AceShowbiz - On Tuesday, March 26, attorney Aaron Dyer released a statement on behalf of Sean "P. Diddy" Combs, following Monday's Homeland Security raids on Combs' Los Angeles and Miami homes.
Dyer condemned the "gross overuse of military-level force" and "excessive show of force" during the raids, emphasizing that Combs' children and employees were treated in a hostile manner. He affirmed that Combs was not detained but cooperated with authorities.
According to Dyer, neither Combs nor his family members have been arrested or restricted from traveling. He denounced the raids as a "witch hunt based on meritless accusations" made in civil lawsuits and stressed that Combs is innocent and will fight to clear his name.
Homeland Security Investigations confirmed the raids, stating that they were part of an ongoing investigation involving sex trafficking. Combs has faced allegations of sexual misconduct in recent months, including a lawsuit filed by ex-girlfriend Cassie, who accused him of rape in 2018. They settled the case out of court, but he has since faced more allegations from different people.
In response to the raids, attorney Douglas Wigdor, who represents Cassie, expressed support for law enforcement efforts and expressed hope that it would lead to accountability for Combs' alleged "depraved conduct."
