Investigation Discovery, the true-crime network behind this year’s bombshell Quiet on Set, announced on Wednesday they are in production on a docuseries exploring the rise and fall of Sean “Diddy” Combs.

The multipart doc, set for a 2025 release, will review “the rise and influence of Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs and the allegations of violent behavior and illegal activity that have trailed the music mogul,” per a release.

“As accounts of sexual assault, abusive behaviors, and other disturbing claims surface, the doc traces the story of this self-proclaimed Bad Boy, unraveling allegations of a pattern of depravity,” the release continues.

Released earlier this spring, Quiet on Set: The Dark Side of Kids TV, highlighted the voices of many former Nickelodeon stars describing toxic environment claims around shows created and run by producer Dan Schneider. The series far exceeded initial expectations and earned two Emmy nominations.

ID’s announcement comes just one day after Diddy was detained pending trial in New York; federal agents arrested him on Monday on charges of sex trafficking and racketeering.

The three-county indictment, unsealed on Tuesday, accused Combs of various crimes related to an alleged decades-long pattern of physical and sexual violence against women in his orbit. Federal prosecutors charged him with sex trafficking and racketeering for directing a vast criminal enterprise through which he assaulted and trafficked women with the help of his various businesses from at least 2008.

The arrest was a major update to Diddy’s deepening legal trouble. Last week, his former bandmate Dawn Richard filed a new sexual assault lawsuit which included claims of battery, false imprisonment, withholding millions of dollars in unpaid royalties and wages, as well as stealing her copyrighted works.

Richard’s complaint was at least the eighth brought against him since his former girlfriend Casandra Ventura filed a lawsuit detailing years of physical and sexual abuse last year. That action quickly settled but led to other accusers, including Liza Gardner, Joi Dickerson-Neal and Crystal McKinney, bringing similar complaints.

Producer Rodney “Lil Rod” Jones also filed a sexual assault lawsuit against Combs in February, accusing the music mogul of harassing and trafficking him. Diddy filed a motion to dismiss Lil Rod’s suit in August. He has denied the other allegations as well.

In March, federal law enforcement raided Diddy’s homes as part of their human trafficking investigation. In May, a 2016 video surfaced showing Combs beating Ventura, running out of a hotel room chasing her toward the elevator, grabbing her by the back of the neck, throwing her on the floor, kicking her, shoving her and dragging her by her sweatshirt. Later in the footage, he returned to kick her again, and then threw an object from a nearby table at her.

ID’s docuseries will feature the voices of many who have alleged acts of violence and brutality, as well as archival footage and in-depth reporting from Rolling Stone. The project is being produced for ID by Maxine Productions and IPC in association with Rolling Stone Films, and will release on ID and Max.
