Male Producer Alleges Diddy Sexually Exposed Himself

A male music producer and publicist claims he was asked to come to a photo shoot in 2020 at a Los Angeles warehouse. His name is redacted in the police report. At the warehouse, Sean Combs allegedly exposed himself while masturbating. Diddy allegedly told the accuser to assist, according to NBC News, citing a police report. Combs then tossed a dirty shirt at the man, the producer said.

The producer said he did not tell anyone for several years because he felt embarrassed. However, he came forward to the police in Largo, Florida. That happened on September 20.

Combs’ lawyer did not immediately respond to an email from The Associated Press seeking comment on the latest allegations.

Producer Also Says Sean Combs Confronted Him For Being A “Snitch”

The LA County Sheriff’s Department said it received an official copy of the report from the Florida department on Friday. In response, it will be investigating the allegations. The report also details an incident from March 2021. In that incident, the accuser claims two men covered his head before Sean Combs came into the room and called him a snitch, according to NBC.

What’s The Latest On The Producer?

Sean Combs was convicted in July of flying his girlfriends and male sex workers around the country to engage in drug-fueled sexual encounters over many years. However, he was acquitted of sex trafficking and racketeering charges that could have put him behind bars for life.
He was initially set to be released in May 2028, but Page Six recently reported that officials pushed the date back to June 4, 2028.

In the meantime, he can earn reductions in his sentence through his participation in substance abuse treatment and other prison programs. Reports from last month state that he is employed at Fort Dix in the prison chapel and is in an intense drug and rehab program.
