Joseph Sherman, a former bodyguard for Sean "Diddy" Combs, has filed a defamation lawsuit against Thalia Graves following serious allegations of sexual assault.

The lawsuit responds to Graves' accusations that Sherman and Combs drugged and sexually assaulted her at the Bad Boy Records studio in 2001. Graves claims the incident was recorded and distributed without her consent.

Sherman filed the defamation lawsuit on November 8, 2024, strongly denying all allegations. He maintains that he has never met Graves and wasn't employed by Combs during the alleged incident timeframe.

The legal filing argues that Graves' unverified accusations have severely damaged Sherman's personal and professional reputation. His legal team emphasizes the importance of evidence-based accusations in such serious matters.

The case has garnered significant public attention, particularly given its connection to Sean "Diddy" Combs, who faces separate legal challenges. While some support Graves' allegations, others defend Sherman's right to protect his reputation.

As the case progresses through the legal system, it will likely set important precedents regarding the balance between protecting alleged victims and preserving the rights of the accused. Both parties await their day in court, where evidence will be crucial in determining the outcome of this high-profile defamation case.
