Crime Stories with Nancy Grace. Why won't he go away? Now we learn Sean Diddy Combs pondering suing Netflix over their Reckoning series. Reckoning is the name of it. And we learn his prison release date has been moved up. Insult to injury. That's right. Sean Diddy Combs' argument with Netflix and 50 Cent over the documentary titled Sean Combs' The Reckoning seemingly is set to wind up in court. This is what we've learned. Combs and his, quote, team are pondering their legal options over the Netflix docuseries and, quote, stolen footage, quote. Okay, doesn't he have bigger problems? Sitting behind bars at a low-security Fort Dix in Jersey, Combs escaped. The most serious charges filed against him, including RICO and sex trafficking, he was found guilty on two lesser counts of transportation to engage in prostitution.

Why is Sean Combs considering suing Netflix over 'The Reckoning' series?

Nancy Grace 1:18
He's still facing charges. Literally dozens and dozens of civil lawsuits across the country and a brand new sex battery case opened last month by the L.A. County sheriffs. This, as we learned with time served, considered. The Federal Bureau of Prisons has moved his release date from June 4, 2028 to May 8, 2028. Wow. Wow. Let's jog our memory as to what happened at trial. Straight out to Lauren Conlon standing by at the courthouse. Lauren, what happened today?

Today in court we heard from the government cell phone expert, the forensic expert who did the extractions on Cassie Ventura's cell phone. He talked about extracting a significant amount of deleted data and why certain things would appear on the screen in evidence as we're seeing it. So for example, a deleted text thread might not have certain users names, so we've seen blanks. We've seen duplicate names and he explained all of this away. after that we heard testimony from jane doe who is victim three now jane doe described meeting sean combs early 2020 and she met him through a friend while they were on a girls trip and she testified that this friend was was once in a relationship with with diddy so she kind of kept her distance
Unknown 2:50
They exchanged numbers and from there they began a relationship after her friend moved on. And she actually talked about the fact that she was in a relationship with Sean Combs from 2020 all the way up until his arrest. Now, Jane Doe testified that the relationship truly started off as a fairy tale. He took her away to Turks and Caicos and then the Bahamas. But he also offered her $10,000 after this trip. He said, you know, I know that you haven't been able to work while you're on this trip, so here's some money. She talked about being a content creator, so that was her main form of income. She's also a single mother, and from there the government kind kind of started to ask, well, which cities did he take you to?
Unknown 3:33
Did he pay you money often? To which she testified, you know, he paid me money frequently. He ended up paying her rent at some point. And eventually, about three or four months into their relationship, that's when he brought up being with another man and he said this was a fantasy and she said okay. She didn't think that he was actually serious.

What charges is Sean Combs currently facing and what is his prison release date?

Unknown 3:54
Well, it turns out he was serious. She went to the bathroom and this was after they had already been engaging in sexual activity for 12 to 15 hours prior. He goes and he calls someone he knows named Dawn and arranges Dawn for that very night. And then she describes going to a hotel room that night in Miami, corroborated the oil, the assistant setting it up, and then said she engaged in this act with Dawn while Diddy watched. Again, what we've heard before. And then after that, she said it was pretty much a door that was opened that she couldn't close. She testified telling him in writing numerous times that she didn't wanna be with other men. She wanted to be with him, but because he was paying her rent, she felt obligated.
Unknown 4:40
She said her only form of income because she always had to be constantly ready for Diddy was Diddy's money that he was sending to her and the child support she was getting.
