A former porn star who engaged in a shootout with cops after storming the lobby of the Trump National Golf Club was identified in court Wednesday as someone Sean “Diddy” Combs allegedly hired for sexual encounters multiple times in Miami.
Jonathan Oddi was busted in 2018 after he was caught on camera carrying an American flag and raving about President Trump as he barged into the lobby of his golf resort.
After his arrest, he claimed he had been kept as a “sex slave” by Combs, video from his interview with police showed.

Oddi was one of 13 male escorts Combs’ ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura identified in Manhattan federal court Wednesday as sex workers hired for “freak-offs” — bringing the total for the trial to 16.
She said she had seen Oddi in Miami when shown a picture of him by the prosecutor.

Ventura “tried to avoid kissing” during the freak-offs — days-long sex, often drug and baby oil-fueled sex parties allegedly choreographed by Combs — as it seemed “too intimate,” she told the court.
But Combs insisted that she had to “kiss the escorts,” she said.
Oddi is currently in jail in Miami-Dade County, awaiting trial on charges of attempted felony murder of law enforcement officers, armed burglary and armed grand theft.

He claimed he had been a sex slave for Combs and Ventura in a video of his interrogation by Florida authorities.
“I had sex with Cassie and Sean. Basically, he would masturbate and tell me what to do to Cassie. I had like 15 encounters, and I heard lots of business,” he said in the video.
“I was like a sex slave. For them, that’s what it was,” he added.

Combs made Oddi sign a non–disclosure agreement for $5 million to buy his silence, Oddi told police during his interview.
Oddi turned over a video recording of his time with Combs and Ventura as part of the settlement, he said.
Combs was “scared I will expose him,” Oddi went on to say.
“My settlement put me in a box. Basically, I couldn’t talk because I was going to be sued. They kept following me,” he said.

It isn’t clear who exactly which “they” he was referring to.
Oddi had around 15 sessions with Ventura and Combs, for which he was paid around $800 each time, he claimed in an interview with NewsNation.
“Sometimes he’d call me twice. Even three hours later, he’d call me to come back,” Oddi said.
Oddi originally met Combs through an agency that he worked for after the rapper and producer requested a show.
He was told to dress as a police officer, before he “stripped down and then, you know, they offer me some more money for extra stuff,” he said.
Combs “would sit in a corner on the sofa, watching, masturbating. And he’d say, he’d tell her, give her instructions on what to do to me. Perform oral sex, rub baby oil and he’d tell me to rub baby oil on her, perform oral sex and have sex,” Oddi said.
At the time of Oddi’s arrest, his ramblings about Combs were largely dismissed by authorities, but his claims have resurfaced in the wake of Combs’ trial on sex-trafficking and racketeering charges.
Combs has pleaded not guilty and could face up to life in prison if convicted.
