  • Man Sues Universal Studios After Being Stuck in a Tilted Position on Faulty ‘Harry Potter’ Ride for an Hour, Lawsuit Says

    Man Sues Universal Studios After Being Stuck in a Tilted Position on Faulty ‘Harry Potter’ Ride for an Hour, Lawsuit Says

    A Florida man is taking legal action against Universal Studios after he reportedly remained stuck on a roller coaster in a tilted position for an hour, per Law & Crime.

    In a lawsuit filed last week in the Ninth Judicial Circuit of Florida, Casey Causey alleges that while on the

    “Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey”

    roller coaster on July 2, 2023, the ride suddenly

    “came to an abrupt stop, stranding their cart midair at an angle that left him tilted backward and to the right.”

    “Plaintiff was stranded in this position for approximately one hour, after which the cart was moved to an upright position,”

    the complaint continues, adding that

    “the roller coaster was a defective product.”

    Causey has charged Universal with negligence, asserting that the theme park had a responsibility

    “to exercise ordinary care and skill to avoid foreseeable harm to Plaintiff and other similarly situated persons.”

    The lawsuit claims that the park created an

    “unreasonable risk of harm”

    by not addressing issues with the ride, despite park employees being aware that it was

    “defective,”

    which led to Causey sustaining injuries as a result. Those injuries include

    “bodily injury, resulting in pain and suffering, disability, disfigurement, scarring, mental anguish, loss of capacity for the enjoyment of life, expense of hospitalization, medical and nursing care and treatment, loss of earnings, loss of the ability to earn money, damage to property, inconvenience, and aggravation of a previously existing condition.”

    Causey’s injuries stem from the park’s prioritization of profits over safety, the lawsuit argues.

    “[T]he defendants’ failure to fix the roller coaster, shut it down, or provide adequate warning of the potential stoppage was done out of desire to obtain money for ticket sales for the park,”

    Causey’s attorneys stated in the complaint. Additionally, the lawsuit claims that Causey has lost his ability to earn income as a result.

  • Diddy Sued For Allegedly Raping Woman In 2001 In New Lawsuit Amid Sex Trafficking Trial

    Diddy Sued For Allegedly Raping Woman In 2001 In New Lawsuit Amid Sex Trafficking Trial

    Another woman has come forward with allegations against Sean “Diddy” Combs amid his highly publicized sex trafficking trial. She accused Diddy of rape in a 2001 incident and named Bad Boy Entertainment as a co-defendant in the lawsuit. The woman claimed the record producer succeeded in raping her after several harmless outings with him. She also alleged that Diddy drugged her and a friend before raping her. Her lawsuit comes amid Diddy’s current legal battle.

    Woman Files New Rape Lawsuit Against Diddy Amid Trial

    Diddy has been slammed with a new lawsuit accusing him of rape while his sex trafficking trial is underway. The alleged victim, identified only as Jane Doe, claimed the incident happened in 2001. Doe filed the lawsuit in the New York County Supreme Court on Wednesday, May 14. The new lawsuit accusing Diddy of rape also names Bad Boy Entertainment as a co-defendant, among others.

    In the lawsuit that People obtained, Doe recalled meeting Diddy in an elevator with three friends in May 2001. She claimed he asked for her number and invited her to a club where she and her friends met him. Diddy and Jane Doe met again two days later; this time, he allegedly tried to kiss her. Doe claimed she “physically moved” to avoid the kiss, but the rapper didn’t stop trying to get close to her. He reportedly invited her again in June 2001, this time to his studio.

    Doe agreed to meet with Diddy and later left for the club with him. All the while, she took a friend with her. Doe claimed that a commotion suddenly happened, causing bodyguards to hurry them out of the club and to a restaurant. She said she and her friend later left “without warning,” causing Combs to lash out at her on the phone.

    Jane Doe Claimed Diddy Drugged And Raped Her

    In Jane Doe’s rape lawsuit against Diddy, she and Diddy met up again around July 31, 2001. The Bad Boy Entertainment founder allegedly raped her during this outing. Doe claimed that she went with a friend to Diddy’s studio, after which they entered a tour bus with “opened condom wrappers, used condoms, and women’s underwear.” The group headed to the Bowery Ballroom, where the woman claimed she and her friend were served drinks. Jane Doe said the drinks made her and her friend feel “weird.”

