American wholesale giant Costco has refuted claims that it supplied baby oil to disgraced rapper and music mogul Sean Combs, popularly known as Diddy.
Federal agents reportedly raided Diddy’s Beverly Hills mansion in March, seizing drugs and over 1,000 bottles of baby oil allegedly meant for use in orgies dubbed “freak offs.”
The startling revelation is explored in the newly released TMZ Studios documentary, The Downfall of Diddy: The Indictment, where Diddy’s lawyer, Marc Agnifilo, argued that the staggering amount of baby oil found was due to his client’s habit of purchasing in bulk from Costco.
In response, the retail chain firmly denied the claim, stating, “None of the company’s US locations carry baby oil,” in a statement provided to TMZ.
Diddy, recently apprehended by Homeland Security, is facing serious charges, including sex trafficking, racketeering conspiracy, and interstate transportation for prostitution.
He has pleaded not guilty to all allegations, but his bail request has been denied twice by the court.
