Janice Combs Denounces Netflix Docuseries as False
Janice Combs, the mother of Sean Combs, is very upset about a documentary called 'Sean Combs: The Reckoning' that was released on Netflix.
She says the documentary has many false stories about her son and their family.
One of the things she disagrees with is the claim that her son hit her after a sad event at City College in 1991.
She says this is not true and that the documentary is trying to make her son look bad.
She wants Netflix to take back these false stories.
Sean Combs is currently in prison and is expected to be released in 2028.
His sons, Quincy, Justin, and Christian, have each established careers in the entertainment industry and publicly stood by their father, even as one faces serious legal challenges of his own.
Quincy is 34 and has a career in acting and music.
Justin is 31 and focuses on media.
Christian is 27 and is facing legal troubles related to allegations of sexual assault and harassment.
Janice Combs accuses Netflix's 'Sean Combs: The Reckoning' of presenting false claims about her son's upbringing and family life.
She denies allegations that her son slapped her after the tragic City College events on December 28, 1991.
Janice Combs requests a public retraction of the misleading statements in the documentary.
Sean Combs is currently serving a four-year sentence and is expected to be released in early June 2028.
Netflix refutes Combs' claims, stating that the documentary is not a hit piece and no one was paid to participate.
