Tony Buzbee, the attorney representing over 100 individuals accusing Sean "Diddy" Combs of sexual assault, is now facing legal troubles of his own.
According to TMZ, Buzbee has been accused of assault by a woman identified as Jane Doe in a lawsuit filed against him.
The woman, who previously hired Buzbee to represent her in a divorce case, claims the lawyer assaulted her in a public setting. The filing alleges that Buzbee, in a "fit of rage," pushed a champagne flute into her face, chipping her tooth. She further claims to have medical records to support her injuries and accuses Buzbee of malpractice, which she says cost her millions.
Jeremy Bohrer, the woman's attorney, criticized Buzbee in a statement to TMZ, saying, “Tony Buzbee is a hypocrite. There is nothing worse than when a black hat masquerades as a white hat.”
In response, Buzbee dismissed the allegations, calling them baseless. "That’s crazy fiction. Like really crazy. Like ridiculously crazy,” he told TMZ. He suggested the case might be linked to another recent lawsuit accusing him of extortion by a former associate of Diddy.
The extortion suit alleges Buzbee threatened to fabricate sexual assault allegations against the plaintiff, including claims of child rape, if demands were not met.
Buzbee, however, remains defiant. “We won’t be bullied or silenced by frivolous cases being filed against me or against my clients. All of this is false, and I won’t tolerate defamation,” he said.
The cases add new layers of controversy as Buzbee continues to represent clients in the high-profile sexual assault case against Sean “Diddy” Combs.Tony Buzbee, the attorney representing over 100 individuals accusing Sean "Diddy" Combs of sexual assault, is now facing legal troubles of his own.
