Janice Combs, the mother of hip-hop mogul Sean Diddy Combs, has finally addressed the legal issues surrounding her son. In a moving statement, she conveyed her deep pain about public allegations against Diddy, who is currently facing serious charges including sex trafficking and racketeering, as per TMZ.

Janice spoke with Local 10 News on Sunday through her attorney, Natlie G. Figgers, about the disturbing situation and shared her thoughts on the claims against her son.

Janice Combs made it clear that, despite the serious accusations, she fully supports Diddy. In her statement, she conveyed her pain, stating, "To bear witness to what seems like a public lynching of my son before he has had the opportunity to prove his innocence is a pain too unbearable to put into words." She stated that Diddy has been judged not on facts but on a narrative created out of lies.

While acknowledging the complexities of the case, Janice urged the public to hold off judgment until Diddy had his day in court. She believes that the media has helped to create a poor picture of her son without considering the entire story.

She said that sometimes the truth and a lie become so closely intertwined that it becomes terrifying to admit one part of the story, especially when that truth is outside the norm or is too complicated to be believed.

One of the main concerns Janice made in her statement was the shocking hotel camera evidence that reportedly showed Diddy abusing his ex-girlfriend, Cassie. The footage has been essential to the claims against him.

While Janice acknowledged that her son may not have been completely truthful about the matter, she noted that this does not automatically make him guilty of the more serious claims.

Janice also mentioned Diddy's settlement with Cassie, which some believe may have triggered a series of legal issues for the rap icon. She claimed, "I think his settlement with Cassie set off a domino effect leading to all this drama," hinting that the timing of the charges could be related to Diddy and Cassie's court settlement.

However, she insisted that the claims against her son are false and that Diddy is not the guy the public and media portray him to be.
