Federal agents conducted raids on multiple homes owned by music mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs in Los Angeles, New York, and Miami. The raids come in the wake of a fifth sexual assault lawsuit, including accusations of sex trafficking, filed against Combs last month.
Homeland Security Investigations New York confirmed the raids as part of an ongoing investigation, assisted by agencies in Los Angeles, Miami, and local law enforcement. Combs’ representatives have not responded to requests for comment.
These events follow a lawsuit from producer Rodney “Lil Rod” Jones, alleging harassment and trafficking by Combs. The complaint adds to previous suits, including one from Combs’ former partner Cassie Ventura, accusing him of sexual assault. Despite Ventura reaching a settlement with Combs, subsequent allegations include claims of drugging and physical abuse.
Combs has consistently denied all accusations, with his lawyer Shawn Holley dismissing Jones’ claims as “pure fiction” earlier this year. The recent raids signal escalating legal scrutiny surrounding the music icon.
