While Diddy remains behind bars at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn awaiting his day in court, many of his alleged victims and those who knew him best throughout the rise and fall of Combs’ Bad Boy empire are speaking out.
Investigation Discovery’s The Fall of Diddy docuseries premieres on Discovery+ at 9 p.m. on Monday night (Jan. 27) with parts three and four of the chilling series airing at the same time on Tuesday (Jan. 28). The doc will also be available on Max.
The four-part series features testimony from former VIBE editor-in-chief Danyel Smith, Rodney “Lil Rod” Jones (who has filed a lawsuit against Diddy), Kat Pasion, Danity Kane’s D. Woods, 1999 shooting victim Natania Reuben and Thalia Graves (who says Diddy raped her), as well as those who worked with the disgraced mogul like his personal chef, security, childhood friends and more.
A ton of ground is covered throughout the four-hour series, starting with Diddy’s relationship with his mother, the City College stampede, Bad Boy’s rise and glory years, the 1999 NYC nightclub shooting, his turbulent relationship with Cassie and repeated patterns of abuse with alleged victims speaking out.
“We did not realize the extent of the darkness,” says one of the interview subjects.
Combs was denied bail three times following his September 2024 arrest on counts of sex trafficking and racketeering. His trial is slated to start on May 5. Diddy pleaded not guilty to the charges and has continuously denied all of the allegations levied against him. He faces life in prison if convicted on all charges.
