Audio recording emerges in lawsuit against Sean “Diddy” Combs and son

New audio has surfaced as

part of a lawsuit

that accuses Christian Homes

Sean Diddy Combs,

his son of sexual assault.

The music mogul is not accused

of sexual assault in the lawsuit,

but is included

over allegations of liability

and aiding and abetting.

The lawsuit cites audio

from a makeshift

recording studio on the yacht

where the alleged assault happened.

This is the latest

in a series of lawsuits

filed against the rap

mogul and businessman.

Both men,

father and son, deny

the allegations against them.

CNN national correspondent

Camilo Bernal

joining me

live with details on this case.

What more are you learning?

Hey, Fred.

So in this audio

that CNN has,

listen to, you can specifically hear

the accuser

who alleges that she was being forced

to take this tequila shot

that she believed was laced with drugs.

And in the audio,

you can hear her asking

Christian Combs if she was being drugged.

And he answers, take the shot.

Now, just to put things into perspective,

the accuser was a crew member

on the yacht. She was a bartender.

And she says that shortly

after this incident with the shot,

she says she was cornered in a room.

She says things became

aggressive and physical and then says

that Christian Combs

forced himself on her

and then says that it wasn't

until another employee on the yacht

came in to this room

that the abuse

that she is alleging

and alleging in this 31

page lawsuit stopped.

And she says it only stopped

because that person came into the room.

Now, I want to read

part of

what the accuser's attorney

is saying right now.

What he's saying is defendant

Sean Combs turned

what was sold

as a wholesome family excursion

into a hedonistic environment.

It resulted in an unexpected increase

in workload for her

and for her colleagues,

as well as unwanted exposure to unlawful

drug use, sex work and general chaos.

Now, why are they naming Diddy

in all of this?

And it is partially

because he was releasing that out.

Now, he is not accused of sexual assault,

but he is accused in this

lawsuit of liability

and aiding

and abetting

because he was the one renting the yacht.

Now, his attorney

or actually the attorney for both men

also speaking out

and denying

these allegations, saying this

this complaint is filled

with manufactured lies

and irrelevant facts.

We will be filing a motion

to dismiss this outrageous claim.

Again, they have continued to say

that this is something

that they will fight,

that they are innocent in all of this.

And we'll have to wait and see

how this plays out in court.

If it gets to court

or if it gets settled at some point,

which has been the case

with a previous lawsuit.

But again, we'll have to wait

and see what happens

as Diddy and his son

continue to say they're innocent

and the victims here

continue to say

that they were sexually assaulted Fred.

And so while music mogul Combs

isn't accused of sexual assault

in the lawsuit,

he has been accused of a range

of sexual misconduct

in other separate lawsuits.

How might that play into this?

Yeah, as I mentioned,

one of the lawsuits was settled,

but there are others

that are currently pending. Right.

And so there's a lot of the details

that we've learned.

And attorneys

say that there's audio

and video of these alleged crimes

or at least some of the alleged crimes.

You're seeing some of those cases there.

The one with Cassie was

the one that was settled.

But there are other ones

that will still have to wait

and see how they play out.

And of course,

we all saw

just last

month, as did his homes

in both Miami and Los Angeles

were the target

of a federal investigation.

And we saw that all play out on video

last month.

But again, it's important

to point out

that Diddy continues

to say that he is innocent.

They said this was a gross

overuse of military level force

and they say that he is innocent

and will continue to fight

to defend his name. Fred.

All right.

Give me a number now. Thank you so much.

Thank you.
