The music mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs was hit Thursday with a lawsuit accusing him of raping and sex trafficking a younger female performer over the course of a decade.

Combs’ accuser, Casandra Ventura, in a statement, said, “After years in silence and darkness, I am finally ready to tell my story, and to speak up on behalf of myself and for the benefit of other women who face violence and abuse in their relationships.”

“With the expiration of New York’s Adult Survivors Act fast approaching, it became clear that this was an opportunity to speak up about the trauma I have experienced and that I will be recovering from for the rest of my life,” Ventura said.

Ben Brafman, a lawyer for Combs, did not immediately respond to a request for comment about Ventura’s allegations.
