Those who worked closely with Diddy are terrified that they will be dragged into the case.
Music executives who worked closely with
Diddy
are terrified that their names will come out and they are losing their sleep over this, lawyer Bryan Freedman said assuring that those who have not done anything wrong should not be unnecessarily concerned. Diddy has been charged for sex-trafficking, racketeering, and providing transport for prostitution -- and he pleaded not guilty to any of the charges.
Celebrities are deleting any connection with him as it is believed that the buck won't stop with Diddy -- many high profile names will come out.
“Many people at the highest level, including artists, executives, managers and others are not sleeping well right now,” Bryan Freedman told Page Six.
“Those who have knowingly allowed and/or encouraged the behavior while remaining silent should be concerned.
“I represent a number of people who have been concerned about being wrongfully mentioned or rumored to be a part of this just by an association unrelated to any wrongdoing … they don’t want to part of some rumor mill because they have some tangential connection to Combs.”
False claims about celebrities
Many Hollywood A listers partied with Diddy but that does not mean they were complicit in the trafficking that Diddy did. The celebrities, a report said, used to leave by the time the parties used to get wilder and many with whom Diddy's photos are going viral may not have anything to do with the charges.
Universal Music Group CEO Sir Lucian Grainge protested the "offensively false" claims that they "aided and abetted" Combs.
“Everyone knows someone who was at a party with Diddy. There must be 5,000 people who could have seen anything remotely bad that they worry they should have reported,” one Hollywood legal source told PageSix.
Attorney Tony Buzbee who recently announced that 120 people have come forward with allegations against Diddy said there are high-profile names which will shock people but they are not releasing any list of names immediately as they are double-checking everything.
