Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ lawyer has provided an explanation for why the rapper had so many bottles of baby oil in his house.
Marc Agnifilo responded to claims by federal agents that they had confiscated “1,000 bottles” of baby oil and lubricant from Combs’ homes in Miami and Los Angeles, after a raid linked to a probe into his alleged sex trafficking empire. Agnifilio claimed that Diddy simply likes to bulk buy like many Americans.
Speaking to The New York Post about the shocking haul he said: “I don’t think it was 1,000. I think it was a lot. I mean, there is a Costco right down the street. I think Americans buy in bulk, as we know. And you know these are consensual adults doing what consensual adults do, you know, we can’t get so puritanical in this country to think that somehow sex is a bad thing because if it was there would be no more people.
Agnifilio has been visiting Diddy, 54, at Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center. The rapper remains incarcerated there pending trial after his attempts at obtaining bail were denied. Agnifilio provided an update on Diddy’s mood adding: “He’s just laser-focused, he’s engaged, he’s helpful, he’s confident. We’re going through our defense as we do every day and his spirits are relatively good.”
The news comes after reports that a ‘paranoid’ Diddy is reportedly refusing to eat while being held at the MDC. He was arrested last week in New York and later charged with sex trafficking, racketeering conspiracy, transportation and engaging in prostitution. He is currently being housed at the Metropolitan Detention Center, with it recently being reported that he was moved to an area with ‘special protection’.
And now, a former inmate has claimed he has a ‘source’ with knowledge of how Diddy’s been doing on the inside. Larry Levine, who served a sentence at the MDC, claimed Diddy was reportedly refusing to eat because of his fear and paranoia that he now has a target on his back.
“Imagine if someone paid someone off on the inside to poison his food, give him a heart attack and he dies,” the former inmate claimed. “If somebody got to one of the correctional officers, and this could happen. They don’t make a lot of money and there’s people out there that he’s got stuff on that do have a lot of money.”
“He’s really, really paranoid. He’s really, really scared. Doesn’t know what to think, he doesn’t know who to trust or what to believe,” Levine said to Ashleigh Banfield from NewsNation. He added that new inmates sometimes refuse to eat the food they’re given.
He added: “They feed the people in the shoe last. The food is bland, it’s a lot of carbohydrates. It fills you up but you get sick eating it. There’s mould in a lot of that food. Maybe he got sick from the food, that’s another possibility.”
