Diddy Asks Judge To Dismiss Crystal McKinney Sexual Assault Lawsuit Claims Statute Of Limitations

Diddy's lawyers for Bad Boy Entertainment and Daddy's House Recording fired off a letter in response to Crystal McKinney's sexual assault lawsuit saying the claims under the Victims of Gender-Motivated Violence Protection Law expired in 2010, seven years after McKinney claims Diddy assaulted her. While her lawyers cited a local government ordinance that created a revival period for claims, Diddy's team says New York State Law takes precedence and state law says the time has come and gone for CM to make her claim. The letter also argues that Bad Boy and Diddy's other companies can't be sued because they didn't facilitate the alleged misconduct so they can't be held liable for it. Crystal McKinney filed her suit back in May claiming she was invited to a Men's Fashion Week event at Cipriani Downtown in NYC where she says she met Diddy and he invited her back to his studio. At the studio, Crystal says she drank Hennessy and smoked with Diddy and his crew and, felt like she was floating and, she claims the joint may have been laced. She says Diddy then took her into the bathroom and forced her to perform oral sex on him after which she says she was blackballed from modeling leading to a suicide attempt the following year. Diddy who was arrested Monday for sex trafficking has denied all claims of misconduct against him.
