Lawyers for Sean “Diddy” Combs have mocked the prosecution for presenting bottles of baby oil as evidence that he engaged in sex trafficking during their closing arguments at his New York trial.
The music mogul’s legal team claimed the prosecution “badly exaggerated” evidence of Combs’s swinger lifestyle combined with his recreational drug use in order to confect a racketeering conspiracy charge that could put him behind bars for life.
Marc Agnifilo, defending, derided the prosecutors who seized hundreds of bottles of Astroglide lubricant and baby oil from Combs’s property, telling the Manhattan court: “Way to go, fellas.”
“He [Combs] did not do the things he’s charged with. He didn’t do racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking,” he said as he began a presentation expected to last several hours.
