It took just one day for Sean Combs to settle a bombshell lawsuit in November that accused him of rape and physical abuse. But it turns out that Mr. Combs’s problems were only beginning. For years, accusations of violence trailed Mr. Combs, who since the 1990s has been known as Puff Daddy and Diddy. But the suit in November, filed by his former girlfriend Casandra Ventura — who makes music as the singer Cassie — seemed to open the floodgates. And a raid by federal authorities at two of his homes on Monday suggested that authorities are considering possible criminal charges.

NEW YORK (AP) — Sean “Diddy” Combs, was accused in a lawsuit Thursday of subjecting R&B singer Cassie to a yearslong relationship that included beatings and rape. Ventura, now 37 herself, said Combs, now 54, began the pattern of abuse began as soon as their relationship did. The suit alleges that, “prone to uncontrollable rage,” he subjected her to "savage" beatings in which he punched, kicked and stomped her. He and Ventura began dating in 2007 and had an on-and-off relationship for more than a decade. This year, he released his fifth studio album “The Love Album: Off the Grid,” which earned two Grammy nominations this month.
