Homeland Security raided Sean “Diddy” Combs’ residences in Los Angeles and Miami on Monday as part of an ongoing SE trafficking probe. Federal agents were captured on video arriving at the rapper’s properties, including his lavish estate in the Holmby Hills neighbourhood of LA and his Miami residence.
In footage obtained by Fox 11 and TMZ, agents could be seen conducting searches with guns drawn and helicopters hovering overhead. Several individuals, including two men, believed to be Diddy’s sons, Justin and King Combs, were reportedly questioned and seen in handcuffs outside the properties.
A spokesperson for Homeland Security Investigations confirmed the law enforcement actions, which were conducted with assistance from New York, Los Angeles, and Miami agencies. As the investigation progresses, further details are pending.
Diddy, who has faced recent lawsuits alleging assault and human trafficking, denies all allegations. In one lawsuit filed by former employee Rodney “Lil Rod” Jones, Diddy is accused of sexual assault during the production of his 2023 album. Diddy’s attorney, Shawn Holley, dismissed the claims as false and motivated by financial gain.
The raids come amidst earlier accusations by Diddy’s ex-girlfriend Cassie, who accused him of rape and abuse in 2023. Her case was settled, prompting her lawyer to support law enforcement’s pursuit of justice.
Despite the settlements and denials, Diddy faced another lawsuit alleging rape, this time dating back to the early 1990s. A spokesperson for Diddy dismissed the claims as fabricated.
The situation remains fluid as investigations continue into the allegations against Diddy. Requests for comment from Diddy’s representatives have been made, but responses are pending.
