Houston attorney Tony Buzbee withdraws from sex trafficking lawsuit against Sean \u2018Diddy\u2019 Combs<\/b><\/a><\/p>\nAfter Diddy\u2019s verdict was announced, Buzbee said Diddy \u201cdodged a big bullet today.\u201d<\/p>\n
Here\u2019s Buzee\u2019s statement following the conviction: <\/b><\/p>\n
\u201cBut that doesn\u2019t end the saga. The thrust of the prosecution\u2019s case was focused solely on two alleged victims, Cassie and Jane, with whom Sean Combs had long-term relationships. The jury found that he violated federal law with regard to the transportation to engage in prostitution but cleared him on the most three most serious charges. <\/p>\n
\u201cPerhaps because of the nature of his relationship with those women and the length of those two relationships, I think the jury struggled with the difficult issue of consent and more broadly whether Mr. Combs\u2019 conduct appropriately fit within the RICO statute. <\/p>\n
\u201cOur clients were not the focus of the prosecution\u2019s case. And those issues are not present in our cases. Our cases instead focus on discrete wrongful conduct allegedly committed by Mr. Combs that would be considered state law crimes if proven. Now that this spectacle is over, we look forward to aggressively pursuing these civil cases to obtain justice for these alleged victims.\u201d<\/p>\n
Buzbee has represented over 120 individuals who allege they were victimized by Combs.<\/p>\n
