Federal agents have 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 Department of Homeland Security operation.

The raids coincide with ongoing legal challenges facing the music mogul. A lawsuit filed by producer Rodney Jones, alleging Diddy ran a "widespread and dangerous criminal sex trafficking organization," continues to move forward despite earlier reports of settlement. While two defendants - former Motown CEO Ethiopia Habtemariam and Chalice Recording Studios - have been dropped from the case, the suit proceeds against Diddy, his son Justin, Universal Music Group head Lucian Grainge, and others.

Jones's lawsuit, spanning over 70 pages, details allegations of misconduct including drug-laced parties attended by sex workers and minors. The complaint alleges that executives provided substantial cash to Diddy to conceal illegal "commercial sex acts" from law enforcement.

While Habtemariam has been dismissed with prejudice (meaning the case cannot be refiled against her), Chalice Recording Studios was dropped without prejudice, with plans to refile in Los Angeles rather than New York.

The federal investigation remains active, with Fox 11 reporting that at least three individuals have been taken into custody during the LA raid. Diddy, 54, faces multiple abuse allegations in separate complaints, all of which he has denied.
