According to CNN Hip-hop mogul Sean “Jay-Z” Carter has been named in lawsuit with Sean “Diddy” Combs for allegedly sexually assaulting a 13 year-old girl in 2000.
The lawsuit reports, the Doe’s attorneys reached out to Carter to request “a mediation to resolve this matter.”
“Upon present information and belief, Jay-Z responded to said letter by not only filing an utterly frivolous lawsuit, but by also orchestrating a conspiracy of harassment, bullying and intimidation against Plaintiff’s lawyers, their families, employees and former associates in an attempt to silence Plaintiff from naming Jay-Z herein. This effort was meant to scare Plaintiff and to discredit her counsel. That effort failed. Indeed, Plaintiff chose to file this amendment as a result of the egregious conduct perpetuated by Carter,” according to the lawsuit.
Carter responded to CNN in a statement says it’s a “blackmail attempt.” Carter also mentioned this lawyer, “who I have done a bit of research on, seems to have a pattern of these type of theatrics!”
“My wife and I will have to sit our children down, one of whom is at the age where her friends will surely see the press and ask questions about the nature of these claims, and explain the cruelty and greed of people. I mourn yet another loss of innocence. Children should not have to endure such at their young age,” he added.
