Music mogul Sean "Diddy" Combs has been named in a new lawsuit alleging the rape of a 16-year-old girl in 2000, adding to a growing list of sexual misconduct accusations against him. The plaintiff, identified as Jane Doe, claims that as a high school student in Lower Manhattan, she encountered Combs while working as a babysitter in the same apartment building where Combs' then-romantic partner resided. According to the lawsuit, Combs offered the teenager a ride home multiple times, which she initially declined. After persistent offers, she accepted. Instead of taking her home, the lawsuit alleges that Combs, accompanied by two unnamed male employees, drove her to a different location. During the ride, she was offered a drink to "calm her down," which led her to feel "groggy" and "unsteady." The plaintiff alleges that Combs then raped her before she was returned to her apartment building and left in the lobby. This lawsuit is among more than 30 filed against Combs, accusing him of various forms of sexual misconduct. Combs' legal team has consistently denied these allegations. In a statement to PEOPLE, his attorneys asserted: "No matter how many lawsuits are filed, it won't change the fact that Mr. Combs has never sexually assaulted, or sex trafficked anyone—man or woman, adult or minor." They emphasized confidence in the judicial process, stating that Combs "is confident he will prevail in court." Currently, Combs is detained in Brooklyn's Metropolitan Detention Center, awaiting trial on federal sex trafficking and racketeering charges. He has pleaded not guilty to these charges, with the trial scheduled for May 5, 2025. The mounting legal challenges have significantly impacted Combs' public image and business ventures. Once a dominant figure in the music industry, his reputation has been marred by these serious allegations. The entertainment community and the public are closely monitoring the developments in these cases. The recent lawsuit also highlights the broader issue of sexual misconduct within the entertainment industry, prompting discussions about power dynamics and the protection of minors. As the legal proceedings continue, the focus remains on the testimonies of the accusers and the defense mounted by Combs' legal team. The outcome of these cases may have far-reaching implications for the industry and for survivors seeking justice. Combs' attorneys have reiterated their stance, stating: "We live in a world where anyone can file a lawsuit for any reason. Fortunately, a fair and impartial judicial process exists to find the truth, and Mr. Combs is confident he will prevail in court." As the trial date approaches, both sides are preparing for a legal battle that will be closely watched by many. The allegations against Combs span decades, with accusers coming forward with stories of abuse, coercion, and assault. The legal proceedings are expected to shed light on these claims and determine the veracity of the accusations. The entertainment industry continues to grapple with issues of misconduct, and the cases against Combs serve as a reminder of the importance of accountability and justice for survivors. As the situation unfolds, further updates will provide insight into the legal strategies employed and the responses from both the accusers and the defense.

According to the complaint, after completing a babysitting job in Lower Manhattan, Combs offered her a ride home, which she initially declined but later accepted. Instead of taking her home, Combs and his associates allegedly transported her to another location, provided her with a drink that caused grogginess, and then Combs purportedly raped her. Following the assault, she claims she was returned to her apartment building. Combs' legal representatives have denied these allegations, asserting that he has never engaged in any form of sexual assault or sex trafficking.(commercial at 7:42)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Diddy 'raped teenage babysitter with two other men', bombshell new lawsuit claims | Daily Mail Online

Almost 100 years after New York City officials first considered putting tolls on the East River bridges, drivers are finally being charged to enter Midtown and Lower Manhattan. With a new policy chapter being written, it will likely take time to determine how successful the program is and whether it will need modifications. This week, NY1's Errol Louis was joined by two people who figured heavily in congestion pricing's implementation: MTA Chairman and CEO Janno Lieber and Sam Schwartz, popularly known as “Gridlock Sam,” whose work combatting traffic in Manhattan dates back more than 50 years. The two men highlighted different goals. Lieber discussed how the program is expected to pay for much-needed infrastructure improvements within the city's subway system, while Schwartz is hoping for less traffic and shorter emergency response times.

