"I watched him fire the gun. I've said it all this time": Natania Eboné Griffin

In 1999, three people were left injured in a shooting at a club in New York. Sean "Diddy" Combs, who was there along with then-girlfriend Jennifer Lopez, and rapper Jamal Barrow, popularly known as Shyne, Combs' then protégé, were arrested for allegedly shooting the victims. However, Combs was acquitted of all the charges against him, while Shyne was charged with a ten-year sentence.

On Wednesday, February 28, 2024, Natania Eboné Griffin, one of the three victims of the shooting, released a video on social media dropping the bombshell claim that it was Diddy who had shot her in the face and not Shyne. She maintained that she had told everyone for 24 years, including the surgeon who operated on her face, that it was Sean Combs who had shot her with a 9-millimeter hollow point bullet.

"I watched him fire the gun. I've said it all this time."

She claimed that the surgeon even testified in court that while the doctors were putting her under, she was screaming that Puffy shot her in the face. She further alleged that Diddy successfully paid off everyone involved in the case, including the club owners and the bouncer, to say otherwise.

Not only did Diddy allegedly shoot her face, but the woman also alleged that he set off a "course of harassment" against her for the past 24 years. She also had a reason as to why he allegedly did so.

"Prior to Cassey, I was the only person to be victimized by him and then to successfully sue him and get paid, and he had to pay me out of his pocket. He has never gotten over that."

She declared,

"As god as my witness, I will not stop until you suffer every single iota of punishment, until I have every second of recompense that you took from me, for every tear that I had to cry or my children had to cry, I am going to get a million back from you."

Natania began her video by talking about the latest SA lawsuit against Diddy, filed by former male employee Lil Rod, on Monday, February 26, 2024. According to All Hip Hop, Rod alleged in the lawsuit that Sean Combs had bragged about shooting up the New York nightclub in 1999 and making Shyne take the fall.
