Jay-Z is fighting back against the now-dismissed rape lawsuit that falsely accused him of sexual assault; claiming a private investigator uncovered proof that the Jane Doe accuser knew he wasn’t involved but was allegedly pressured by attorney Tony Buzbee to file the case anyway.
According to an affidavit filed by investigator Charlotte Henderson, the woman admitted that she originally only wanted to sue Sean “Diddy” Combs for an alleged 2000 rape but says Buzbee “pushed me” to include Jay-Z in the lawsuit.
Henderson, who met with the woman at her home in Alabama on February 21, 2025, says Jane Doe stated multiple times that Jay-Z was at the party where the alleged assault occurred but did not participate in it. Despite that, Buzbee still filed the lawsuit, which was later dropped after media outlets exposed inconsistencies in the woman’s claims.
Henderson says the woman told her that Buzbee later claimed Jay-Z was trying to kill her, which is why she ultimately dismissed the lawsuit last month. However, Henderson noted that during their conversation, Jane Doe seemed calm and not fearful, even when asked if she’d be willing to sign an affidavit clearing Jay-Z’s name.
Instead, Doe reportedly asked, “But how does this help me?”
A second investigator, Ian Pillinger, also filed an affidavit stating he discovered that Jane Doe had recently been in a mental health facility; just 90 days before Buzbee sent a legal demand to Jay-Z on her behalf.
