Jay-Z Sues Rape Accuser and Lawyer Tony Buzbee After $20M Loss
Jay-Z filed a lawsuit against Jane Doe and her attorneys, Anthony Buzbee and David Fortney, as well as Buzbee’s law firm, after she dropped her sexual assault suit against him and Sean “Diddy” Combs.
Jay-Z’s legal team called Jane Doe’s suit a “false, malicious, strategically and tactically calculated and timed to inflict maximum pain and suffering on Mr. Carter.” Jane Doe allegedly told Buzbee that Jay-Z “did not sexually assault [her],” but Buzbee purportedly persuaded her to continue with the lawsuit for financial gain.
Buzbee claimed that Jay-Z and his team had been attempting to intimidate Doe for “weeks” to get her to recant her story, but Doe “stands by her claims.” Jay-Z issued a statement after Doe withdrew her lawsuit, stating, “The frivolous, fictitious and appalling allegations have been dismissed. This civil suit was without merit and never going anywhere.”