    Afterward, they headed to the music mogul’s Manhattan apartment. Doe claimed Diddy “forcefully” led her to his bedroom, where he pushed her to the bed. He “put his hand around her throat and said, ‘I’m going to suck the life out of you.’” He then released his grip on her neck and held her arm down with one hand. Diddy used the other to unbuckle his belt and pants before “pulling out his erect bare-skinned penis which appeared to be the length and girth of a large tootsie roll,” calling it “an itty-bitty Diddy.”

    In her rape lawsuit, Jane Doe said she was “relieved” when she saw the size of Diddy’s penis. She claimed to have known that the sexual assault wouldn’t hurt as much due to the size. However, she recalled telling the music executive she didn’t want to have sex and screamed for him to stop. Nevertheless, Diddy ignored her cries and penetrated her “until he was close to climax.” Doe alleged that he pulled out and ejaculated on her.

    Jane Doe Alleges Mental And Emotional Distress

    The woman added that she went to the bathroom to clean herself and wipe off the rapper’s semen. She alleged in her lawsuit that she found Diddy naked on the bed after leaving the bathroom. She noted that she ran and asked a guard standing outside the bedroom for the exit. Doe claimed that Diddy’s staff drove her and her friend back to her apartment in the black SUV that took them to his home.

    Meanwhile, Doe claimed that Diddy tried to contact her two days after the incident, but she didn’t respond. She also refused an invitation to one of his white parties. She claimed that following the encounter, she has found it difficult being vulnerable and alone with men,” and that she “became withdrawn and was a shell of herself.” Doe also claimed she began therapy a year later for about six months to combat the fallout of the incident.

    In her lawsuit, she listed physical and emotional abuse, trauma, injury, and psychological damage “as a result of the defendants’ intentional, negligent, and criminal actions.” Doe is seeking a jury trial and damages against Diddy.

    Jane Doe’s rape lawsuit certianly complicates Diddy’s situation. He is currently on a jury trial for sex trafficking and racketeering offenses. It remains to be seen what would result from Jane Doe’s lawsuit.

  • Burger King Ordered to Face Lawsuit Claiming Whoppers Are Significantly Smaller Than Advertised, Reports Say

    Burger King Ordered to Face Lawsuit Claiming Whoppers Are Significantly Smaller Than Advertised, Reports Say

    Burger King must face a lawsuit alleging it misled customers into thinking that its Whopper sandwich and other products appear larger in advertisements than they truly are, as reported by the NY Post.

    In a ruling on Monday, US District Judge Roy Altman in Miami determined that it is plausible that “some” reasonable consumers in the proposed class action could be misled by Burger King’s advertisements. Nineteen customers from 13 states have accused the fast-food chain of significantly exaggerating the size of nearly all its menu items in both in-store and online promotions. They pointed to the way burgers are depicted as “[overflowing]” the buns, with the Whopper appearing 35% larger than the real product and containing more than twice the meat.

    Burger King admitted that its photographers “styled sandwiches more beautifully” than how they are presented by employees in restaurants. However, they argued that reasonable consumers understand that the purpose of menu board images is to showcase items in the most appealing way possible. Altman nonetheless found allegations that Burger King’s ads “go beyond mere exaggeration or puffery.”

    Altman claims that Burger King has allegedly exaggerated the size of its products “to a much greater degree,” particularly in advertisements after 2017, where the Whopper appears larger than in previous ads. “The plaintiffs’ claims are false,” Burger King said in a statement on Tuesday. “The flame-grilled beef patties portrayed in our advertising are the same patties used in the millions of burgers we serve to guests across the U.S.”

  • A Second Woman Accuses Shannon Sharpe Of Rape After Former NFL Star Temporarily Steps Down From ESPN Role

    A Second Woman Accuses Shannon Sharpe Of Rape After Former NFL Star Temporarily Steps Down From ESPN Role

    A second woman previously brought a rape accusation against Shannon Sharpe, Onsite has discovered. She filed the lawsuit two years ago, alleging that the former NFL star sexually abused her. The woman, an ex-girlfriend, also alleged a threat to life and claimed she dropped a restraining order to protect her and her child. The news of her rape accusation against Sharpe has come out amid the latter’s legal battle with another woman.

