As it happened: Hotel rooms cleaned to ‘protect’ Diddy’s public image, court hears
George Kaplan, a former assistant to Combs, is still on the stand, describing how he travelled with the musician by private jet.
He would set up hotel rooms for Combs, including clothes, candles, baby oil, Astroglide [lubricant], adding that Combs would host a female partner at the hotel.
After Combs left, it would be Kaplan’s job to collect his belongings, take the baby oil away, tidy away “lots” of liquor bottles, the court hears.
On a couple of occasions, Combs had Kaplan bring him drugs, he says, though he never asked him to get a specific type of drug.
