Federal agents conducted a raid on the Los Angeles home of entertainment mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs, resulting in the detention of his sons Justin and Christian Combs. The raid, captured on surveillance footage shared by celebrity stylist Misa Hylton, showed multiple armed agents arriving at the property in three large vehicles. The incident took place under a warrant issued by the Southern District of New York and was carried out by Homeland Security.
In the footage, an agent was seen tampering with a camera at the entrance, redirecting its view towards the bushes. Inside the home, Christian Combs was placed against a wall with his hands on his head by an officer, who then proceeded to handcuff him. Another agent stood nearby with a large weapon. Justin Combs later entered the hallway with his hands on his head, while two agents pointed their guns in his direction. Both sons were eventually escorted outside.
Misa Hylton, who shares a son with Sean Combs, expressed her outrage on Instagram, condemning the excessive use of force against her sons. She criticized the treatment of the young Black men, suggesting that if they were the sons of a non-Black celebrity, they would not have faced the same aggression. Hylton also questioned the need for firearms to be pointed at her sons, highlighting the disproportionate response often seen in encounters involving unarmed Black men.
Attorney Jeffrey Lichtman is currently investigating the incident on behalf of Hylton, focusing on allegations of excessive use of force. Sean Combs’ attorney, Aaron Dyer, has previously denounced the searches, stating that there is no justification for the hostile treatment of Combs’ children and employees. Dyer emphasized that no criminal or civil liability has been established regarding the accusations made against Combs in recent civil lawsuits.
Authorities have not disclosed the specific reasons behind the raids, but a source familiar with the matter confirmed that they are related to a federal sex trafficking investigation. Several individuals have filed civil lawsuits against Combs, accusing him of sex trafficking, sexual assault, and physical abuse.
