Sean “Diddy” Combs' mother, Janice, defends him against serious charges. She says he deserves a fair trial and highlights the impact of false accusations.

Sean “Diddy” Combs, the famous music producer, is in big trouble. He is facing serious charges like sex trafficking, racketeering, and sexual assault. 

These are very serious accusations that can change someone’s life. In the middle of all this, Diddy’s mother, Janice Smalls Combs, stepped forward to defend him.

Janice shared her thoughts in a statement through her lawyer. She said it makes her very sad to see her son judged by lies instead of the truth. “It is heartbreaking to see my son judged not for the truth, but for a narrative created out of lies,” she stated.

Janice compared what is happening to Diddy to a “public lynching.” She feels that he is being treated unfairly before he even gets to prove he is innocent in court. She emphasized that everyone, including her son, deserves a chance to tell their side of the story.

In her statement, Janice acknowledged that Diddy has made mistakes. She mentioned a past incident where cameras showed him hitting his ex-girlfriend, Cassie, in a hotel in 2016. 

She said, “I am not here to portray my son as perfect because he is not.” However, she believes that past mistakes shouldn’t decide a person’s character or whether they are guilty.

Janice also talked about why Diddy settled a lawsuit with Cassie in November 2023. Cassie, now 38, accused him of rape, sex trafficking, and physical abuse. Janice believes that sometimes the truth can get mixed up with lies. She said, “Sometimes, the truth and a lie become so closely intertwined that it becomes terrifying to admit one part of the story.”

Janice thinks Diddy’s legal team chose to settle the lawsuit instead of fighting it in court. She feels that this decision was misunderstood and used against him, making it look like he admitted guilt. “This is why I believe my son’s civil legal team opted to settle,” she explained.

She also addressed the many sexual assault accusations against Diddy. Janice stated that not being completely honest about one thing does not mean he is guilty of all these serious charges. She pointed out that many innocent people have been wrongly convicted because they did not fit what society thinks a “good person” should be.

Janice believes some people are making these accusations against Diddy for money. 

She said, “These individuals saw how quickly my son’s civil legal team settled his ex-girlfriend’s lawsuit, so they believe they can receive a quick payday by falsely accusing my son.” This makes her very upset because it can take attention away from real victims of sexual assault.

As a mother, Janice finds it very painful to watch Diddy being made fun of by the world. “Watching the world make jokes and laugh at my son’s life crumbling before our eyes is something I can never forget,” she said. She hopes people will give Diddy a chance to speak for himself and defend his name.

Janice concluded her statement by saying that the federal government is using lies against Diddy to prosecute him. She strongly believes that he is not the monster that people say he is. “My son is not the monster they have painted him to be, and he deserves the chance to tell his side,” she said.

Diddy, who is 54 years old, was arrested in Manhattan on September 16. He has pleaded not guilty to all charges, including racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking, and transportation to engage in prostitution. He has denied all the accusations against him.
