**Diddy’s Legal Team Questions Expert Testimony on Sexual Assault Reporting**

In a controversial court filing, Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs' legal representatives challenge the validity of expert testimony regarding rape statistics.


The legal team's arguments have drawn criticism for their seeming inconsistency and for comparing rape reporting to unrelated crimes like drunk driving and tax evasion.


On April 25, 2025, Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs and his legal team submitted an opposition to expert witness Dr. Dawn Hughes in a federal case concerning sexual trafficking allegations against him. The filing has raised eyebrows due to its unusual arguments, leading to critics dubbing the attorneys as “the lame brains.” The team, which includes prominent lawyers like Teny Geragos and Marc Agnifilo, asserts that rape is not necessarily an underreported crime while arguing that other offenses such as drunk driving and tax evasion have even lower reporting rates, despite lacking coverage in various surveys.

The legal filing questions Hughes’ assertion that sexual assault remains underreported, challenging its relevance to the jury's considerations during the trial. “Hughes seeks to testify that rape is ‘underreported,’” the filing states, going on to dispute the importance of such claims in the current legal context dealing primarily with sex trafficking rather than rape.

Team Diddy’s filing dismisses Dr. Hughes' viewpoints as “extreme claims,” specifically critiquing her assertion that crimes against women are among the most underreported. The document suggests that expert testimonies from advocates in sexual assault and domestic violence cases are flawed and riddled with problems that undermine their credibility in court.

This latest legal maneuver by Team Diddy has prompted critics to claim an increasingly desperate strategy as the case unfolds, raising questions about their approach to handling one of the most sensitive issues in contemporary legal battles.
