Amidst his ongoing legal troubles, disgraced rapper Sean “Diddy” Combs has rejected the accusations made against him in ‘Diddy: The Making of a Bad Boy’, the upcoming Peacock documentary.
In a statement to Newsweek on Friday, Diddy’s attorneys said, “these documentaries include unchecked claims and provide platforms for baseless conspiracy theories without accountability or evidence.”
Speaking about the claims made in the Peacock documentary, they said it is necessary to investigate the reliability and motivations of the people interviewed. “Many claim to have knowledge but lack any connection to the truth, while their wild, unfounded theories are cut and sensationalized to appear factual.”

Diddy, as per his attorneys, categorically refutes these false allegations, which are damaging, defamatory, and not backed up by reliable evidence. “It is deeply concerning how such narratives can influence public perception and prejudice the legal process.”
They went on to say that Diddy deserves to stand trial before an unbiased jury, free from the taint of these unfounded allegations. “The facts will be addressed in court, where truth—not fiction—will prevail.”
