MAUI, HI - A court filing accuses a former Las Vegas police captain, who is now the police chief of the Maui Police Department, of helping cover up a gang rape allegedly carried out by Sean "Diddy" Combs, NFL star Odell Beckham Jr., and comedian Druski.
According to the New York Post, Maui Police Chief John Pelletier is accused of trying to conceal the horrific attack on one of Comb's accusers, Ashley Parham, after it was reported back in 2018. The amended lawsuit was filed in a federal court in Northern California. The police chief as well as the celebrities allegedly involved have denied their involvement.
The court documents state that Pelletier, who at the time was a police captain in Las Vegas, posed as a Contra Costa sheriff's deputy when he responded to a 911 call about the alleged sexual attack at a home in Orinda, California. The accuser claims a neighbor, who at the time, she believed to be a good Samaritan, called the cops after she fled the home in the wake of the alleged gang rape.
The lawsuit states, "Pelletier, falsely posing as a Contra Costa Sheriff, told [the alleged victim] and the neighbor that they had received several noise complaints prior to the neighbor's call and instructed [Parham] to find a way to get home." Pelletier allegedly did not offer to take the woman home, call an ambulance, take her to the hospital, or help retrieve her belongings from the home she had just fled.
The accuser also alleges seeing Pelletier hand what appeared to be an envelope to the neighbor. The paperwork states, "The neighbor went to a nearby room and quickly returned empty-handed." The victim believes that the "envelope contained cash."
Parham's initial lawsuit detailing the alleged assault was first filed in October 2024 and it did not identify Pelletier by name nor did it name Beckham Jr. or Druski. A spokesperson for Pelletier said in a statement, "We are confident that the evidence will demonstrate these claims to be false and will expose those who are deliberately trying to manipulate the legal system to spread misleading narratives."
The initial lawsuit claims that Combs threatened her with a knife and used a TV remote to rape the alleged victim in an apparent revenge attack after the woman suggested a month earlier that Diddy was involved in Tupac Shakur's murder. She alleges in the lawsuit that a handful of other men then took turns raping her.
On Tuesday, March 11th, Beckham Jr., wrote on X, "There is absolutely no truth to those allegations. I do not know and have never met the person that filed the suit." He added, "I have never done anything like that, and I would never do anything like that to anyone. I'm confident that these ridiculous claims against me will be dismissed."
Druski called the whole thing a fabricated lie. He wrote on X, "I wasn't even a public figure in 2018 — I was broke living with my mom without any connections to the entertainment industry at the time of this allegation, so the inclusion of my name is truly outlandish. My heart breaks for actual victims of abuse, but I'm fully confident that the evidence will expose this falsehood and the individuals who are maliciously trying to game the legal system to peddle false narratives."
According to 8newsnow, Maui County Mayor Richard Bissen commented on the allegations against Pelletier, saying the police chief should be placed on administrative leave pending further investigation. He said, "There is precedent within the County of Maui government for placing appointed officials on leave while allegations against them are investigated.
This approach does not constitute a presumption of guilt but ensures that the individual in question is not in a position that may compromise the integrity of the office while the matter is under review."
Combs still denies all of the claims leveled against him. Diddy's attorney said, "This new complaint, brought by an attorney who has already been sued for defaming Mr. Combs, demonstrates the depraved lengths plaintiffs will travel to garner headlines in pursuit of a payday. Mr. Combs was nowhere near Orinda, California on the day Ms. Parham claims she was assaulted there, and the Contra Costa Sheriff's Department has already confirmed Ms. Parham's claims were determined to be unfounded following a thorough investigation."
