Wholesale giant Costco has refuted claims that it sold baby oil to embattled music executive and rapper, Sean Combs, better known as Diddy.
This follows allegations that over 1,000 bottles of baby oil, seized during a raid on Diddy’s Beverly Hills mansion, were linked to alleged “freak off” orgies involving drugs and other illicit activities.
According to Thepaan, federal officers confiscated the supplies in March, which they allege were intended for these parties.
In a newly released documentary by TMZ Studios titled The Downfall of Diddy: The Indictment, the rapper’s attorney, Marc Agnifilo, claimed that Diddy had purchased the baby oil in bulk from Costco, attempting to explain the high volume of the product found during the raid.

However, Costco swiftly responded to this claim, denying any such transaction. “None of the company’s US locations carry baby oil,” Costco told TMZ, debunking the lawyer’s statement.
Diddy was recently arrested by Homeland Security on charges of sex trafficking, racketeering conspiracy, and interstate transportation for prostitution. The rapper has entered a not-guilty plea as of Tuesday, September 17, but has had his bail request denied twice, with his legal troubles mounting in this high-profile case.
