Federal agents from the Department of Homeland Security conducted simultaneous raids on Sean "Diddy" Combs's homes in Los Angeles and Miami as part of a reported sex trafficking investigation. Multiple individuals, including Diddy's sons Justin and King, were seen in handcuffs during the operations.

The raids coincide with ongoing legal challenges against Diddy, including a RICO complaint filed by producer Rodney Jones. The lawsuit, which continues despite earlier reports of settlement, alleges Diddy operated a "widespread and dangerous criminal sex trafficking organization."

Two defendants have been dropped from Jones's lawsuit: former Motown CEO Ethiopia Habtemariam (dismissed with prejudice) and Chalice Recording Studios (dismissed without prejudice, to be refiled in Los Angeles). The lawsuit maintains serious allegations against remaining defendants, including Diddy, his son Justin, and Universal Music Group head Lucian Grainge.

The complaint alleges that executives attended parties featuring sex workers, minors, and illegal drugs, with claims that attendees were drugged through laced bottles of DeLeon Tequila and Ciroc Vodka. It further alleges that UMG executives provided funds to help conceal illegal activities from law enforcement.

Fox 11 reports that at least three individuals have been taken into custody during the LA raid. The investigation is ongoing, with federal agents continuing to gather evidence at both properties.
