Jay-Z Sues Accuser After Recording Allegedly Contradicts Assault Claim

Jane Doe, who accused Jay-Z of sexual assault, was reportedly recorded denying the allegations and saying her lawyer pressured her to sue.

Jane Doe, who accused Jay-Z and Sean Combs of sexual assault in 2000, was recorded stating Jay-Z did not assault her and that her lawyer, Tony Buzbee, encouraged her to file the lawsuit.
The recording, made by private investigators for Jay-Z, allegedly shows Doe admitting inconsistencies in her story and denying that Jay-Z was involved in any sexual acts.
Doe's lawyer, Tony Buzbee, claims the recording is fabricated and maintains that Doe has never wavered in her allegations against Jay-Z.
Jay-Z has filed defamation lawsuits against both Jane Doe and Tony Buzbee, alleging the accusations caused significant harm to his reputation and family.
The initial lawsuit against Jay-Z and Combs was dropped in February, with Jay-Z's legal team asserting there was no settlement or out-of-court agreement involved.
