Former assistant testifies he stocked Combs' hotel rooms with 'freak off' supplies, procured drugs
As Sean Combs then-personal assistant, David James, testified that he was required to ensure Sean Combs' hotel rooms were stocked with 40 different skin care products, a Luis Vuitton bag that routinely contained $10,000 cash, and "probably 25 or 30 different pill bottles."
James testified that he procured drugs for Combs, sometimes prescription Percocet, which he told the court he sometimes filled under his own name.
"Did you give him or anyone else permission to fill prescriptions in your name?" prosecutor Christy Slavik asked, referring to Combs.
"I don't recall that," James answered.
James also testified that Combs allegedly took ecstasy pills marked with the face of former President Obama. Asked how often he saw Combs take drugs, James responded, "I would say every day."
Obtaining and distributing narcotics is among the alleged racketeering acts in the indictment against Combs.
In his testimony, James recalled taking ecstasy and dancing around one of Combs' parties. Later, James testified, Combs reviewed footage of the party, noticed James in the footage and allegedly told him, "I'm going to keep this footage in case I ever need it."
James also testified he stocked Combs' hotel rooms with baby oil, Astroglide lubricant, condoms and prophylactics that he paid for in cash provided by one of Combs' security guards.
James further testified that in 2008, Combs asked him to bring an iPod into a hotel room in Miami. Since James had set up the room he had a key and opened the door to let himself in, he told the court.
"I saw the Cassie on the bed. She had a white comforter up to her neck, her head to the side and she did not move when I entered," James testified. He also told the jury that he remembered a "gentleman" in the room he did not recognize.
"He was completely naked, about 5 feet, 8 inches" with a "very large endowment," James testified.
The man "scurried out as if he didn't want to be seen," James told the court.