Curtis Sliwa shares how Scott LoBaido, a relentless patriot, staged a dramatic protest against NYC's congestion pricing at 61st and Broadway. Scott, coached by Curtis, used creative civil disobedience to express his anger over the $9 fee imposed on drivers entering Lower Manhattan. He was arrested after displaying middle finger symbols at congestion pricing cameras. Sliwa criticizes NYC officials, including MTA Chairman Janno Lieber and Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch, for misleading crime stats and poor governance. The script also touches on political tensions involving Eric Adams and Andrew Cuomo, and mentions other controversial topics such as police overtime and public safety.

fWotD Episode 2798: 1 Wall Street Welcome to Featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia’s finest articles.The featured article for Wednesday, 1 January 2025 is 1 Wall Street.1 Wall Street (also known as the Irving Trust Company Building, the Bank of New York Building, and the BNY Mellon Building) is a skyscraper in the Financial District of Lower Manhattan in New York City, United States. Designed in the Art Deco style, the building is 654 feet (199 m) tall and consists of two sections. The original 50-story building was designed by Ralph Thomas Walker of the firm Voorhees, Gmelin and Walker and constructed between 1929 and 1931 for Irving Trust, an early-20th-century American bank. A 28-story annex to the south (later expanded to 36 stories) was designed by successor firm Voorhees, Walker, Smith, Smith & Haines and built between 1963 and 1965.The building occupies a full city block between Broadway, Wall Street, New Street, and Exchange Place. The limestone facade consists of slight inwardly-curved bays with fluting to resemble curtains. On the lower stories are narrow windows and elaborate entrances. The massing of 1 Wall Street incorporates numerous small setbacks, and there are chamfers at the corners of the original building. The top of the original building consists of a freestanding tower with fluted windowless bays. The facade of the annex is crafted in a style reminiscent of the original structure. The original building has an ornate lobby, known as the Red Room, with colored mosaics. Originally, the 10th through 45th floors were rented to outside tenants, while the other floors contained offices, lounges, and other spaces for Irving Trust. After 1 Wall Street was converted to a residential building, the upper stories were divided into 566 condominium apartments.At the time of its construction, 1 Wall Street occupied what was one of the most valuable plots in the city. The building replaced three previous structures, including the Manhattan Life Insurance Building, which was once the world's tallest building. After Irving Trust was acquired by the Bank of New York (BNY) in 1988, 1 Wall Street served as the global headquarters of BNY and its successor BNY Mellon through 2015. After the developer Harry Macklowe purchased the building, he renovated it from 2018 to 2023, converting the interior to residential units with some commercial space.The building is one of New York City's Art Deco landmarks, although architectural critics initially ignored it in favor of such buildings as the Empire State Building and the Chrysler Building. The exterior of the building's original section was designated as a city landmark in 2001, and the Red Room's interior was similarly designated in 2024. In addition, the structure is a contributing property to the Wall Street Historic District, a National Register of Historic Places district created in 2007.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 01:10 UTC on Wednesday, 1 January 2025.For the full current version of the article, see 1 Wall Street on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Arthur.

