Sean Combs, also known as Puff Daddy or P. Diddy, was involved in a highly publicized shooting incident on December 27, 1999. The incident occurred at Club New York in Manhattan, New York City. The shooting took place during a confrontation between individuals associated with Sean Combs and another group, which included rapper Jamal "Shyne" Barrow and his associates.


The altercation reportedly began after a dispute over a spilled drink escalated into a physical confrontation. Shots were fired inside the club, resulting in injuries to three individuals, including Natania Reuben, a clubgoer, and Julius Jones, a member of Combs' entourage. Combs and his then-girlfriend, actress-singer Jennifer Lopez, were present at the club during the incident but were unharmed.

Following the shooting, Sean Combs, his bodyguard, Anthony "Wolf" Jones, and rapper Shyne were arrested. Combs was charged with illegal possession of a firearm, as well as bribery charges for allegedly offering his driver, Wardel Fenderson, money to claim ownership of the weapon found at the scene. Shyne was charged with attempted murder, assault, and reckless endangerment.

During the trial, the prosecution argued that Combs had brandished a gun during the altercation and that Shyne had fired shots in the club. However, Combs maintained his innocence, claiming that he never possessed or fired a weapon during the incident. The case drew significant media attention and raised questions about celebrity involvement in criminal activity.

In March 2001, Sean Combs was acquitted of all charges related to the shooting. However, his bodyguard, Anthony Jones, was found guilty of attempted assault and weapons charges. Shyne was convicted of assault, reckless endangerment, and gun possession and was sentenced to 10 years in prison.

In this episode, we hear from Natania Reuben who says she is positive that it was Diddy who shot her and the extrodinary lengths she says she's willing to go to in order to prove her allegations.
