The Tupac Connection Netflix Cut From The Diddy Doc REVEALED!-WEEK IN REVIEW
The Netflix documentary Sean Combs: The Reckoning shattered records with nearly twenty-two million viewers in its first week. Before it even aired, Diddy's legal team fired off a cease-and-desist letter calling it a shameful hit piece and threatening a billion-dollar lawsuit. No lawsuit was ever filed. No injunction. No emergency motion. Just noise. So what actually happened, and what comes next? Defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis joins us to break down the legal reality behind Diddy's threats. We examine what it would take to win a copyright claim over footage filmed by his own videographer, especially when reports suggest no formal contracts existed. Eric explains why stolen footage is far harder to prove than headlines suggest and walks us through defamation law for public figures, including the actual malice standard that makes celebrity lawsuits extraordinarily difficult to win. Then there is the question of the footage itself. According to executive producer 50 Cent, Netflix only scratched the surface. In a recent interview, he confirmed he is sitting on one hundred forty hours of unreleased material and hinted it could end up on YouTube. Among the details that never made the final cut: Diddy allegedly fathered a child with Sarah Chapman, a woman who previously dated Tupac Shakur. The documentary also avoided the death of Kim Porter, the alleged firebombing of Kid Cudi's car after he dated Cassie, and civil lawsuits naming Diddy's sons in separate assault allegations. We also dig into how Netflix obtained the behind-the-scenes footage in the first place. According to Diddy's own documentarian, it came from a fill-in freelancer brought in for just three days. Diddy's team called it stolen. Netflix says it was legally obtained. With 50 Cent threatening to release more and Diddy's legal options looking weaker by the day, this story is far from over. #DiddyCase #NetflixDoc #EricFaddis #LegalAnalysis #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski #SeanCombs #DefamationLaw #TrueCrimePodcast #50Cent #Diddy #SeanCombsTheReckoning #Netflix #DiddyDocumentary #Tupac #SarahChapman #BadBoy #CrimeWeekly #TrueCrime #HipHopNews Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Diddy Fallout, Tupac/Biggie Claims & the Anna Kepner Case — Attorney Faddis Breaks It All Down
Three cases. Three firestorms. One attorney who cuts through the noise. In this extended episode, defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis joins me to break down the legal chaos surrounding the Netflix documentary Sean Combs: The Reckoning, the explosive allegations linking Diddy to the murders of Tupac and Biggie, and the mysterious cruise-ship death of 18-year-old Anna Kepner, where a 16-year-old stepbrother is the named suspect — yet no charges have been filed. Part One: Diddy vs. Netflix We look at the cease-and-desist letter, the “stolen footage” accusations, and why Diddy hasn’t filed the billion-dollar lawsuit he threatened. Eric explains the hurdles of copyright ownership, the brutal reality of defamation law for public figures, and how anti-SLAPP statutes could turn the whole thing back on Diddy. We also break down why 50 Cent’s decades-long feud with Diddy isn’t enough to create legal exposure on its own. Part Two: Tupac & Biggie Allegations Keefe D named Diddy 47 times across interviews. Kirk Burrowes says Diddy “ushered Biggie to his death.” Former LAPD detective Greg Kading lays out timelines and motive theories. But accusations do not equal evidence. Eric explains why none of this has triggered criminal charges, what prosecutors would actually need, and whether future cooperation deals could change the landscape. Part Three: The Anna Kepner Case A death at sea. A teenage suspect identified in legal filings, not by investigators. Conflicting family narratives, witnesses claiming aggression and chokeholds, and an FBI investigation happening entirely out of sight. Eric breaks down why the silence may be strategic, how federal cases involving minors unfold, and what the legal roadmap looks like behind closed doors. This episode pulls together the legal, psychological, and forensic threads of three highly complicated cases — and gives listeners a grounded, real-world understanding of what justice looks like when the spotlight is this bright. #DiddyCase #TupacAndBiggie #AnnaKepner #EricFaddis #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski #TrueCrimePodcast #LegalAnalysis #NetflixDocumentary #TrueCrimeDiscussion Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Could Diddy Ever Be Charged In Connection With The Murder Of Tupac & Biggie?! SHOCKING NEW Allegations Examined!
