A pair of Sean “Diddy” Combs' homes in Los Angeles and Miami were reportedly raided by law enforcement on Monday (March 25).
Fox 11 says the raids were carried out by Homeland Security “in connection” with an ongoing federal sex-trafficking investigation.
Helicopters swarmed the chaotic scene in Holby Hills. Fox added that the property was registered to Bad Boy Films under Diddy's Bad Boy Entertainment entity along with one of the mogul's daughters.
As officers swarmed the Los Angeles property, video appeared to show people being detained, two of whom appeared to be Diddy's sons King Combs and Justin Combs. It is unknown if Didi was in either house during the raids.
TMZ reported Monday that New York's Homeland Security has opened the investigation and the Southern District of New York is handling the case involving Didi.
Advertising sign has reached out to Diddy's reps for comment, as well as the Los Angeles and Miami police departments.
Didi has been the subject of numerous civil lawsuits related to sexual assault. Ex-girlfriend Cassie lit the fuse in November 2023 with a lawsuit accusing Diddy of physical abuse, repeated sexual assault and trafficking while they were dating. The two parties agreed to settle the lawsuit less than 24 hours later.
Soon after, Combs sued two other women who claimed they were sexually assaulted by the hip-hop mogul.
On December 6, a fourth woman sued Diddy, claiming she was “sexually trafficked” and “gang-raped” by Combs, former Bad Boy Records president Harve Pierre and another man in 2003 when she was 17.
In the months since, Diddy has been accused of sexual assault in several sweeping complaints. The Bad Boy CEO denied any wrongdoing and attempted to clear his name in a December post on social media.
“ENOUGH IS ENOUGH,” he wrote. “For the past two weeks, I have sat in silence and watched people try to assassinate my character, destroy my reputation and my legacy. Heinous accusations have been made against me by people looking for a quick payout. Let me be absolutely clear: I did not do any of the awful things they claim. I will fight for my name, my family and for the truth.”
A lawyer for Didi vehemently denied the allegations against his client and called the allegations “pure fiction”.
