Documents Linking Combs with Tupac's Attacks Appear To Be Fake
According to the Associated Press, documents that claimed to be FBI reports which linked Sean "Diddy" Combs to the attack of Tupac Shakur in 1994 appear to be fake.
"We have no record of these documents in our system," said FBI agent Stephen Kodak. "They don't appear to be legitimate."
James Sabatino, who is currently serving an 11-year sentence in a Pennsylvania federal prison for identity theft and fraud, filed these documents in a Miami federal court last year, according to AP. The documents were part of a $19 million lawsuit against Combs, claiming that Combs never paid him for a recording and video session by the late rapper, Notorious B.I.G.
The documents alleged to be reports of interviews conducted by an FBI agent in 2002 that linked Sabatino and other associates of Combs to the shootings of Shakur in 1994 in New York City.
Combs's attorney, Howard L. Weitzman, said Combs and Sabatino never had a business relationship and stated in an email, "It should be clear that Mr. Sabatino has a vivid imagination, to say the least, and his credibility quotient is zero."
These documents were cited by several newspapers which have since apologized and issued corrections.
