(NewsNation) — Ashley Parham, who says she was gang-raped by Sean “Diddy” Combs and members of his entourage, shared her story in an exclusive “Banfield” interview.
Parham discussed the harrowing allegations from a civil lawsuit she filed against Combs last October.
Parham, who asked for her appearance to remain anonymous, said Combs made threats that he would human traffic her and that they could “take [her] anywhere and sell” her.
In the lawsuit, Parham alleges she was drugged and gang-raped by Diddy and members of his entourage at a private home in the Bay Area in 2018. After the rape, she said, she slashed Diddy with a knife and was shot at before narrowly escaping with her life.
“They took turns raping me and Sean Combs raped me anally,” Parham told Banfield.
Diddy accuser: Rape was ‘payback’ for Tupac Shakur murder accusation
The lawsuit filed by Parham alleges Combs engaged in a “violent gangbang style rape,” using a TV remote as a form of payback after she told him she believed he “had something to do with the murder of rapper Tupac Shakur.”
The complaint obtained by NewsNation details horrific details of the alleged assault, describing how Parham was drugged and then raped by multiple men.
Parham: Diddy’s mom said to take the hush money
Parham claims after Combs raped her, he asked, “Why haven’t we ever partied like this before?”
“That’s when I got enraged. This is not a party,” Parham said. “You raped me, and he attempted to bribe me with some money, and I said no. You raped me. I’m not gonna stay silent on this.”
Parham said Combs then called his mother on Facetime, who yelled not to hurt her son.
“I yelled back, ‘He raped me.’ She told me to take the money and shut up.”
Diddy accuser: Police ‘did nothing’
Parham said she managed to escape the party after neighbors began making noise complaints.
“The neighbor came by to see what was going on, and the bodyguard turned a gun on him and told him to go away,” Parham said. “But then he came back and created the distraction for me to actually run.”
Parham said she ran toward the neighbor’s house and then Combs allegedly started firing a gun at her.
The neighbor jumped behind a car and she followed him to escape. According to Parham, the neighbor called the police, but when an officer showed up he “couldn’t have cared less” about what Parham said.
The police officer “didn’t offer me help or an ambulance. I told him that Sean Combs had raped me and he just left me,” Parham said.
Parham also claims she reported the rape to three police departments, including those in Walnut Creek and Orinda, California.
Diddy accuser returned, spent night at alleged rape scene
After speaking with police, Parham said she went back to the alleged rape scene to get her belongings but they were no longer there.
She acknowledged that her actions might not make sense to others.
“I know that doesn’t make any sense to people. But the Orinda hills are incredibly dark and windy hills. The idea of running half naked down to police who weren’t gonna help me anyway wasn’t gonna happen,” she said. “I just lost faith in humanity and just lied in bed until I fell asleep.”
When she woke up, Parham said Combs returned her belongings and acted as if nothing had happened.
Diddy denies accusations
Combs firmly denies the accusations and his attorneys provided this statement: “As the Contra Costa Sheriff’s Department confirmed, her report was thoroughly investigated and it was determined the claims were ‘unfounded.’ Mr. Combs was nowhere near Orinda, California, on the day she claims she was assaulted.”
The attorneys’ statement went on to say: “There is no evidence that Mr. Combs was ever in the same room as Ms. Parham. She is completely unbelievable and no sane person who views the evidence will credit her story.”