Luigi Mangione, the man accused of fatally gunning down health insurance executive Brian Thompson on a Manhattan street, pleaded not guilty on Monday to New York state murder charges that brand him a terrorist.12月23日，被指控于曼哈顿街头枪杀医疗保险公司高管布莱恩·汤普森的男子路易吉·曼吉奥内，面对纽约州对其犯有谋杀罪和恐怖主义的指控，作出了无罪抗辩。Mangione, 26, was escorted into Judge Gregory Carro's 13th-floor courtroom in the New York state criminal courthouse in with a court officer on each arm, and a procession of a half dozen officers following him. He was in handcuffs and shackles, and wore a burgundy sweater over a white-collared shirt.当日，26岁的曼吉奥内身穿白领衬衫和酒红色毛衣，戴着手铐和脚镣，由两名法院警员带入纽约州刑事法院13楼的法庭，身后还紧跟着六名警员。Mangione leaned into a microphone and said "not guilty" when Carro asked how he pleaded to the 11-count indictment charging him with murder as an act of terrorism and weapons offenses.面对法官格雷戈里·卡罗就恐怖主义、谋杀罪及武器犯罪等11项指控的询问，曼吉奥内靠近麦克风回答：“无罪”。If convicted, he faces a maximum sentence of life in prison without the possibility of parole.如果被判有罪，他将面临终身监禁且不得假释的最高刑罚。Thompson, the CEO of UnitedHealth Group's insurance unit UnitedHealthcare, was shot dead on Dec 4 outside a hotel in midtown Manhattan where the company was gathering for an investor conference.12月4日，联合健康保险（联合健康集团子公司）的首席执行官汤普森在曼哈顿中城区一家酒店外遭枪击身亡，当时该公司正在此召开投资人大会。The brazen killing and ensuing five-day manhunt captivated Americans. While public officials have condemned the killing, some Americans who decry the steep costs of healthcare and insurance companies' power to deny paying for some medical treatments have feted Mangione as a folk hero.这起明目张胆的谋杀案及随后展开的五天搜捕行动引发了全美关注。尽管公职人员对此案表示谴责，但部分美国民众却将曼吉奥内奉为民间英雄，他们谴责高昂的医疗保健费用及保险公司拒赔某些医疗治疗的权力。Mangione was arrested at a McDonald's restaurant in Altoona, Pennsylvania, on Dec 9. After deciding last week not to fight extradition, he was transferred to New York, where he was led off a helicopter in Lower Manhattan by a large phalanx of police officers and New York City Mayor Eric Adams.12月9日，曼吉奥内在宾夕法尼亚州阿尔图纳的一家麦当劳餐厅被捕。在上周决定不抗争引渡后，他被转移到纽约，乘坐直升机前往曼哈顿下城。抵达现场部署了大批警员，纽约市长埃里克·亚当斯也亲临现场。That spectacle and other statements by public officials suggest Mangione may not be able to get a fair trial, his lawyer Karen Friedman Agnifilo said at Monday's hearing.在12月23日的听证会上，曼吉奥内的律师凯伦·弗里德曼·阿尼菲洛表示，这一浩大场面及公职人员的其他言论表明，曼吉奥内可能无法得到公正的审判。"They are treating him like he is some sort of political fodder, some sort of spectacle," Agnifilo said. "He is not a symbol, he is someone who is afforded a right to a fair trial."阿尼菲洛说：“他们把他当成了政治筹码和‘人间奇观'。但他并非什么象征，而是一个应享有公正审判权的个体。”Several dozen people gathered outside the courthouse in freezing temperatures to express support for Mangione and anger at healthcare companies.数十人在寒冷的天气中聚集在法院外，表达对曼吉奥内的支持和对医疗保健公司的愤怒。One person held a sign with the words "DENY, DEFEND, DEPOSE", a phrase that echoes tactics some accuse insurers of using to avoid paying out claims. Authorities say the words "deny", "delay", and "depose" were found written on shell casings at the crime scene.有人高举写有“拒绝、争辩、证词”的牌子，这些词常被批评人士用来描述医保公司逃避赔付的行为。而当局表示“拒绝、拖延、证词”是案发现场的子弹壳上刻的字样。Kara Hay, a 42-year-old schoolteacher, said she believed it was wrong for Mangione to be charged with terrorism.42岁的学校教师卡拉·海认为，曼吉奥内被指控犯有恐怖主义是错误的。"Shooting one CEO does not make him a terrorist, and I do not feel terrorized," said Hay, who held a sign reading "innocent until proven guilty".她举着“疑罪从无”牌子说道：“枪杀一名首席执行官并不意味着他就是恐怖分子，而且我并未感到害怕。”After the 30-minute hearing, officers once again shackled Mangione and led him out of the courtroom. He is being held at the Metropolitan Detention Center, a federal lockup in Brooklyn.30分钟的听证会结束后，曼吉奥内再次被戴上手铐和脚镣，由警员带出法庭。目前，他被关押在布鲁克林的联邦拘留所——大都市拘留中心。Carro set Mangione's next court appearance for Feb 21.法官卡罗将曼吉奥内的下一次出庭日期定于2月21日。brazenadj.毫不隐瞒的，明目张胆的extraditionn.引渡

This archeological finding redefines “full-bodied” wine. The oldest vintage is people? The oldest wine ever discovered in liquid form harbored an unlikely ingredient — cremated human remains, according to a study published recently in the Journal of Archaeological Science. In the headlines on #TheUpdate this Friday, the NYPD are searching for a man accused of stealing a gold-plated rose from a Manhattan church memorial honoring the victims of 9/11. A mysterious orb-like object appeared to zoom over the Hudson River and past Lower Manhattan in eerie footage shot by a local news helicopter. And in the ongoing transition of power, President-elect Donald Trump said he will nominate former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi to lead the Justice Department, turning to a longtime ally after his first choice, Matt Gaetz, withdrew his name from consideration amid scrutiny over sex trafficking allegations.

