Last week singer / songwriter Al B. Sure sent a cease and desist notice to Amazon and the publisher of the alleged Kim Porter diary [click here if you missed that].
Now Amazon has halted book sales...
From The Daily Mail
Amazon confirmed Tuesday the removal of a recently-published memoir from its site that purports to tell the story of an abusive relationship between the late actor and model Kim Porter and her longtime partner, hip-hop mogul Sean 'Diddy' Combs.
Porter and Combs' children denounced the 59-page book - titled Kim´s Lost Words: A journey for justice, from the other side... - as a complete fabrication after it became a bestseller on Amazon in September.
'We were made aware of a dispute regarding this title and have notified the publisher,' an Amazon spokesperson said in a statement. 'The book is not currently available for sale in our store.'
The independent publisher is Todd Christopher Guzze, who goes by the name Chris Todd and defines his occupation as an 'investigative producer, author and journalist.'
Todd told The Associated Press in a phone interview in September that sources 'very close to Kim and Sean Combs' provided him with a 'flash drive, documents and tapes' from Porter that he eventually pieced together to create the memoir.
Todd, who used the pseudonym Jamal T. Millwood when publishing the title, did not comment on the removal Tuesday when contacted by the AP.