The Netflix documentary doesn’t stop at abuse allegations — it dives straight into the two most infamous unsolved murders in music history: Tupac Shakur and The Notorious B.I.G. With Keefe D now awaiting trial in Nevada, statements resurfacing from decades past, and former associates like Kirk Burrowes making explosive claims, many viewers are asking the same question: Is there any world where Diddy faces criminal charges? Defense attorney Eric Faddis breaks down exactly why these allegations haven’t resulted in charges and what prosecutors actually need before they put anyone — especially a high-profile figure — in front of a grand jury. We examine Keefe D’s interviews, his credibility problems, and the challenge of using a witness whose own confessions may undermine his reliability. Eric walks through the Burrowes journals, the allegations involving Eric “Von Zip” Martin, the cross-state car movements, and the claims of hidden compartments. Is any of that enough to reopen a cold case? Or is it circumstantial at best? We also explore whether acquittals in unrelated federal cases influence prosecutorial willingness to pursue old allegations, whether civil wrongful-death suits are still possible, and whether a future cooperation deal from Keefe D could implicate anyone else — including Diddy. We end on a crucial point: In criminal law, accusations alone mean nothing. Evidence is everything. #Diddy #Tupac #Biggie #EricFaddis #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimePodcast #TonyBrueski #HipHopHistory #LegalBreakdown #ColdCaseAnalysis Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

50 Cent Has 140 HOURS of Diddy Footage — And Netflix Only Showed You a Fraction
The Netflix documentary Sean Combs: The Reckoning broke records with nearly 22 million viewers in its first week. But according to executive producer 50 Cent, what aired was just the beginning. In a revealing interview on The Sherri Show, 50 confirmed he's sitting on 140 hours of unreleased footage — and he's already hinting it might end up on YouTube. So what didn't make the cut? For starters, the explosive detail that Diddy fathered a child with Sarah Chapman, a woman who previously dated Tupac Shakur in 1995. That footage was filmed, discussed, and then left on the editing room floor. 50 Cent says it's part of a pattern — Diddy allegedly pursuing women connected to his rivals. Then there's the question everyone's asking: how did Netflix get that behind-the-scenes footage of Diddy in the days before his arrest? According to Diddy's own documentarian, the material was handed over by a fill-in freelancer — someone brought in for just three days while the main cameraman was out of state. Diddy's team called it stolen. Netflix says it was legally obtained. The filmmaker who leaked it hasn't been publicly identified. The documentary also sidestepped several major controversies: the death of Kim Porter, whose children have repeatedly asked the public to stop spreading conspiracy theories; the alleged firebombing of Kid Cudi's car after he briefly dated Cassie; and civil lawsuits naming Diddy's sons Justin and King in separate sexual assault allegations. None of it made the final cut. Now, with 50 Cent threatening to release more footage directly online, the story is far from over. This video breaks down the loose ends, the unreleased material, and what could be coming next in the most public takedown in hip-hop history. #Diddy #50Cent #SeanCombsTheReckoning #Netflix #DiddyDocumentary #Tupac #SarahChapman #BadBoy #CrimeWeekly #TrueCrime Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Is Diddy Really Going To Sue Netflix For ONE BILLION DOLLARS!?! The TRUTH Exposed!
Before the Netflix documentary Sean Combs: The Reckoning even aired, Diddy’s legal team fired off a cease-and-desist letter. They called the documentary a “shameful hit piece,” claimed the footage was “stolen,” and floated the idea of a billion-dollar lawsuit. And yet… nothing. No lawsuit. No emergency injunction. No filings. So what is actually happening here? In this segment, defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis breaks down the legal truth behind Diddy’s threats. We examine what it would take for Diddy to win a copyright claim over footage filmed by his own videographer — especially when some reports say there were no formal contracts at all. Eric explains how ownership works, how intellectual property law overlaps with employment agreements, and why “stolen footage” is much harder to prove than people realize. We then dig into defamation. Diddy is a public figure — which means the “actual malice” standard applies. Eric walks us through how extraordinarily difficult it is for celebrities to win defamation cases, especially when a documentary includes on-camera statements from people like Kirk Burrowes rather than direct factual claims made by Netflix. We also discuss Diddy’s active lawsuit against NBCUniversal, how his own sentencing-day statements may have severely weakened his claims, and whether 50 Cent — a vocal adversary — exposes himself to additional liability as an executive producer. Finally, we break down how New York’s anti-SLAPP laws could turn the tables entirely, forcing Diddy to pay Netflix’s legal fees if a defamation claim is deemed retaliatory. This is where legal threats meet actual law — and those two worlds rarely look the same. #DiddyCase #NetflixDoc #EricFaddis #LegalAnalysis #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski #SeanCombs #DefamationLaw #TrueCrimePodcast #50Cent Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Did Diddy Order the Hit on Tupac — Then Profit From Biggie's Death? | The Reckoning Documentary Breakdown
