A man was arrested in Miami on Monday after federal agents intercepted a private jet allegedly belonging to Sean “Diddy” Combs. The man, identified as Brendan Paul, 25, was booked on drug charges including possession of suspected cocaine and marijuana candy.
According to an affidavit obtained by TMZ, officers working with Homeland Security and Customs and Border Protection discovered substances believed to be narcotics. Upon testing, the substances were confirmed to be drugs, leading to Paul's arrest. He has since been bailed out of jail.
Paul was previously mentioned in a lawsuit filed by Rodney “Lil Rod” Jones against Diddy, where he claimed the music mogul sexually assaulted him during work on an album. Jones alleged that Paul served as Diddy's confidant and often carried a firearm, as well as being involved in acquiring and distributing guns and drugs for Combs. The lawsuit also mentioned Paul's involvement in negotiating fees for sex workers while working for Diddy.
Diddy has denied all allegations made by Jones. The Department of Homeland Security conducted raids on Diddy's Miami and Los Angeles properties on Monday as part of a sex trafficking investigation.
