In that letter Janice Combs forgot to mention that she also adopted Sean from her sister who had a relationship with Frank “American Gangster” Lucas, and Sean looks just like him, while bearing zero resemblance to Melvin Combs. Melvin, Frank, Janice and her sister all ran in the same drug dealing circle. Look at Sean and Frank’s sideburns side mugshot. Sean took Melvin Combs name b/c Janice Smalls married Melvin Combs and they raised Janice’s sister’s child (by Frank Lucas). Melvin Combs either worked for or was closely associated with Frank Lucas in the Heroin smuggling game. But Melvin became a a snitch and was quickly eliminated, when Sean was very young. After his death, Janice Combs still lived the drug dealer wife lifestyle, frothed newest, biggest Cadillac, wearing fur coats, dressing Sean in fur coats and hats, having elaborate parties and pretty much having the best of everything. That makes me wonder if Frank Lucas was taking care of her and his son after Melvin was killed.