Rex Heuermann, the Long Island man accused in the Gilgo Beach murders, is facing charges in a seventh murder. Meanwhile, the NYPD has submitted a plan to monitor stop-and-frisk practices after a court deemed it unconstitutional over a decade ago. Also, the Campaign Finance Board is withholding public matching funds from Mayor Adams' reelection campaign, citing his criminal indictment and campaign violations. WNYC's Janae Pierre speaks with Paul Ryan, Executive Director of the Campaign Finance Board. Finally, the family of a migrant teen fatally stabbed in Lower Manhattan earlier this month is speaking out. WNYC's Brittany Kriegstein has the latest developments.

This week, Mayor Eric Adams announced he will work with the Trump administration on immigration policy. Trump has picked Tom Homan as his border czar, and the mayor seems willing to meet with him. Adams also suggested the Department of Justice is biased after fielding a question about Hunter Biden's pardon. NY1 investigative reporter Courtney Gross, political reporter Bobby Cuza and political director Bob Hardt weigh in on the mayor's recent support of the president-elect, as well as how far he will go before losing New York City Democrats, if he hasn't already. After that, jurors have been sitting in a courtroom in Lower Manhattan for weeks hearing hours of testimony regarding the death of Jordan Neely — a homeless man with mental illness who was killed on the subway last year. Daniel Penny is accused of criminally negligent homicide and manslaughter in the case. NY1 political reporter Dan Rivoli has been in the courtroom every day, and he joins the “Off Topic' team for an inside look at the trial ahead of a verdict.

HISTORY This Week returns with new episodes starting September 16th! In the meantime, listen to a favorite classic from the archives. September 11, 2001. On a clear and sunny day, Captain Richard Thornton is piloting his ferry boat back and forth between New Jersey and New York City. But when he hears an airplane flying too low to the ground, he knows something is wrong. After the World Trade Center's North Tower is struck, Thornton instinctively drives his ship down towards Lower Manhattan. He will soon be joined by countless other marine craft: ferries, fishing boats, tugboats, and more. With the roads, bridges, and trains that connect the island of Manhattan to the rest of the world shut down, this collection of civilian, commercial, and military boats manages to carry more than 500,000 survivors to safety. How did this impromptu evacuation, which was larger than Dunkirk during WWII, come together? And how does one ferry boat captain reflect on the shared sense of duty he felt on that fateful day?

In 1850, an impoverished twenty-five-year-old named Fredericka Mandelbaum came to New York in steerage and worked as a peddler on the streets of Lower Manhattan. By the 1870s she was a fixture of high society and an admired philanthropist. How was she able to ascend from tenement poverty to vast wealth?In the intervening years, “Marm” Mandelbaum had become the country's most notorious “fence”—a receiver of stolen goods—and a criminal mastermind. By the mid-1880s as much as $10 million worth of purloined luxury goods (nearly $300 million today) had passed through her Lower East Side shop. Called “the nucleus and center of the whole organization of crime,” she planned robberies of cash, gold and diamonds throughout the country.But Mandelbaum wasn't just a successful crook: She was a business visionary—one of the first entrepreneurs in America to systemize the scattershot enterprise of property crime. Handpicking a cadre of the finest bank robbers, housebreakers and shoplifters, she handled logistics and organized supply chains—turning theft into a viable, scalable business.To discuss this story is today's guest, Margalit Fox, author of The Talented Mrs. Mandelbaum. We look at a colorful fixture of Gilded Age New York—a city teeming with nefarious rogues, capitalist power brokers and Tammany Hall bigwigs, all straddling the line between underworld enterprise and “legitimate” commerce.
