Costco Debunks Diddy's Lawyer's Claim About The 'Bulk' Buying Of Baby Oil From Them

Costco has been forced to set the record straight regarding claims that embattled hip-hop mogul Sean "Diddy" Combs purchased a massive amount of baby oil from their stores.

The rapper was recently arrested and slammed with sex trafficking, racketeering, and transportation to engage in prostitution charges.

Diddy is reportedly not getting preferential treatment behind bars and has a tight schedule while he awaits his trial.

The popular retail chain has distanced itself from claims that the rapper purchased a bulk supply of baby oil and lubricants from them.

According to TMZ, a spokesperson noted that none of the company's U.S. stores have the product in question.

A search on the members-only warehouse retailer's site shows that it offers nothing like baby oil. However, it does sell hair and cleansing gel for babies, which isn't close to baby oil.

Diddy's lawyer, Marc Agnifilo, made the Cosco remark during an appearance on TMZ's new documentary, "The Downfall of Diddy: The Indictment."

Agnifilo's claims came after Homeland Security agents released a 14-page indictment against the "Bad Boy For Life" rapper. In it, they disclosed that they confiscated 1,000 bottles of baby oil and lubricants from his L.A. and Miami homes back in March.

Agnifilo noted that Diddy had such a large stash of baby oil bottles and lube because he preferred to buy his products in bulk.

"I don't know where the number 1,000 came from," he explained to TMZ in a preview of their documentary. "I can't imagine it's thousands."

Upon being told that the number came from the indictment against his client, he retorted that he wasn't "really sure what the baby oil has to do with anything."

Agnifilo noted, "I don't know what you need 1,000... One bottle of baby oil goes a long way. I don't know what you'd even need 1,000 for."

"He has a big house; he buys in bulk," the lawyer continued. "I think they have Costcos in every place where he has a home."

He joked, "Have you sat in the parking lot of a Costco and seen what people walk out of there with?"

Agnifilo also seemed to disagree with the indictment's claim regarding the exact number of baby oil bottles found in the rapper's home, saying, "Let's just say it's a lot."

Diddy is currently being held at the Brooklyn Metropolitan Detention Center following his September 16 arrest at the Hyatt Hotel in New York City by Homeland Security agents.

According to TMZ, his attorney shared that he will take the witness stand to testify in his criminal sex trial.

Agnifilo noted that although the move is risky, Diddy is in the best position to defend himself in court.

He shared that Diddy's story involves love, hurt, and heartbreak, so "there's no one better to defend Diddy than Diddy himself."

Diddy testifying in court will open him up to the possibility of being scrutinized and cross-examined by prosecutors, especially in the face of a viral hotel surveillance footage that saw him physically assault his ex-girlfriend Cassandra "Cassie" Ventura.

He may also be asked about his alleged orgies called "freak-offs," as well as other sexual assault allegations that have been leveled against him recently.

Because of his celebrity status, speculation has been rife about how Diddy is being treated during his jail stay.

However, a source told People Magazine that he doesn't get preferential treatment behind bars and has seemingly had to deal with a tight schedule.

"He is being treated like any other detainee awaiting trial," the source told the news outlet. "As with all public figures in his position, he was placed on suicide watch upon admittance to the facility as a precaution."

The insider added that Diddy is "very concerned about his kids and their well-being."

"He has three minor children, two of whom now have no living parent available with him incarcerated," the source shared. "Four of his seven children have neither parent available with him incarcerated. Mr. Combs has been able to speak briefly to family members and his children via phone."

Diddy's longtime rival, 50 Cent,  recently gave a statement regarding the release of a Netflix docuseries, which will spotlight abuse allegations made against Diddy.

"This is a story with significant human impact," 50 Cent told Variety. "It is a complex narrative spanning decades, not just the headlines or clips seen so far."

He continued, "We remain steadfast in our commitment to give a voice to the voiceless and to present authentic and nuanced perspectives. While the allegations are disturbing, we urge all to remember that Sean Combs' story is not the full story of hip-hop and its culture."

50 Cent concluded his statement: "We aim to ensure that individual actions do not overshadow the culture's broader contributions."
