A Deep Dive into the Life, Career, and Crimes of Sean Combs

All Of It with Alison Stewart | Jan 22

In 2025, rapper and producer Sean "Diddy" Combs was convicted on two counts of transportation for prostitution in a trial that captured the attention of the nation. But while Combs was acquitted of the more serious charges leveled against him, more people have come forward to share their experiences with the controversial figure. The new documentary series "Sean Combs: The Reckoning" provides an in-depth look at the life and career of Combs, going back to his roots in Harlem, his role in the East Coast/West Coast rap battles of the 1990s, and his alleged abuse of women throughout his life. Director Alexandria Stapleton discusses the documentary, which is available to stream now on Netflix.
