Lawyer for Sean Combs Accuser Claims She Saw 'High-Profile' Person Featured in Tape Allegedly Connected to Diddy

An attorney for one of Sean "Diddy" Combs' accusers claims someone contacted her regarding an alleged pornographic tape featuring Combs and someone “more high-profile” than the music mogul, who she said didn't appear to be an "active participant in the videotaping."

Ariel Mitchell-Kidd — a lawyer representing a woman who claims Combs, now 54, sexually assaulted her in 2018 — revealed in a new interview with NewsNation that she was separately "contacted by someone who wanted me to essentially represent them" in the sale of a pornographic tape featuring Combs, which she "declined."

"There already have been tapes leaking around Hollywood, being shopped around to individuals in Hollywood, but one particular person contacted me to shop a particular video they were in possession of and to contact the person who was in the video to see if they were interested in purchasing the video before it became a public knowledge," Mitchell-Kidd said on Banfield on Friday, Sept. 27.

According to NewsNation, Mitchell-Kidd is representing a woman who claims Combs allegedly sexually assaulted her with an inanimate object and directed another man to sexually assault her before she escaped.

The attorney said she will be "filing that lawsuit within the week."

As for the alleged pornographic tape, after being asked to elaborate by correspondent Laura Ingle, the lawyer claimed it was a "catch and kill" situation and that she "can't explain" who the other person in the video was, describing the person as "more high-profile" than Combs.

"I've seen stills of the video, okay, so you can verify that it exists, that it's real, that the other person in the video is very visible," she said. "It's no question if it's that person in the video, and I can tell the video was pornographic in nature."

Mitchell-Kidd also claimed that the video was allegedly filmed in a former Atlanta home belonging to Combs.

"And it does seem that it's the person isn't, like, looking into the video," she said. "So, it's, to me, doesn't seem like that person knows they're being videotaped. It doesn't seem like they're [an] active participant in the videotaping, like they're being surreptitiously recorded."

PEOPLE has reached out to a lawyer for Combs for comment.

The Bad Boy Records founder was indicted on charges of sex trafficking, racketeering and transportation to engage in prostitution on Sept. 17 and has since pleaded not guilty to all charges.

In the indictment, prosecutors accuse Combs of arranging “freak offs,” which they describe as sex performances where women are allegedly coerced or forced into acts with male sex workers, sometimes for multiple days.

Federal raids of Combs’ Los Angeles and Miami homes in March led to investigators discovering “1,000 bottles of baby oil and lubricant” — items considered to be "freak off supplies."

Marc Agnifilo, a lawyer for Combs, revealed in a recent interview with TMZ that Combs wants to testify. “I don’t know that I could keep him off the stand,” Agnifilo said. “I think he is very eager to tell his story."

Combs, who is in custody at Brooklyn's Metropolitan Detention Center, is due in court in early October.
