Libel cases are incredibly hard to win, especially in the US. Jon has never gone ham on Richie, so dropping little things about his addictions is not going to result in Richie being able to win a libel case. As another poster says, it would also open a can of worms.
I don't have a problem with Jon saying anything he says. Nor do I have issue with Richie firing back. I do hope the documentary clears this up though. However, the closer we get and Jon continues with his narrative, I think this subject will get glossed over quickly. I don't expect to come away from the documentary any wiser on this subject.
I mean, it would be wild if Richie says something that validates what Jon has been saying, or Jon says something that shows Richie's version is accurate.