    Woman Makes Rape Accusation Against Shannon Sharpe

    Another woman has leveled a serious accusation of rape and sexual molestation against Shannon Sharpe. The woman, Michele Bundy Evans, had dated him for almost a decade and claimed the incident happened in 2010. She filed the lawsuit in 2023. Evans claimed the ESPN analyst raped her after they argued about his alleged infidelity. Page Six obtained court documents that detailed her rape accusation against Shannon Sharpe.

    Sharpe reportedly intimidated Evans, after which he forced her to her knees and went on to engage in “non-consensual oral penetration.” She claimed to have complied with the former NFL star’s alleged molestation out of fear. “Consumed by fear and the perplexing nature of his actions, I harbored a deep-seated apprehension that resistance would precipitate further detrimental outcomes,” the woman declared.

    In her rape accusation against Shannon Sharpe, Evans further claimed that his abuse didn’t stop with the oral assault. She alleged that he also “maneuvered” her “onto the bed and achieved non-consensual vaginal penetration, all the while proclaiming his intent to ‘make it so no other man would want [her].’”

    Michele Evans Accused Shannon Sharpe Of Defamation

    In addition to the rape accusation, Evans also slammed Shannon Sharpe with defamation, libel, and slander charges. She reported that the media personality  “threatened” to “ruin” her reputation if she ever disclosed details of the alleged abuse. Evans said her ex vowed to “use everyone I know to destroy you,’” in her $4 million lawsuit.

    Additionally, Evans alleged that the Nightcap host tended to dox people. She claimed that he divulged their ongoing legal feud on his platforms, which affected her reputation. She tied it to him, revealing the identity of the new accuser, Gabrielle Zuniga. Evans also got a restraining order against Sharpe after the 2010 incident but dropped it to protect herself and her child. She told the US Sun in a recent interview that an undisclosed individual came to her home and threatened her.

    She said, “After I filed the restraining order, I was sitting in my apartment with my daughter. I had a basement floor apartment with a door leading out to the sidewalk, so I was right there, vulnerable, and somebody came up to my door and said, ‘Shut up f**king bitch,’ and I ran and dropped it right then, because I had a child at home with me at the time, and having someone coming to my door with her there you know that? No, no, no, no.”

    Shannon Sharpe’s Representative Responds To Rape Accusation

    A representative for Shannon Sharpe has reacted to Evans’s rape accusation and called it “nonsense.” The attorney, Vincent Morris, said, “Michelle Evans’ claims are ridiculous and completely without merit. She could not find a lawyer to take her case and if you read her complaint, you’ll see it is filled with nonsense. Shannon has had no contact with her for many years and we understand that she is still on probation after serving three years in prison.”

    Meanwhile, Shannon Sharpe has stepped down from his role at ESPN amid the rape accusations Zuniga brought against him. In a screenshot Onsite obtained, Sharpe insisted on his innocence and announced that he would “step aside temporarily from [his] ESPN duties.” Sharpe claimed he would spend this time with his family and deal with the “false and disruptive allegations” against him. However, he promised to return to ESPN at the beginning of the NFL preseason and thanked his supporters.

    Shannon Sharpe is currently battling rape accusations from 19-year-old Gabrielle Zuniga, an OF model, who filed a $50 million lawsuit against him. However, Sharpe released explicit text messages she sent to prove they were involved in a “consensual, adult relationship that included role-playing, sexual language and fantasy scenarios explicitly requested by Zuniga.” He allegedly offered her $10 million to settle out of court before she filed the lawsuit, so she wouldn’t release a sex tape.

    Shannon Sharpe is in over his head at the moment due to the rape accusations. One can only hope that the truth is revealed when the legal proceedings begin.

  • Damon Dash at Risk of Losing Over $800K for Ignoring Court Orders

    Damon Dash at Risk of Losing Over $800K for Ignoring Court Orders

    Damon Dash finds himself in hot water as a federal judge in New York considers imposing sanctions against him. Dash and his company, Poppington LLC, have ignored court orders linked to a lengthy financial dispute with filmmaker Josh Webber.

