In the amended complaint filed under case number 1:24-cv-07977-VSB, plaintiff Shareka Sherrod accuses Sean Combs and a network of his affiliated companies—including Daddy’s House Recordings, Combs Global, and multiple Bad Boy Entertainment entities—of engaging in a pattern of egregious misconduct that she alleges amounts to sex trafficking, assault, battery, and other civil rights violations. Sherrod claims she was manipulated, exploited, and abused while under the influence and control of Combs and his enterprise, which she describes as operating with a coordinated structure designed to lure, intimidate, and silence victims. The complaint also names numerous “Organizational Does” and “Individual Does,” suggesting additional perpetrators and enablers whose identities may be revealed through discovery.
Sherrod’s lawsuit demands a jury trial and asserts that the abuse she suffered was not incidental, but part of a broader, systematized operation of exploitation embedded within Combs’ business empire. The complaint details alleged psychological and physical harm, and frames her experience as one of many involving women recruited and harmed under similar circumstances. Through this civil action, Sherrod seeks not only monetary damages but legal accountability for what she claims was a deliberate and sustained campaign of abuse and cover-up enabled by corporate infrastructure and protected by power.

Colm's infamous Las Vegas parties were legendary events known for

parties attracted a list celebrities from across the entertainment, fashion
(09:10):
and business worlds. The events were lavishly decorated, featured live
music performances, and boasted top tier of food and beverages.
The atmosphere at these parties was one of opulence and luxury,
often making headlines for their celebrity guest lists. Over the
top entertainment and the stunning aesthetics of the event, many
(09:31):
unsuspecting individuals were recruited to attend these parties. Some individuals
were recruited in various cities and were paid to fly
in to attend these functions. On Memorial Day weekend of
twenty fourteen, Plaintiff and two of her friends visited Las
Vegas to stay at the Hotel Rio. While there, Plaintiff
contacted various people she had met in the entertainment industry
(09:55):
in order to find out if any cool events would
be taking place. One such contact was an entertainer who
identified himself as International Smoove, who plaintiff had met a
few years prior at a party in Miami. Plaintiff was
never able to ascertain his legal name, but connected with
him through Instagram. Using that moniker, Plaintiff discovered that Smoove
(10:18):
was in Las Vegas through his Instagram stories, and after
making contact with him, discovered that he worked for Colmbs
as a party promoter. Smooth invited plaintiff to an exclusive
party at Las Vegas popular poolside lounge called Rehab. Smooth
made it clear that this was an exclusive celebrity party
and plaintiff's two friends were not invited. Only Plaintiff. Despite
(10:42):
having some awkwardness with this prohibition, Plaintiff, with the encouragement
of her friends, decided to attend the party to potentially
network with the influential people that were there. While at
the party, Plaintiff met many celebrities, including Mary J. Blige,
Little Kim, and Nicki Minaj, and she saw more that
she didn't meet. Plaintiff took pictures or videos with many
(11:04):
of these celebrities and posted them to her private Instagram page.
Plaintiff was introduced to Colmes, who greeted her and said
he hoped she had a lot of fun at the party. Eventually,
the party at Club Rehab died down and Plaintiff was
invited by Smooth to an after party at Combs Suite
at the Planet Hollywood Hotel. While there, Plaintiff spoke to
(11:26):
Colmbs again and he directed her to a bar area
with tens of dozens of open bottles of his Sarrock
branded vodka. Colmbs directed Plaintiff to grab a bottle and
help herself. Plaintiff also took videos of Colmbs at the
party and posted them to her Instagram. Stills from the
videos are shown below. Plaintiff did as was suggested by
(11:47):
Colmbs took a few SIPs of what she thought to
be vodka from one of the open bottles, but about
forty minutes later, after having one to two drinks from
the Sarrock bottle, plaintiff began to feel nauseated and dizzy,
slowly losing control of her motor functions. This occurred at
around eight p m in the evening. A photograph of
an actual exemplary container used by Combs and or his
(12:09):
agent's employees to insert G h B and alcoholic drinks
is seen below. Plaintiff informed Smooth that she did not
feel well and likely would need to leave the party soon.
Smooth directed her to an empty bedroom in the suite
and told her to lie down there until she felt better.
He told her not to worry about being disturbed because
(12:30):
the door would be locked. The next thing plaintiff recalls
is waking up the following morning feeling very groggy and sore.
Her entire body hurt and it felt difficult to move.
As soon as she awoke, she saw Combs in the
corner of the room, shirtless and yelling loudly and with
animation at someone over the phone. He was the only
(12:51):
person in the room with her, and it was clear
that someone else had been in bed with her. At
of fear and confusion, Plaintiff remained silent and still until
Colmbs left the room and she heard the front door
to the sweet clothes. Plaintiff eventually got up and realized
she was naked and her general soreness was more aggravated
in her general area. Plaintiff was horrified to realize that
(13:15):
she was raped by Colms. She found her belongings, including
her dead cell phone, and made her way back to
the hotel rio where her friends were staying. Upon arriving
at the hotel real, plaintiff's friends were shocked to see
the state she was in. They tried to help her.
Plaintiff indicated that all she wanted to do was shower
and rest. Plaintiff ended up sleeping for two entire days.
(13:38):
After that, she only remembered vague glimpses of her friends
trying to wake her up and offer her water. Afterwards,
her friends told her that they did her their best
to take care of her during this time, but she
was largely incoherent. In the aftermath of the assault, Plaintiff
struggled with intense emotional pain and mental health issues, Feeling
disgusted and deeply depressed. Plaintiff has experienced significant impact on
(14:03):
her personal life. She struggles to maintain relationships or a
being party atmospheres due to the assault and not a
day goes by for plaintiff without thinking of the traumatic incident.
First cause of action battery under Nevada law, Defendant Colms.
Plaintiff hereby incorporates each of the foregoing paragraphs as a
fully set fourth here In, as alleged here in, defending
(14:26):
Combs willfully and unlawfully use physical force on plaintiff. In
using wilful and unlawful force on plaintiff, defendant Combs intended
to cause a harmful or offensive contact. The harmful and
offensive contact intended by defendant Combs in fact occurred. The
harmful and defensive contact caused plaintiff to suffer harm as
(14:48):
a result of defendant's actions. Plaintiff suffered damages in an
amount to be determined at trial. As a result of

