Her lawsuit added that she is experiencing “bouts of depression, anxiety, body image issues, feelings of worthlessness, and intimacy issues as a result of her attack.”
Another legal complaint has been filed against Combs by a plaintiff anonymously filing suit under the name Jane Doe, in connection with the infamous 1991 CCNY stampede.
Combs, who was still emerging in the music industry at the time, co-sponsored a charity basketball game at the university in December 1991.

Jane Doe claims that she and a friend of hers went to the basketball game at the invitation of a rapper they knew would be performing there.
In her lawsuit, Doe claims she persuaded a security guard to let her and her friend in early because a large and disorderly crowd was already forming.
She claims she was then taken to a locker room office in a gym that Combs used as a locker room for the event.
Doe says she didn’t recognize Combs, but asked him to help her find the rapper she knew who was on the bill.
She claims Combs agreed to her request, claiming he then offered her a plastic cup that he said was Coca-Cola.
According to Doe’s lawsuit, she felt dizzy after sipping the drink, but when she tried to leave the room, Combs prevented her from doing so and then began fondling her and touching herself.
Doe’s legal documents allege that she struggled, but Combs overpowered her, pushed her down and removed her underwear before raping her.
She claims that she then told Combs that she would inform her rapper friend about the alleged encounter, but Combs allegedly warned her against such a course of action, saying that “people can go missing.”
According to Doe’s lawsuit, Combs then left the room to handle a development at the basketball game — and when she found her friend and left, the infamous stampede was supposedly underway.