    Dash’s refusal to acknowledge discovery requests concerning his assets is the reason he is now in the hole, according to AllHipHop.

    The plaintiffs are seeking access to information about Dash’s film rights and company records to enforce a judgment that has now surpassed $800,000. Court documents indicate that both Dash and Poppington “failed to respond to discovery requests.” This led Webber’s legal team to seek the sale and turnover of Dash’s business interests and intellectual property.

    What started as a debt of hundreds of thousands has gone up to a staggering $4 million. If Dash does not respond by April 28, 2025, he risks facing even harsher penalties for ignoring the court’s orders.

    The Root of the Conflict

    The roots of this conflict date back to a 2022 judgment that mandated Dash to compensate Webber and Muddy Water Pictures after he falsely asserted ownership of the film “Dear Frank,” starting a fierce legal battle. Tensions flared in 2024 when Dash publicly accused Webber on the “Earn Your Leisure” podcast. Webber argues that Dash’s statements sabotaged a $4 million film deal, leading to a defamation lawsuit.

    Dash’s refusal to cooperate with the court resulted in a $4 million default judgment against him in March 2025. Now he must face the consequences of not showing up to required mediation sessions and his failure to submit requested documents. In December 2024, Dash’s one-third stake in Roc-A-Fella Records was auctioned off to recover the debt. Despite this sale, Dash still owes over $823,000. The judge has issued a new order requiring Dash to submit a letter by April 28, detailing why he should not be sanctioned for disregarding previous court directives.

    As stated on the restaurant’s website, Stab’s dress code specified “business sweatpants, and revealing clothing. “Ms. McClanahan’s outfit did not fall under any of the specifically banned items listed in the policy,” the complaint stated while also citing photos of past customers who dined at Stab’s restaurant.

  • Shannon Sharpe Responds To Bombshell $50 Million Sexual Assault Lawsuit

    Shannon Sharpe Responds To Bombshell $50 Million Sexual Assault Lawsuit

    Shannon Sharpe is fighting a $50 million lawsuit filed by a woman whose identity was previously undisclosed. Jane Doe, now revealed to be Gabrielle Zuniga, claimed to be his girlfriend. She accused the former NFL star of sexual assault, battery, sexual battery, and secretly filming them having sex. However, Sharpe has countered her allegations in a statement released by his lawyer, in which he revealed Zuniga’s explicit texts.

    Shannon Sharpe Responds To $50 Million Lawsuit

    Shannon Sharpe has denied a sexual assault lawsuit worth $50 million filed against him. The former football tight end claimed the defendant lied about having non-consensual sex. He released a statement through his lawyer, Lanny J. Davis, as soon as the news of the Lawsuit made headlines. The statement that Onsite obtained revealed the woman’s identity as Gabrielle Zuniga. It also unveiled explicit texts she sent to the former football player.

    One of the messages Zuniga allegedly sent on October 7, 2023, read, “I want you to put a dog collar around my neck and choke me with it while you’re f**king me.” She allegedly sent another text on January 1, 2025: “I know you miss this juicy a**… $25k for each cheek.” In other texts, she repeatedly asked Sharpe to impregnate her.

    Shannon Sharpe’s attorney also attacked Zuniga and her attorney, Tony Buzbee, over their $50 million Lawsuit. He wrote that the Lawsuit was a “blatant and cynical attempt to shake down Mr. Sharpe for millions of dollars. It is filled with lies, distortions, and misrepresentations—and it will not succeed.”

    Woman Files $50 Million Lawsuit Against Shannon Sharpe

    Gabrielle Zuniga filed a $50 million lawsuit in Nevada on Monday, April 21. She claimed she started dating Sharpe after meeting at a gym in Los Angeles in 2023. According to the Lawsuit her lawyer, Tony Buzbee, filed, Sharpe was controlling and verbally abusive. Zuniga said she attempted to end her relationship with the former professional athlete after his 2024 Instagram Live controversy. She alleged that Sharpe raped her twice, once in October 2024 and again in January 2025.

