Here is what happened:
New details have emerged regarding the recent raids at Sean “Diddy” Combs’ properties. Federal agents carried out searches at the rapper’s multimillion-dollar homes in Miami and Los Angeles on March 25. Sources revealed that firearms were discovered at both locations, with Homeland Security Investigations also seizing Combs’ phones in Miami before his scheduled trip to the Bahamas.
According to a source close to the investigation, the raids are believed to be linked to allegations of sex-trafficking, sexual assault, as well as the solicitation and distribution of illegal narcotics and firearms. Federal officials in Manhattan have interviewed three women and one man in connection to the ongoing investigation. In a statement released on March 25, a representative for Homeland Security Investigations stated that they had conducted law enforcement actions as part of an ongoing probe and would provide further information as it becomes available.
Combs’ attorney, Aaron Dyer, addressed the situation one day after the raids, expressing concerns about the excessive use of force during the search warrants. Dyer described the events as an “unprecedented ambush” and criticized the authorities for their treatment of Combs’ children and employees. He defended his client, stating that there has been no evidence of criminal or civil liability in relation to the allegations. Emphasizing Combs’ innocence, Dyer vowed to continue fighting to clear his name. The Department of Homeland Security has been contacted for comment on Combs’ claims but has not responded.
