"Diddy Lawsuit: Judge Denies Anonymity for Woman in Gang Rape Case"

A federal judge has ruled that the unnamed woman suing Sean "Diddy" Combs over allegations of "sex trafficking" and "gang rape" must reveal her identity as the case progresses, stating that generalized claims of harm do not justify her anonymity. The ruling, which will take effect after a pending motion to dismiss the lawsuit, comes amidst several abuse cases filed against the hip-hop mogul. Combs has strongly denied the allegations, while the accuser argued that media attention would result in further trauma. The judge sided with Combs, stating that the accuser had failed to show the particularized harm or vulnerabilities that would necessitate special status.