    Buzbee said the $50 million Lawsuit was a way of standing up to power. “It takes a great deal of courage to stand up against those with power, fame, and money. I look forward to pressing this case in court,” he said. However, Sharpe’s lawyer refuted the claims, saying that his client “stands firmly by the truth and is prepared to fight these false claims vigorously in court. He looks forward to vindication through due process and a judgment based on the facts and the law.”

    Shannon Sharpe Accuses Gabriella Zuniga Of Extortion

    Shannon Sharpe also accused Gabriella Zuniga of trying to extort him by filing a $50 million lawsuit based on lies. His lawyer, Davis, said Zuniga “presented Mr. Sharpe with a secretly recorded video of a consensual sexual encounter” to “extract a large financial settlement.” Davis added that the video was “heavily edited and taken entirely out of context,” adding that it was “crafted to portray a consensual act as non-consensual.”

    He also claimed that Zuniga refused to hand over the full, unedited version of the clip despite requests from Sharpe’s team. Sharpe’s attorney said the team released “Ms. Zuniga’s own explicit text messages to Mr. Sharpe” to prove his innocence. They also showed that the complainant initiated their sexual encounter. He noted that Sharpe and Zuniga continued having consensual sex until January 2, 2025, a day after she “asked for ‘$25,000 per cheek.”

    Davis continued, “These messages are just a sampling of a broader pattern of graphic, sexual communications initiated by Ms. Zuniga. The evidence paints a clear picture: this was a consensual, adult relationship that included role-playing, sexual language, and fantasy scenarios explicitly requested by Ms. Zuniga.” He added, “Mr. Sharpe categorically denies all allegations of coercion or misconduct — especially the gross lie of “rape” — and will not submit to what he sees as an egregious attempt of blackmail.”

    The $50 million Lawsuit has taken a new turn with Shannon Sharpe’s disclosure of Gabrielle Zuniga’s explicit texts. It remains to be seen where the case will lead to.

  • Backstreet Boys’ Nick Carter Hit With New Serious Sexual Assault Lawsuit. The Woman Claims He Gave Her STDs

    Backstreet Boys’ Nick Carter Hit With New Serious Sexual Assault Lawsuit. The Woman Claims He Gave Her STDs

    According to TMZ, Nick Carter from the Backstreet Boys is facing serious allegations from a woman named Laura Penly, who says he sexually assaulted her multiple times and gave her STDs—including HPV, which she claims later caused cervical cancer.

    According to court documents, Penly says she met Carter back in 2004 when she was 19. They had a brief fling, and she says she asked him to use protection—but he allegedly refused and promised he was clean. She says this was her first time having unprotected sex.

    Penly claims Carter assaulted her twice—once in early 2005 and again during a trip to L.A.—both times allegedly ignoring her saying “no” and refusing to wear a condom. She says he also warned her to stay quiet.

    Afterward, Penly says she tested positive for chlamydia, gonorrhea, and HPV. That HPV diagnosis, she says, turned into cervical cancer and forced her to have surgery. She’s now suing Carter for sexual assault and emotional trauma, saying these events have caused long-term damage to her mental health and relationships.

    Carter’s lawyers are calling the whole thing a lie. They say this is just another attempt to take him down, claiming Penly is working with others who’ve tried to smear his name before. His team also says Carter doesn’t even remember meeting her and points to her past financial and legal issues to discredit her story.

  • Jeezy’s Former Manager Files Countersuit Alleging Non-Payment

    Jeezy’s Former Manager Files Countersuit Alleging Non-Payment

    The Snowman is headed to court. In February, Jeezy sued his former manager Solomon Fornie accusing him and business associate Eddie Bridgeman of financial mismanagement and obstructing access to critical financial records, according to AllHipHop.com. 

    However, this week, Fornie filed a countersuit against the legendary rapper where he alleges that he bailed Jeezy out of a desperate financial situation, according to AllHipHop.com which reviewed court documents obtained by The Jasmine Brand. 

    “I put my finances, my credit, and my reputation on the line to rebuild Jenkins’ career from the ground up,” Fornie stated in the filing. “He went from foreclosure to Forbes, and now he wants to pretend I was never there.”

    The report states that Fornie alleges he paid off Jeezy’s homes, covered payroll for his businesses, and even borrowed $400,000 to keep operations running—money he says has never been repaid. He also alleged that he worked without a salary for years. 

