Federal Judge Dismisses Dawn Richard's Lawsuit Against Sean Combs

A federal judge dismissed all 18 claims in Dawn Richard's sexual abuse and breach of contract lawsuit against Sean "Diddy" Combs. Rolling Stone reported that U.S. District Judge Katherine Polk Failla ruled on June 12, dismissing all causes of action, though one claim was permitted to be refiled. Pitchfork noted that the judge ruled the statute of limitations prevented Richard from pursuing the claims, rejecting her lawyers' argument that death threats and duress had prevented timely action.
