Diddy Served Amended Assault Lawsuit in Custody as Judge Sets January Hearing

The amended filing incorporates Ventura’s 2016 texts, broadening the alleged timeframe.

Overview

  • Bryana Bongolan filed an amended complaint on Oct. 14 and had it delivered to the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, with confirmation of Combs’ receipt still pending.
  • The filing includes excerpts of a Sept. 30, 2016 text from Cassie Ventura to Combs’ then–chief of staff describing Bongolan being choked and held over a balcony.
  • After defense records challenged the original date, the complaint now alleges the incident occurred “in or about September 2016.”
  • The lawsuit names corporate entities tied to Combs, including Bad Boy Records, and a Los Angeles judge set a follow-up hearing for Jan. 22, 2026.
  • Combs is serving a 50‑month federal sentence and was recently transferred to FCI Fort Dix, and his representatives have previously denied Bongolan’s allegations.
