As the disgraced music mogul sits in jail awaiting trial, his children have issued a statement about their “devastating” month. In a joint post, Quincy Brown, 33, Justin Combs, 30, Christian Combs, 26, Chance Combs, 18, and D’Lila and Jessie Combs, 17, condemned those who have judged their father “based on accusations, conspiracy theories, and false narratives,” emphasizing the fact that nothing will break their bond.
“The past month has devastated our family,” their caption reads. “Many have judged both him and us based on accusations, conspiracy theories, and false narratives that have spiraled into absurdity on social media. We stand united, supporting you every step of the way. We hold onto the truth, knowing it will prevail, and nothing will break the strength of our family.”
They continue, “WE MISS YOU & LOVE YOU DAD.”
This statement comes after DJ Envy argued that Combs–who was denied bail 3 times after being arrested on charges of racketeering and sex trafficking–should be released for the sake of his children.
The Breakfast Club host and his wife Gia Casey discussed the situation on their podcast, The Casey Crew. In an interesting turn of events, DJ Envy expressed his sympathy for the mogul, saying he should be let out on bond while adding that the public was rushing to label him the bad guy.
“Diddy has three kids without a mom,” Envy began. “Kim Porter passed away… I feel like he should’ve got a bond and been able to fight this outside.”
“In this society. It feels like you’re guilty until proven innocent,” the DJ continued. “But it should be the opposite, it should be innocent until proven guilty…If he did do the things that they say that he did, he should go to jail for a long time. Absolutely… He should f***ing go to jail.”
Envy went on to say that the one thousand bottles of baby oil that were seized from Combs’ property means nothing beside the Bad Boy founder being “freaky,” which he emphasizes isn’t illegal.
“He is a freaky n****, like freaky freaky freaky,” Envy said. “The fact that he has a thousand bottles of baby oil and lube just means he just like to get s**t popping and there’s nothing wrong, there’s nothing illegal about that.”
