Former ‘Vibe’ Editor Recalls Sean Combs Death Threat in Docuseries Preview

Sean Combs threatened former Vibe Editor-in-Chief Danyel Smith, who claims in 'The Fall of Diddy' docuseries he said would see her dead in a car trunk.

During a harrowing scene in the forthcoming documentary series The Fall of Diddy, former Vibe editor-in-chief Danyel Smith recalls an intense interaction with Sean Combs during which he allegedly threatened to see her “dead in a trunk” if she didn’t show him the magazine’s December 1997/January 1998 issue. In May 2024, Rolling Stone published a six-month investigation into Combs, who is currently being housed at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn after being charged with racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking, and interstate transportation to engage in prostitution. “Through these interviews combined with a vast collection of archival footage, The Fall of Diddy paints a holistic picture of a mogul who is alleged to have wielded his extensive power and influence to obscure, for decades, a pattern of abuse and violence that left an unprecedented amount of pain and suffering in his wake.”
