Diddy’s arrest provided 50 Cent with more material to roast the disgraced mogul on Tuesday (September 17). 50 Cent joked about details from the indictment, which revealed the feds seized enormous amounts of lube and baby oil from Diddy’s home.
“Here I am keeping good company with @thedrewbarrymoreshow and I don’t have 1,000 bottles of lube at the house,” 50 wrote on Instagram.
Diddy, whose real name is Sean Combs, was arrested in New York on Monday (September 16). He was charged with sex trafficking, racketeering conspiracy and transportation to engage in prostitution.
U.S. Attorney Damian Williams discussed Diddy’s indictment at a press conference on Tuesday. Williams said the feds seized 1,000 bottles of lube allegedly used for Diddy’s “Freak Off” parties. Prosecutors accused Diddy of forcing women to “engage in frequent, days-long sexual activity with male commercial sex workers” at these parties.
“Agents seized evidence of the crimes charged in this indictment,” Williams noted. “They seized firearms and ammunition, including three defaced AR-15s and a large capacity drum magazine. They also seized evidence of the ‘Freak Offs’ – electronic devices that contained images and videos of the ‘Freak Offs’ with multiple victims. And they seized cases and cases of the kinds of personal lubricant and baby oil that Combs’ staff allegedly used to stock hotel rooms for the ‘Freak Offs.’ More than 1,000 bottles altogether.”
According to the indictment, Diddy’s victims were subjected to “physical, emotional and verbal abuse” to make them participate in the “Freak Offs.” The Bad Boy Records founder’s lawyer Marc Agnifilo denied any wrongdoing.
“We are disappointed with the decision to pursue what we believe is an unjust prosecution of Mr. Combs by the U.S. Attorney’s Office,” the attorney said. “Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs is a music icon, self-made entrepreneur, loving family man, and proven philanthropist who has spent the last 30 years building an empire, adoring his children and working to uplift the Black community. He is an imperfect person, but he is not a criminal.”
Diddy faces a maximum sentence of life in prison if convicted of sex trafficking or racketeering conspiracy. The sex trafficking charge carries a mandatory minimum sentence of 15 years behind bars.
