In a stunning new legal twist, Danity Kane alum Dawn Richard is taking on Sean “Diddy” Combs once again — and this time, the allegations reach all the way inside a federal prison.
According to newly filed court documents on November 5, 2025, Richard’s attorneys claim that Diddy tampered with a key witness in her civil case while incarcerated. The alleged incident, said to have occurred in September 2024, underscores what prosecutors have long warned: that Combs’ influence and intimidation didn’t stop at conviction.
Her legal team wrote that “there is no indication that Combs’ ability or willingness to act on his threats ever ceased,” arguing that even from behind bars, the Bad Boy mogul continued to manipulate the narrative and maintain control. Prosecutors in Diddy’s federal case echoed similar concerns last year, citing a “pattern of witness tampering, obstruction, and coercion” when opposing his bail — which the court denied four separate times.
Dawn Richard’s lawsuit claims years of physical and emotional abuse, retaliation, and intimidation during her time under Diddy’s label. She says the fear never ended — and that his alleged attempts to interfere from prison prove it.
Meanwhile, Diddy’s legal team continues to deny all wrongdoing, calling these civil suits opportunistic. But with each new filing, the walls around his empire seem to tighten.
In this Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski breakdown, we go inside the new court filings, the psychological dynamics of control, and what this could mean for Diddy’s appeal, Dawn Richard’s case, and the larger reckoning shaking the entertainment industry.