of the foregoing paragraphs as a fully set forth here
in by drugging plaintiff as alleged here in, Defending Colms
acted with the intention of confining plaintiff within boundaries fixed
by defending Colms. Plaintiff did not and could not consent
(15:31):
to the confinement, which violated Plaintiff's right to be free
from restraint of movement. Plaintiff was raped while confined and
therefore suffered substantial harm from the confinement. The confinement allowed
defendant Colms rape a plaintiff to occur, and accordingly, the
confinement was approximate cause of Plaintiff's harm. The Comb's business
(15:51):
enabled and conspired with Combs to commit the crime of
falsely imprisoning plaintiff because Coms sexually assaulted plaintiff at a
party related to or referencing Colm's business. On information and belief,
Colms businesses routinely committed sexual assault and gender motivated violence,
as detailed in other civil lawsuits, to further the business
(16:13):
purpose of Calm's enterprise. Given Colm's long standing pattern and
practice of committing sexual violence against women, the Colm's business
had or should have had knowledge of Calms using such
parties and venues for this unlawful conduct, and did nothing
to stop it on information and belief, Plaintiff alleges that
defend an organizational dose one through ten inclusive are other
(16:36):
parties not yet identified who have enabled and conspired with
Combs to commit the crime of violence motivated by gender
in ways articulated above and or in other ways. On
information and belief. Plaintiff alleges at defendant individual dose one
through ten inclusive are other parties not yet identified who
have enabled and conspired with Combs to commit the crime
(16:57):
of violence motivated by gender in the way articulated above,
and or in other ways. As a result of Defendant's actions,
plaintiffs suffered damages in an amount to be determined that trial.
As a result. In Nevada Senate Bill one twenty nine,
signed into law in June of twenty twenty three, there
is no applicable statute of limitations for victims of sexual
(17:19):
abuse to sue and tort for claims arising from the
sexual abuse. Wherefore, plaintiff respectfully requests the judgment be entered
