Sean 'Diddy' Combs' former bodyguard claims princes and politicians may be named in trafficking probe
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ ex-bodyguard claimed that "politicians" and "princes" could potentially be implicated in the ongoing sex trafficking inquiry involving the rapper.
In the TMZ documentary titled, ‘The Downfall of Diddy’ released on Sunday, April 29, Diddy’s ex-bodyguard Gene Deal along with several other former employees spoke out about the rapper’s secret past.
Gene Deal warns about the high-profile people linked with Diddy
In late March, Homeland Security raided Diddy’s Los Angeles and Miami mansions in connection with a sex trafficking probe.
After the feds confiscated several videotapes from the two properties, Diddy’s former bodyguard worries that the identities of many people connected with Diddy in the trafficking scandal will be revealed.
Deal warned that not only people from the music industry but also the high profile personalities including politicians and princes will be named, per OK! Magazine.
Deal said ominously, "I don't think it’s just celebrities that are going to be shaken," before adding, "He had politicians in there. He had princes in there. He also had a couple of preachers in there."
TMZ executive producer Charles Latibeaudiere claimed in the same documentary that the 54-year-old rapper had always been "allegedly obsessed with recording everything that went on in his home."
Elsewhere in the documentary, Mark Curry, an artist who was once signed with the Bad Boy Records label, said, "If they had 250 cameras they took out of his house, they have a whole bunch of images of footage of things that were going on around [Combs’] house.”
Curry followed Deal’s words as he said, "A lot of people might be running from that tape."
Aubrey O’Day opened up about Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs
Former Danity Kane member Aubrey O’Day, who has long been vocal against Diddy, also sat for a long interview with one of TMZ's executive producers Harvey Levin.
O’Day claimed, "I knew all of that was going on. I knew the whole time."
As Levin asked her "why" it took "so long for others to speak out," O’Day replied, "I was literally text messaging producers, employers, from top to bottom levels like, 'Y'all know what the f**k you saw.'"
The 40-year-old singer explained, “People were scared. If you know enough, you likely would be reasonable in being scared."
When Levin asked what stimulated the fear, the songstress revealed, "Anything you possibly could, Harvey. A flat tire, being murdered … I don’t know. There’s a lot of things people fear."
Elsewhere in the documentary, O’Day insinuated that the embattled music mogul tried to silence the artists attached to his record label by offering them publishing deals.
O’Day shared, “I received the publishing deal. I know what it says. I know how much money it was giving me,” and added, “$300.30, for a full release of all claims against Diddy and many other players.”
She shared that his main motivation was to silence the artists, saying, “I think he was probably making moves to keep as many people quiet as possible," per OK! Magazine.
“When I went to look at the publishing deal it said anything but I’m being made whole financially again,” O’Day continued.
She emphasized, “In fact, it asked me to not have access to my story and my experience anymore, it asked me specifically to stay silent and never speak poorly about a human.”
The songstress concluded, “So then I realized, something really bad is coming.”
