Sean 'Diddy' Combs Files $100 Million Lawsuit Against NBC Over Kim Porter Murder Theories in Documentary

Sean "Diddy" Combs is suing NBC for defamation to the tune of at least $100 million after the network released a documentary on his legal woes that allegedly suggested he may have been involved with ex Kim Porter's death.

His attorneys filed the bombshell documents with a New York court on Wednesday, February 12.

The lawsuit claims that Diddy: The Making of a Bad Boy "maliciously accuses" him of "murdering the love of his life and mother to his children" despite there being no "evidence of foul play," per documents obtained by news outlets.

The documentary did specify that the Los Angeles Police Department determined there had been "no criminal involvement in Kim Porter's death."

Porter — who welcomed son Christian and twin daughters Jessie and D'Lila with the hip hop artist — passed away in November 2018. It was later confirmed her cause of death was lobar pneumonia.

YouTube conspiracy theory videos claiming it couldn't be a "coincidence" that Porter and others related to Combs have died were also mentioned in the documentary.

The lawsuit further alleges the tell-all assumed the disgraced music producer committed "numerous heinous crimes, including serial murder, rape of minors, and sex trafficking of minors, and attempts to crudely psychologize him" and "maliciously and baselessly jumps to the conclusion that Mr. Combs is a 'monster' and 'an embodiment of Lucifer' with 'a lot of similarities to Jeffrey Epstein.'"

Combs' lawyer Erica Wolff stated: "In making and broadcasting these falsehoods, among others, Defendants seek only to capitalize on the public’s appetite for scandal without any regard for the truth and at the expense of Mr. Combs’s right to a fair trial. Mr. Combs brings this lawsuit to hold Defendants accountable for the extraordinary damage their reckless statements have caused."

Combs is seeking at least $100 million in damages.

As OK! previously reported, Combs was arrested in September 2024 and was subsequently charged with s-- trafficking by force, racketeering conspiracy and interstate transportation for the purpose of prostitution. He is currently incarcerated at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn where he is awaiting his May 2025 trial.

Since his arrest, he's also been hit with dozens of civil lawsuits accusing him of rape and other forms of sexual assault.

His legal team has petitioned for Combs to be released to in-home detention on a $50 million bond, but judges denied him bail, claiming he is a potential danger to the public and a flight risk due to the severity of the charges.

TMZ and Page Six obtained excerpts of the lawsuit.
