Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs legal battles continue to amass as the music mogul has been accused of paying $1 million for the late rapper, Tupac Shakur’s assassination by suspect Duane “Keefe D” Davis, who was arrested for the murder in 2023.

Although this is not a surprising development, Diddy has maintained his innocence.

In the lawsuit filed on Thursday (July 18), Diddy is named 77 times by his various pseudonyms: Puffy, Puff Daddy, Puff and his government name, Sean Combs.

According to the prosecutors, the rivalry between Bad Boy Records on the East Coast and Death Row Records on the West Coast, headed up by Marion “Suge” Knight, was heated up prior to Tupac Shakur’s shooting.

The legal files state that, “Defendant [Keefe] has asserted publicly that he only told on himself and wasn’t trying to provide evidence against anyone else in his conversations with police. However, this statement belies this claim, as he suggested that Sean Combs paid Eric Von Martin a million dollars for the killings.”

In another document, Davis alleges that he alongside Diddy were friends with the South Side Crips gang that wanted Tupac dead, adding that the Crips drove by Shakur and Knight in Las Vegas after a Mike Tyson fight “accidentally” and his nephew, Orlando “Baby Lane” Anderson, shot at them both.

Meanwhile, when the police department asked Davis whether Diddy played a role in the shooting, Davis replied, “Yeah, I think he did.”

The defendant further claims that after the incident, Diddy paid them for the shooting.

“I wish I never met Puff Daddy, period. I swear to God…He messed up my life, man. I was, I was rich, up under the radar, all that, man…it’s all gone.” Davis said.

Additionally, the latest bail request filed by Davis was rejected over concerns about the source of the $112,500 bail bond.

9News Entertainment reports that it’s still unknown if the case will result to a Diddy subpoena or indictment.
