An amended lawsuit has accused John Pelletier, the top law enforcement official in Maui, of participating in a cover-up of a 2018 gang rape committed by disgraced hip-hop artist Sean “Diddy” Combs, NFL player Odell Beckham Jr. and comedian Druski.
Filed by accuser Ashley Parham, the updated lawsuit claimed on March 7 that Pelletier had bribed a neighbor who had attempted to assist the victim after the gang rape. At the time, Pelletier worked as a police captain in Las Vegas.
Parham said she was raped by Combs, Beckham and Druski at a Las Vegas residence before she found refuge at a neighbor’s home, prompting an emergency call.
The lawsuit, originally filed in October 2024, alleged that Pelletier falsely identified himself as a Contra Costa sheriff’s deputy and explained he was responding to “several noise complaints.” However, he reportedly offered no assistance to Parham and instructed her to find a way home instead.

At Last, a Company With Integrity in the Gold IRA Industry
For several years, I’ve been vetting out precious metals companies in search of the best. I believe in gold and silver but it’s hard to find integrity in the Gold IRA industry. The vast majority operate with shady tactics and gigantic spreads that take advantage of Americans who simply want to protect their life’s savings.
I’ve found a handful that I like and I’ve worked with some of them. By no means would I “unrecommend” them because, again, I vetted them out and found them to be above the fold. Unfortunately, it isn’t hard to be better than the rest when the rest are so darn awful.
After years of searching, I finally found a company that truly operates with integrity. Augusta Precious Metals has three important attributes that set them far above the competition:
- Non-Commissioned Sales Team: I cannot stress how important and unique this is. With just about every other company in the Gold IRA industry, the sales teams make commission from every account they open. This means they steer their clients toward the gold and silver products with the highest commission. With Augusta Precious Metals, the team is solely focused on putting the best gold and silver for their clients into their IRA. They get paid to serve the best interests of the Gold IRA client, NOT their own commission pay.
- Incredibly Low Fees: Most Americans would be shocked if they knew the spread other Gold IRA companies charge. Augusta charges just 5% versus up to 45% elsewhere.
- No Pressure, No Gimmicks: There’s an understanding among most in the Gold IRA industry that fear and pressure is the way to go. Augusta Precious Metals takes a sober approach when working with clients because they hold integrity in the highest possible regard. This is why they don’t offer gimmicks like “free” or “bonus” silver. It’s also why they do not apply pressure tactics to get quick sales. Their educational and transparent approach to doing business is exceedingly rare in the Gold IRA industry.
