Brendan Paul, a former Syracuse basketball player turned personal assistant to Sean Combs from late 2022 to March 2024, testified under immunity that his duties included purchasing cocaine, ketamine, ecstasy, marijuana, and other substances for Combs, as well as preparing hotel rooms for Combs’s so‑called “wild king nights” or “freak‑offs.” He described going days without sleep, relying on Adderall and occasional cocaine use to cope, and even sampling a pink-drug blend ("tusi") to demonstrate loyalty. Paul recounted incidents where he was reprimanded—at times fired—for minor mistakes like forgetting a Gucci fanny pack loaded with drugs. He clarified that he was not a drug mule, maintaining he transported only small amounts for Combs’s personal use, and that he ultimately assisted in the cleanup of these drug-fueled sex parties.


On cross‑examination, Paul emphasized that procuring drugs was a minor aspect of his role and insisted that the narcotics were used solely by Combs. He recounted how he accidentally carried cocaine through a Miami airport—picked up during cleaning Combs’s hotel room—and was arrested but later had charges dropped after completing a diversion program, attributing his silence to loyalty. Paul described Combs’s expectations that his staff operate with “militant” discipline, likening them to "SEAL Team 6." He testified that Combs became particularly “extremely creative” when under the influence, using charts, messages, and communications about these events as part of the prosecution’s racketeering-sex trafficking case.
