A video obtained by KTTV, a Fox affiliate, shows the moment agents arrived at one of the rapper’s mansions.

But the raid wasn’t limited to Los Angeles. Combs’ home on exclusive Star Island, a man-made island in Miami Beach, was also searched.

This is all allegedly connected to a federal investigation into human trafficking initiated in New York, according to federal sources.

One of the aspects that has focused attention on Combs is a series of lawsuits for alleged rape, EFE noted.

One of the most recent lawsuits, filed in December 2023, alleges that the rapper drugged and raped a minor in his New York studio.

Several of the lawsuits were filed under the protection of the New York Victims of Gender Violence Act.

This allows survivors of gender violence to civilly sue their attackers, even after the statute of limitations has expired.

Casandra Ventura, known as Cassie, who is Combs’ ex-girlfriend, filed one of the lawsuits, accusing him of rape and abuse over a decade.

«I have decided to resolve this matter amicably on terms that I have some level of control,» Cassie wrote following the news.

«I want to thank my family, fans and lawyers for their unwavering support.»

The rapper also released a statement saying: «We have decided to resolve this matter amicably. I wish Cassie and her family all the best. Love.»

It is expected that more information about his legal situation will be released later, noted Fox LA.
