Sean “Diddy” Combs faces a new $15 million sexual assault lawsuit as his legal troubles continue to grow.
LaTroya Grayson claimed Diddy sexually assaulted her when she was 23, according to a civil complaint filed Friday and obtained by Fox News Digital. The woman, who resides in Oklahoma, alleged that she won an invitation to a party hosted by the rap mogul in 2006.
Grayson attended a “black party” on Oct. 16, 2006, and then woke up in the hospital the next morning, according to the court document. “When (Grayson) returned to her hotel, she called a friend and explained that she wasn’t sure what had happened to her, but (she) believed she was drugged, assaulted and robbed without remembering how she got to the hospital as her last time. My memory was being at Diddy’s black party.”

“Ms. Grayson admits that she does not remember the events alleged in her complaint, does not know who was allegedly involved, and has never spoken to Mr. Combs. Her accusations against him are pure fiction.”
The woman did not remember anything about what happened after consuming two “prepared drinks” at the party.
He stated that when he woke up in the hospital “his shirt was torn, his underwear was missing, he was not wearing shoes and the money he had traveled with had been stolen.”
After returning to Oklahoma, Grayson allegedly received a phone call from an anonymous woman who “threatened (Grayson) that any attempt to investigate anything about (her) assault would be futile because defendant Combs was a ‘celebrity’ and that ( Grayson) “I’d just be wasting my time.”
In the filing, Grayson included hotel receipts along with copies of flight information about his trip from Oklahoma to New York City.

A representative for Combs claimed that Grayson’s allegations are “pure fiction” and never happened.
“Mr. Combs has never sexually assaulted anyone or participated in sex trafficking,” the statement provided to Fox News Digital read. “Ms. Grayson admits that she does not remember the events alleged in her complaint, does not know who was allegedly involved and has never spoken to Mr. Combs. Her accusations against him are pure fiction. As we have said before, Mr. Combs “Coms cannot respond to all unfounded lawsuits and lawyer-driven money grabs. “He has faith in the judicial process, in which the facts will be separated from opportunistic lies like these.”

Diddy faces several civil sexual assault lawsuits, including one in which he and “Celebrity A” were accused of raping a 13-year-old girl.
Jay-Z was added to the lawsuit against Combs on December 8. The amended complaint named the rap mogul as “Celebrity A.”
In the new version of the lawsuit, the 13-year-old became disoriented and found a bedroom to rest after allegedly consuming a drink. Jay-Z, Diddy and “Celebrity B” apparently followed the girl into the room. She “immediately recognized the three celebrities,” according to the court document.
