Jay-Z Demands Identity of Accuser in Lawsuit

Rapper Jay-Z is demanding the identity of a woman, referred to as Jane Doe, who has accused him and Sean 'Diddy' Combs of raping her when she was 13 years old at a 2000 afterparty. In court filings, Jay-Z's attorney argues that Doe, now 37, has not justified her anonymity and that her claims tarnish Jay-Z's reputation without accountability. The lawsuit was originally filed against Combs and later amended to include Jay-Z, who has denied the allegations and labeled them as extortion. Jay-Z's legal team is seeking either the dismissal of the lawsuit or the revelation of Doe's identity, asserting fair legal practice requires transparency. The accuser's attorney, Tony Buzbee, contested Jay-Z's claims, stating that the allegations are serious and that the plaintiff should not be bullied into revealing her identity. Jay-Z has vowed to fight the claims without settling, accusing Buzbee of fraud and harassment.