    Meanwhile, Jeezy is alleging that Fornie and Bridgeman made unauthorized deals and used his money for personal gain.

    Jeezy and Fornie worked closely together for years. The two formed a company together in 2015 called Agency 99. They later added Bridgeman who was supposed to handle financial matters. However, in his lawsuit, Jeezy alleges that the financial planner is not a certified accountant. 

    According to AllHipHop, Fornie claims that he was instrumental in negotiating major deals for the rapper, including for his New York Times bestselling book, Adversity for Sale, as well as partnerships with Avion Tequila and Naud Cognac, a FOX Soul talk show, and a $15 million publishing agreement with HarbourView.

    Jeezy is seeking damages and full access to the financial records tied to Agency 99.

  • U.S. Court Summons Davido Over Alleged Intellectual Property Theft And Unpaid $45K Royalties Settlement

    U.S. Court Summons Davido Over Alleged Intellectual Property Theft And Unpaid $45K Royalties Settlement

    Afrobeats singer Davido has been summoned to appear in a New York court within 21 over intellectual property theft. He is accused of stealing a 2022 song to create a soundtrack for his own music. The singer reportedly failed to honor an agreement that required him to pay the affected artists a sum. The artists are asking for the original payment owed and an additional $150,000 in damages. Meanwhile, Davido has 21 days to answer the court’s summons.

    Davido Summoned To Court Over intellectual property theft

    A U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York in Manhattan has summoned Nigerian singer Davido. The Afrobeats hitmaker has 21 days to answer the court’s summons. According to legal documents Peoples Gazette obtained, David Adeleke, AKA Davido, is to appear in court for intellectual property theft. The Assurance singer has been summoned alongside Emmerson Amidu Bockarie, popularly known as Emmerson, Carlos Jenkins, Matthew Quinney, and Marques Miles II.

    Emmerson is featured in Strawberry on Ice, the song involved in the dispute. Wynn Records, the recording agency that published and distributed the song, has also been named in the lawsuit. Four Nigerian artists—Martins Chukwuka Emmanuel, Abel Great Umaru, Kelvin Ayodele Campbell, and David Ovhioghena Umaru—filed the lawsuit. They allege that Davido made his soundtrack for Strawberry on Ice from their song Work without permission.

    Davido Failed To Pay $45,000 To Group

    After realizing that he used their demo for personal gain, the group asked Davido to pay for intellectual property theft. They claimed they gave him the demo in good faith, hoping to collaborate with him. However, the singer gave Emmerson the song, and the latter sampled individual recorded instrumentals and vocal elements from Work. Court records obtained by the outlet showed that Davido agreed to pay $45,000 in settlement on March 14, 2025.

    He also agreed to give the group 40 percent royalties for the underlying composition of Strawberry on Ice. Additionally, he was to pay 20 percent royalties for the sound recording. However, Davido reneged on his promise to the plaintiffs and failed to make any payments by the agreed-upon deadline. Consequently, they filed a lawsuit against Davido and others for intellectual property theft in the U.S. on April 4.

    The complainants are asking the court to grant that Davido and his co-defendants committed intellectual property theft. They are now seeking $150,000 in damages. They also seek 40 percent of Strawberry on Ice’s compositional copyright and 20 percent of the song’s sound recording copyright. Additionally, the plaintiffs have requested a ban on Davido and his co-defendants to prevent them from future intellectual property theft.

    Davido Reacts to Intellectual Property Theft Lawsuit

    Davido, who is enjoying his marriage to Chioma, reacted to the news of the group’s intellectual property theft lawsuit shortly after it broke out. Rather than address the news directly, the singer focused on his upcoming album, 5. He reshared a post by Bennydajeweller, who is making the FIA singer’s pendant for the album, on his Instagram Stories. The post featured an image of the pendant shaped like a 5. “Biggest pendant in the world about to be done for @davido for the 5 album,” the caption read, adding. “Let’s go.”

    The lawsuit against Davido, alleging intellectual property theft, has disappointed the singer’s fans. Hopefully, the Afrobeats star will make things right and pay the group what he owes them.
