint was filed months after a series of legal actions against Combs, including a lawsuit filed by his ex, Casandra “Cassie” Ventura, accusing him of sexual abuse. In response to the allegations, Combs’ legal team denied the allegations, stating that Jones was trying to obtain “undeserved pay.”

“Mr. Jones is nothing more than a con artist, shamelessly seeking an easy and completely undeserved payday,” Combs’ attorney said in a statement. “We have overwhelming and indisputable proof that his claims are outright lies.”

The case follows Combs’ arrest after searches of his homes in Los Angeles and Miami, where he faces federal charges including sex trafficking and racketeering, according to People.

Prosecutors allege that Combs was involved in orchestrating drug-fueled parties, known as “freak offs,” that involved coerced participants and lasted for several days.
