Sean
“Love”
Combs
is
no
stranger
to
his
defense
team
making
headlines.
There
was
the
baby
bottle
PR
nightmare
of

Marc
Agnifilo’s
slick
attempt
to
drag
Costco
in
to
it
.
Costco
responded,
noting
that

none
of
its
U.S.
locations
sell
baby
oil
.
That
of
course
made
things
worse!
Not
only
because
it
showed
Agnifilo
was
just
pulling
defenses
out
of
his
ass,
but
at
that
moment
“Rap
Mogul
Stocks
More
Baby
Oil
In
Private
Home
Than
Global
Bulk
Seller”
became
a
potentially
legitimate
New
York
Times
headline!
Absurd
scenarios
like
that
steals
food
from
the
mouths
of
the
writers
at
The
Onion.
Dabbling
in
some
*alleged*
human
trafficking
is
one
thing,
but
taking
work
from
cash
strapped
humorists
is
a
step
too
far.

The
second
shakeup
was
when

Anthony
Ricco
jumped
ship
.
Why?
Well
he
wouldn’t
say
much
beyond
“[U]nder
no
circumstances
can
I
continue
to
effectively
serve
as
counsel
for
Sean
Combs”.
Now,
that
doesn’t

necessarily

mean
that
he
thought
Diddy
was
so
guilty
that
a
guy
who
defended
Osama
Bin
Laden
in
2001
had
to
pass
up
on
baby
oil
money
for
ethical
reasons.
But
cash
strapped
humorist
Josh
Johnson
did
a
very
good
job
of
pointing
out
that
it
looks
that
way:

The
first
two
were
rough
but
hey,
third
time’s
the
charm,
right?!
Diddy
recently
got
a
new
lawyer
to
defend
him

and
he
goes
by
the
name
Brian
Steel.

If
I’m
a
billionaire
music
CEO
accused
of
being
a
Bad
Boy,
I’d
want
to
hire
the
guy
that
effectively
beat
a
high
profile
RICO
case
too.
There’s
no
telling
how
Diddy’s
case
will
proceed
now
that
Steel
is
involved,
but
if
things
come
out
in
Diddy’s
favor,
expect
to
see
Brian
Steel
in
a
Sean
John
sweatsuit.
