Costco has issued a statement addressing its unexpected involvement in the legal controversy surrounding Sean 'Diddy' Combs. This response comes as Combs' legal troubles escalate following claims made by his attorney regarding the bulk purchase of baby oil from Costco.

Costco Rejects Claims on Diddy’s Alleged Bulk Purchase of Baby Oil for Legal Issues

Details of the Claims Made by Combs' Attorney

During recent press statements, Marc Agnifilo, an attorney representing Sean Combs, alleged that the rapper purchased large quantities of baby oil from Costco. These claims emerged following an investigation that revealed approximately 1,000 bottles of baby oil in connection with the ongoing legal scrutiny surrounding Combs. This evidence allegedly ties into accusations of Combs hosting extended and drug-related parties described as “freak-offs.” Agnifilo has consistently defended Combs' innocence, asserting that he frequently buys products in bulk and noting that Costco locations are accessible near Combs’ residences.

Costco's Response to the Allegations

In light of Agnifilo’s assertions, a spokesperson for Costco responded to his claims, stating that such a bulk purchase of baby oil would not be feasible as none of Costco's 614 stores across the United States stock the product. Although the spokesperson's exact words were not reported, sources indicate Costco strongly refuted Agnifilo’s claims. Additionally, an examination by TMZ revealed that Costco's competitor, Sam's Club, also did not carry any similar lubricating products that would fit the description involved in Combs’ case.

Implications for Sean Combs' Legal Situation

The controversy surrounding the baby oil purchase adds to the mounting challenges facing Combs, especially as previously surfaced videos show him making remarks about his potential arrest and joking about abusive behavior. Currently, Combs is held in the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn and, if convicted on all counts, could face a life sentence in prison. The latest revelations regarding the baby oil connection do little to strengthen his defense as he navigates these serious legal allegations.
