Judge Orders Accuser to Reveal Identity in Diddy Case

A federal judge has ordered a woman, who filed a rape lawsuit against Sean 'Diddy' Combs under the pseudonym 'Jane Doe', to reveal her identity by November 13 or risk dismissal of her case. The plaintiff alleges that Combs sexually assaulted her in 2004 when she was 19, but Judge Mary Kay Vyskocil emphasized the need for transparency in legal proceedings, stating that the public's right to know and Combs' right to defend himself outweigh Doe's desire for anonymity. Although Doe's legal team cited the sensitive nature of the allegations and potential harm, the judge deemed the evidence insufficient to justify her anonymity. Combs, who faces multiple civil lawsuits and criminal charges related to sex trafficking, has denied all allegations and remains in detention. This ruling could set a precedent for other civil cases against Combs, highlighting the ongoing debate over privacy in high-profile legal matters.
