Joseph Sherman, formerly a bodyguard for Sean "Diddy" Combs, has filed a defamation lawsuit against Thalia Graves and her attorney, Gloria Allred. This legal action follows Graves' allegations that, in 2001, both Combs and Sherman drugged, bound, and raped her at a Bad Boy Entertainment recording studio, recording the assault and distributing it as pornography.
In his lawsuit, Sherman asserts that he ceased working for Combs in 1999 and has never met Graves, labeling her claims as "utterly and entirely false." He contends that Graves contacted him in November 2023, seeking his cooperation as a witness against Combs in exchange for excluding him from legal proceedings. Sherman includes alleged messages from Graves in his lawsuit to support this claim.
Sherman argues that the accusations have caused significant harm to his reputation and livelihood. His lawsuit includes counts of defamation, emotional distress, negligence, and abuse of process against Graves, Allred, and other associated parties.
This countersuit emerges amid a series of legal challenges facing Combs, who was arrested in September 2024 on charges including sex trafficking and racketeering. Graves' lawsuit is among nearly 30 filed against Combs and his associates, with Sherman's countersuit being the first from a defendant in these cases.
