Legendary producer Sean “P. Diddy” Combs has found himself in trouble.
On March 25, federal agents from the United States Department of Homeland Security raided several of their homes. The house locations were in Los Angeles, Miami and New York. A new report revealed that the feds have already confiscated the producer’s electronic devices.
“Law enforcement sources told ABC News that federal Homeland Security Investigations agents confiscated several electronic devices. [This was] part of the court-authorized searches at the two Combs properties,” a source told Good Morning America.
“The searches were part of a federal investigation into sex trafficking of the hip-hop and liquor mogul. “HSI agents flooded Combs’ mansions and gathered evidence as part of an investigation led by prosecutors in the Southern District of New York.”
Diddy’s ‘drug mule’ arrested at airport
The investigation into the hip-hop mogul is related to sex trafficking charges. But the problems appear to run much deeper than that. While Diddy’s home was being raided, a man, believed to be his “drug mule,” was arrested at the Miami airport.
“Rapper Diddy’s alleged “drug mule” was arrested at a Miami airport after federal agents raided the singer’s homes in Florida and California. Brendon Paul, 25, was arrested Monday at the Opa Locka airport after the feds intercepted a private plane he was about to board with Diddy,” the New York Post reports.
“He was charged with one count of possession of suspected cocaine and suspected marijuana edibles, according to a police report obtained by The Post.”
Music Mogul’s lawyer releases statement
Last November, Diddy’s ex-girlfriend and label artist Cassie filed a federal lawsuit against him. The lawsuit alleged that Combs physically and sexually abused her throughout their relationship. The former couple finally reached an out-of-court settlement. But many others have since made similar accusations against the hip-hop star.
But despite his record, Diddy’s attorney, Aaron Dyer, says the allegations against his client are completely false.
“No criminal or civil liability has been found with any of these accusations. So Mr. Combs is innocent and will continue to fight every day to clear his name,” Dyer said.
“Despite media speculation, neither Mr. Combs nor any of his family members have been arrested. Nor has his ability to travel been restricted in any way.”
