Has P Diddy Fled the US? What We Know
Newsweek ^ | Mar 26, 2024 at 3:41 AM EDT | By Shannon Power

Sean "Diddy" Combs, 54, could be facing a new set of legal woes after Homeland Security raided his homes, but some say he has fled the country.

The Context

The hip hop mogul's homes in Miami and Los Angeles were raided just weeks after he was accused of sexual misconduct and alleged trafficking. But some tracking his private jet claimed it landed on the Caribbean island of Antigua after Combs was questioned by customs officials at Miami Airport on Monday evening, per TMZ.

What We Know

Law enforcement officers raided Combs' mansion in the exclusive L.A. suburb of Homby Hills, which is also home to the Playboy Mansion. While Homeland Security did not confirm the reason for the raids, the Associated Press reported that two officials said it was part of an alleged sex trafficking investigation.

Newsweek contacted Homeland Security and Combs' representatives by email for comment.

Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) said in a statement to media that it had "executed law enforcement actions as part of an ongoing investigation, with assistance from HSI Los Angeles, HSI Miami, and our local law enforcement partners."

Combs was not spotted during the raids but was later seen at Miami Airport at about 6 p.m. in a video posted by celebrity news website, TMZ.

"Law enforcement officers raided Combs' mansion in the exclusive L.A. suburb of Homby Hills, which is also home to the Playboy Mansion. "

Has nothing to do with the actual story, but somehow one had believed that the playboy mansion went defunct and sold when HH went to face his judgment, and dozed as a biological hazard.

Did one hear wrong?

I read that his plane was allowed to leave the country without him.

He probably is going to send it somewhere that will not seize it if the USA orders it seized.

FYI, his Gulfstream V is worth about $9-12 million on the used market.

I wonder why they are doing this now when the allegations have been swirling around for years? Will this be another Epstein case where nobody gets arrested and the evidence is hidden from the public? I guess P Diddy is not useful anymore. He reached his expiration date.

Nearing 3 decades of this. This could envelop a whole bunch of people.

I don’t understand why DHS is involved.

Antigua, like a few other islands in the Carribean, has a citizenship by investment program. Starts at $100,000. What it might cost to avoid extradition, who knows, but he’s got enough to cut a deal somewhere

Cheap bird for a supposed billionaire

They always inflate these hip hop guys

This one is mostly an icon to Xers

I’m too old for rap

They must have a lot to be so public in pursuit of a black celebrity

“I don’t understand why DHS is involved.”

To make sure everything is well covered up and no important names are exposed?

pedophiles have no redeeming qualities.
They can’t be rehabilitated.
Kill themn.
And those that support them.
This includes prosecutors and judges.

I’ve seen people say that before. I don’t know where that info came from. It’s totally false.

The Mansion was bought By Daren Metropoulos.

Ooh. That is a fascinating angle.

I guess Diddy’s next rap song will be I think we’re alone now.