The Netflix documentary "Sean Combs: The Reckoning" presents some of the most damning allegations ever made against the disgraced music mogul — and the most explosive involve two murders that changed hip-hop forever. In this breakdown, we examine the documentary's claims about Diddy's alleged role in the deaths of Tupac Shakur and The Notorious B.I.G., including never-before-heard audio from Keefe D's 2008 proffer session where he alleges Combs offered a million-dollar bounty on Tupac and Suge Knight. We walk through the testimony of Bad Boy co-founder Kirk Burrowes, who kept detailed journals during his years at the label and now claims Combs was "insanely jealous" of Biggie and Tupac's friendship. Burrowes alleges Combs cancelled Biggie's London trip and kept him in Los Angeles despite the danger — and that after Biggie was killed, Combs allegedly tried to charge the funeral costs back to the dead rapper's estate. We also cover the response from Biggie's estate manager Wayne Barrow, who denies the funeral allegation entirely. The documentary raises a disturbing question: did Combs lose a friend, or build an empire on tragedy? Sean Combs has denied all involvement in both murders and has never been charged. Keefe D's trial is scheduled for 2026. This is Crime Weekly's full breakdown of the allegations, the evidence, and what it all means. #Diddy #SeanCombs #TheReckoning #Tupac #NotoriousBIG #Biggie #CrimeWeekly #TrueCrime #Netflix #HipHop Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Diddy's Mom Responds to Netflix Documentary — And It's Getting Ugly
Diddy's mother is firing back at Netflix — and the accusations are personal. The documentary "Sean Combs: The Reckoning" doesn't just cover Diddy's trial and conviction. It makes a bigger argument: that the behavior that landed him in federal prison started in childhood. That it was learned. Normalized. That before there was Puff Daddy or Bad Boy Records, there was a kid in Mount Vernon — and whatever happened to that kid matters. Two witnesses make the case against Janice Combs. Tim Patterson, a childhood friend, says he watched Janice physically abuse Sean for years. He describes parties at the family home with pimps, drug dealers, and adults having sex in rooms kids could walk into. Kirk Burrowes, who co-founded Bad Boy Entertainment, says he witnessed Sean slap his mother during an argument after the 1991 City College stampede that killed nine people. Janice is calling it all lies. She says she raised Sean with love and hard work as a single mother. She says Patterson's claims are "salacious" and designed to promote the documentary. She says Burrowes has been trying to steal Bad Boy Records for thirty years and this is just his latest play. But here's what she doesn't address: There's footage of Janice herself joking about giving Sean "a lot of beatings" on national television. And Burrowes kept handwritten journals from his time inside Bad Boy. Today we break down the allegations, the evidence, the rebuttals, and the credibility problems on both sides — including the fact that this documentary was executive produced by 50 Cent, Diddy's longtime rival. Sean Combs was convicted on two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution. He was acquitted on racketeering and sex trafficking charges. Janice Combs denies all allegations. All parties are entitled to the presumption of innocence on unproven claims. #Diddy #SeanCombs #JaniceCombs #Netflix #TheReckoning #TrueCrime #CrimeWeekly #BadBoyRecords #50Cent #DiddyDocumentary Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

"He Ushered Biggie to His Death?" — What the New Diddy Documentary Exposed
"He ushered Biggie to his death." That's what Kirk Burrowes — the co-founder of Bad Boy Entertainment — says in the new Netflix documentary "Sean Combs: The Reckoning." And he's got journals to back it up. The 4-part docuseries, executive produced by 50 Cent, drops bombshell allegations about what really happened in the months leading up to Christopher Wallace's murder on March 9, 1997. According to Burrowes, the story Diddy has told for 30 years — that Biggie wanted to be in LA for a "peace tour" — is a lie. In this episode, we break down: → The journals Kirk Burrowes kept from "Day Zero" at Bad Boy → Allegations that Diddy cancelled Biggie's London trip to "party on enemy turf" → Claims that Biggie's estate was charged for his own funeral → The disturbing "March 9th ritual" Clayton Howard describes → What the jurors said about the Diddy trial → How Combs' team is responding to the documentary Combs has denied all allegations and his team has called this documentary a "shameful hit piece." He is currently serving 50 months in federal prison after being convicted on two Mann Act charges in July 2025. ⚖️ These are allegations from a documentary. Combs has never been charged in connection with Biggie's or Tupac's deaths and maintains his innocence on all claims. #Diddy #SeanCombs #TheReckoning #Biggie #NotoriousBIG #BadBoy #Netflix #Documentary #TrueCrime #CrimeWeekly #50Cent #HipHop #Tupac #March9 #KirkBurrowes Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
