The “View” co-hosts cracked a joke about Sean “Diddy” Combs’ sex trafficking arrest after it was revealed that 1,000 bottles of lubricant were found during the March raids of his Miami and Los Angeles homes.
“It ain’t a crime, guys,” co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin quipped.
Whoopi Goldberg lightheartedly repeated the “ain’t a crime” phrase, welcoming a chuckle from her co-hosts and the audience.
Joy Behar, meanwhile, called the case “disgusting.”
Sunny Hostin, a lawyer and the show’s legal expert, kept a straight face as she shared details about the horrific allegations.
“These orgies, basically, that he orchestrated with underage girls, and some of age, and commercial sex workers [traveling] across state lines, which is criminal,” she said.
“He had AR-15s with defaced serial numbers, taped phone calls and when you put all of that together, that’s a max of 20 years to life.”
Combs’ longtime rival 50 Cent also took his chance to throw shade about the situation as he shared a cheeky caption alongside an image of himself with Drew Barrymore.
“Here I am keeping good company with @DrewBarrymoreTV and I don’t have 1,000 bottles of lube at the house,” he wrote on X.
Combs was taken into police custody Monday. During his arraignment on Tuesday, he was hit with three felony counts: racketeering conspiracy; sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion; and transportation to engage in prostitution.
In the 14-page indictment obtained by Page Six, prosecutors claimed the “Last Night” hitmaker, 54, “abused, threatened and coerced women and others around him to fulfill his sexual desires, protect his reputation and conceal his conduct” for decades.
They also alleged he created a “criminal enterprise whose members and associates engaged in … sex trafficking, forced labor, kidnapping, arson, bribery and obstruction of justice.”
Combs pleaded not guilty to all three counts when he appeared in federal court in Lower Manhattan.
In a press conference following the arraignment, the musician’s attorney Marc Agnifilo said Combs is “not afraid of the charges.”
“He’s been looking forward to this day; he’s been looking forward to clearing his name. He didn’t do these things.”
In addition to the federal indictment, Combs has been hit with numerous sexual abuse and rape lawsuits after he was sued by his ex-girlfriend Casandra “Cassie” Ventura in November 2023.
The two privately settled within 24 hours, but his lawyer asserted that the settlement was in no way confirmation any sort of guilt.
The embattled music producer’s arrest came a week after he was ordered to pay $100 million for an alleged incident at a party in 1997.
