Netflix Doc Accuses Diddy of Slapping Mother After 1991 Stampede
A new Netflix documentary called 'Sean Combs: The Reckoning' has a story from a man named Kirk Burrowes.
He says that Sean 'Diddy' Combs once slapped and insulted his own mother, Janice Combs, after a bad event in 1991.
This event was a stampede at a basketball game in Harlem that Combs helped organize, which sadly killed nine people.
The documentary shows old videos and talks to people who knew Combs.
Combs doesn't like the documentary and says it's not true and that they used things they shouldn't have.
The documentary is about Combs' life and the problems he's had over the years.
