Singer Al B. Sure!, real name Albert Joseph Brown, is suspected of being involved in the death of his ex, actress Kim Porter.

The singer wrote a series of Instagram posts officially calling for “an investigation into an entire group of individuals who worked in or around the home of Ms. Kimberly Porter.” He named several law enforcement agencies, including the FBI, Department of Justice, and CIA.

Porter, who was married to Brown and had a child with him, Quincy, has been a prominent figure in the American Civil War since a book entitled Kim’s Lost Words: A Journey to Justice from the Other Side… was released on Amazon on September 6, 2024. The book is said to be an autobiography compiled from Porter’s diary entries, and after Porter’s other ex, Sean “Diddy” Combs, was charged with various sex crimes, music producer Chris Todd felt it was “safer to go public” and admit that he had published the book.

In his post, Brown called for the “publicists who helped write the book” to be investigated. “It has come to my attention that these individuals were also instructed to steal her computer and mobile devices, which contained her ‘original book notes.'”

Porter’s friend Ebonie Elektra also created an Instagram video disparaging the book. “THERE IS NO BOOK! There never was,” she wrote in the caption.

In addition to questioning the authenticity of the book, Brown also claims that Porter’s death was not due to pneumonia, but was in fact murder. “The individuals involved in this matter may also be connected to the cover-up of the alleged murders of several prominent artists,” he wrote.

Brown further claimed that Porter was targeted to prevent her from speaking out against Diddy. In Brown’s opinion, Porter was “taken over (…) before she could finish her true thoughts before this FAKE, unauthorized EDIT.”

Brown referred to Diddy’s other ex, Cassie Ventura, who physically attacked Diddy on video, and said Porter was likely intentionally silenced. “It is obvious that her ability to expose the reality of her personal abuse, drugging, #sextrafficking and #humantrafficking she was privy to, much like the courageous actions of Ms. Cassie Ventura, posed a threat to those who profit from such heinous activities,” Brown wrote.

Diddy is currently in jail after being denied bail. He is accused of human trafficking, organized crime and transportation for the purpose of prostitution. His lawyer Marc Agnifilo said Diddy will “fight this with all his energy and all his strength and the full confidence of his lawyers.”
