For decades Sean Combs was hip-hop’s reigning mogul—the mastermind who redefined what it meant to have fame, fortune, and dominion over the music industry. But as Combs reached new heights in music, fashion, and business, allegations of misconduct and abuse began to surface, casting a dark shadow over his legacy.

Hosted by Jesse Weber, this series uncovers how Combs built an empire that shaped a generation while navigating a trail of scandals, lawsuits, and criminal allegations.

The Rise and Fall of Diddy explores the intersection of power, fame, and accountability in the life of a man who once called himself a “bad boy for life.” 

Will his empire survive, or is this truly the end of an era?

Special prosecutor Kari Morrissey recently filed a notice of appeal that asks the New Mexico Court of Appeals to reinstate involuntary manslaughter charges against actor Alec Baldwin. Baldwin was on the "Rust" movie set when the gun he was holding went off, injuring the film’s director and killing the cinematographer. When Baldwin went to trial in July, the judge overseeing the case determined police and prosecutorial misconduct meant the case needed to be thrown out. Law&Crime’s Jesse Weber discusses the latest with New Mexico attorney John Day.
