Sean Combs is embroiled in controversy surrounding the Netflix docuseries "Sean Combs: The Reckoning," which premiered on December 2 and allegedly contains stolen footage of him with his legal team before his September 2024 arrest on sex trafficking and racketeering charges.His mother, Janice Combs, publicly denounced the series as "full of lies" that damage their reputation, specifically denying claims of abuse or that her son assaulted her, while Wayne Barrow also disputed allegations regarding The Notorious B.I.G. Wallace's funeral costs.Netflix maintains the footage was legally obtained and denies corporate retaliation, even as Combs's representatives issued a cease-and-desist letter on December 1 and he remains incarcerated following an October conviction for transporting individuals for prostitution.
