According to PEOPLE, Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ lawyers have requested the identities of the accusers in his sex trafficking case to be disclosed in order to prepare for his trial in May 2025. 

The legal team argues that the numerous allegations against Combs, fueled by his celebrity status and previous lawsuits, have created a media circus that could deprive him of a fair trial.  The request comes after four men and two women sued the rapper for sexual assault and rape, with the lawyers dismissing the accusations as a publicity stunt. 

Combs was previously sued by his ex-girlfriend, triggering a wave of sexual assault lawsuits against him, and he is currently held on sex trafficking and racketeering charges at the Metropolitan Detention Center in New York.
