A RECENT lawsuit filed against Sean “Diddy” Combs offers a theory that could explain why scores of baby oil bottles were found by cops when they raided his homes earlier this year.
The suit, which accuses disgraced rapper Combs of child sexual assault, claims he laced “lotions or similar body oils” with GHB – commonly known as the “date rape drug.”
The lawsuit – one of six fresh claims filed in New York on Monday – details “allegations of Combs dousing victims in lotions or similar body oils… laced with GHB, so that the drug would be absorbed through the victim’s skin and make it easier to assault him or her.”
Gamma hydroxybutyrate (GHB) is hard to detect when slipped into a drink and was originally developed as an anesthetic – producing feelings of drowsiness or relaxation.
It comes in liquid form, powder or crystal form and can be absorbed through the skin when mixed into lubricants.
On March 25 this year federal police raided Combs’ Los Angeles and Miami mansions, seizing over 1,000 bottles of baby oil and lubricant.
Pictures showed cops removing evidence boxes from his home – with an unsealed indictment revealing they had also found narcotics and three AR-15 rifles.
Combs was arrested on September 16 in Manhattan by Homeland Security on charges of racketeering and sex trafficking.
He was charged on three federal counts stemming from allegations that he forced his victims to take part in drug-fuelled sex parties he called “freak offs.”
Combs is facing a slew of further accusations, including rape and sexual assault from some 120 alleged victims in different criminal and civil lawsuits.
One filed by an unnamed John Doe on Monday accuses him of sexual assault when the alleged victim was only 16.
It describes the disgraced rapper as “a menace to society, women and children.”
‘Sex-obsessed’ Diddy gave me ‘drugged’ shots at parties – now I fear he’ll be killed by ‘enemies’ before facing justice
Combs has denied the allegations against him, and his lawyer, Marc Agnifilio, has hit out against claims about the amount of baby oil found in his home.
“I don’t think it was 1,000. I think it was a lot,” he told the New York Post.
“I mean there is a Costco right down the street. I think Americans buy in bulk, as we know.
A timeline of Sean Combs’ downfall
BY Forest McFarland, Senior News Reporter
BEFORE Sean “Diddy” Combs’ arrest on Monday night, it had been highly speculated that the rap star would find himself in custody after he was repeatedly hit with disturbing accusations – and had two of his mansions raided by the feds.
His mounting legal troubles finally came to a head on September 17, when he was charged with three federal counts, including sex trafficking, for allegedly forcing victims to take part in drug-fueled sex parties he called “Freak Offs.”
Hours before his arrest, The U.S. Sun exclusively revealed the feds investigating Combs were secretly liaising with Tupac Shakur murder prosecutors on gangland activities.
The development also came after Combs was named 77 times in documents submitted by prosecutors in the Tupac murder case.
Aside from the Tupac probe, Combs was already facing a slew of lawsuits, including one he settled with his ex, Cassie Ventura, after she accused him of rape and abuse.
Disturbing hotel surveillance video from 2016 showed Combs chasing Cassie down and then punching, kicking, and beating her in a hallway.
Two months earlier, in March 2024, two of Combs’ mansions were raided by federal investigators, who seized three AR-15s, drugs, and 1,000 bottles of lube which were part of his “Freak Off” supplies.
In addition to his federal criminal charges, Combs also faces a handful of lawsuits with allegations of sexual assault, harassment, and sex trafficking dating back to the early 1990s.
Music producer Rodney ‘Lil Rod’ Jones filed one suit in February 2024, claiming Combs forced him to hire sex workers and participate in sex acts while he worked on his latest album.
Combs has denied any wrongdoing and pleaded not guilty to the federal sex trafficking charges against him, but his battle is far from over.
He faces life in prison if he’s convicted on all counts.
“And, you know, these are consensual adults doing what consensual adults do, you know.”
Combs is being held in Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center and has been denied bail twice.
The Sun has reached out to Combs’ legal team for comment.
