Al B. Sure is “absolutely” willing to take the stand in Diddy’s federal sex trafficking trial with his own allegations against the disgraced music mogul.
While promoting his memoir Do You Believe Me Now? during a recent appearance on FOX 5 New York, Al opened up about moments that have haunted him for years, including linking Diddy to his own health scare and the passing of the mother of both of their children, Kim Porter.
During the interview, Al also revealed that he was recently subpoenaed to testify in Diddy’s federal trial, which stems from allegations of sexual misconduct and trafficking. He confirmed that his legal team is already preparing, and when asked directly if he plans to take the stand, his answer was simple: “Absolutely.” He also made strong claims that efforts were made to silence him, including what he described as an “expensive PR campaign” and even a “bounty” placed on his head.
While speaking on Porter, who passed away in 2018 from complications related to pneumonia, he revealed that she once warned him to “watch [his] back.” At the time, he said he didn’t fully understand what she meant — but looking back now, those words hit differently.
Al shared that Porter’s death never sat right with him, and has publicly questioned the official story behind what really happened. He’s alluded to the idea that Diddy may have had a hand in her demise as well. “She was in the best of health,” he recalled. “We had just seen each other before she passed. We were celebrating our son’s Netflix Christmas special, and she was doing just fine.”
The “Nite and Day” singer also alleged that his own health crisis in 2022 — when he slipped into a coma from multi-organ failure — may not have been accidental. He believes Diddy played a role, and when asked if he holds him responsible, he responded, “Absolutely.”
Despite the heavy claims, Kim Porter’s children with Diddy released a public statement last year addressing speculation around their mother’s passing. “There was no foul play,” they asserted, adding that her cause of death had been clearly established and asked the public to respect their grieving process. “Grief is a lifelong journey,” the statement continued. “We ask for peace as we continue to cope with her loss every day.”
Diddy’s trial started last week with jury selection and is expected to start with opening statements today (May 12).
