Diddy’s Homes Raided By Homeland Security Amid Sex Trafficking Investigation
Two homes owned by Sean “Diddy” Combs in Los Angeles and Miami were raided on Monday afternoon (March 25). According to FOX 11, the first outlet on the scene, the raid was conducted by Homeland Security in connection to a sex trafficking investigation.
The Los Angeles home is reportedly registered to Bad Boys Films, a subsidiary of Bad Boy Entertainment, and is listed under the name of one of Combs’ daughters. Homeland Security expert Hal Kempfer told the outlet that the searched evidence included “laptops, flash drives, and anything that would connect Combs with the allegations.”
Two people, who many outlets believe to be Justin and Christian Combs, were reportedly home during the raid. Their identities have not been confirmed. Justin was recently named in a lawsuit against Diddy that was filed by a male producer named Rodney “Lil’ Rod” Jones—who worked on Diddy’s recent album, The Love Album: Off The Grid. Jones claims he was sexually assaulted by the Bad Boy Records founder.
Doug Wigdor, an attorney for Casandra “Cassie” Ventura—who filed the explosive lawsuit accusing Combs of sex trafficking, rape, and more and received a subsequent settlement—said in a statement, “We will always support law enforcement when it seeks to prosecute those that have violated the law. Hopefully, this is the beginning of a process that will hold Mr. Combs responsible for his depraved conduct.”
Tyrone Blackburn, who represents producer Jones and Liza Gardner—the woman who claims she was gang-raped as a minor by Diddy and Aaron Hall— told Rolling Stone, “It’s about damn time. Sometimes justice delayed is not justice denied, so long as justice ultimately arrives.”
FOX 11 and NBC News also noted that four Jane Does and one John Doe have already been interviewed by the Southern District of New York investigators for an investigation related to alleged sex trafficking, sexual assault, solicitation and distribution of illegal narcotics and firearms, and RICO charges.
No word on whether Combs has been detained. However, his private jet, LoveAir, landed in Antigua earlier today. TMZ reports that the jet traveled from Sacramento, Calif. to Palm Springs, Fla. to the Los Angeles area, since around 5:30 p.m. PT on Sunday evening (March 24). It left for the Caribbean island around 9 a.m. PT this morning.
Since Cassie’s November 2023 lawsuit, many others with equally horrifying stories have filed lawsuits against Combs who has denied all allegations. However, in light of the claims, he has stepped down as chairman of REVOLT and cut ties with several of his business partnerships.
