The rapper and mogul Sean Combs is facing mounting legal troubles after federal agents searched his properties in Los Angeles and Miami as part of a sex-trafficking investigation.
On Monday morning, US Department of Homeland Security agents in tactical gear and armored vehicles raided two of Combs’s mansions as part of an investigation by federal authorities in New York, sources told the Associated Press. An attorney for Combs confirmed the searches on Tuesday, which he described as a “gross overuse of military-level force”, and said Combs had cooperated with authorities.
