Diddy was apprehended by federal authorities in New York on Monday night, according to TMZ. Sources indicate he was taken to the FBI field office in Manhattan. This action is reportedly linked to an ongoing criminal investigation involving alleged sex trafficking and other offenses, which prompted search warrants executed at Diddy's residences in Beverly Hills and Miami.
Diddy’s attorney, Marc Agnifilo, expressed disappointment over what he views as an unjust prosecution by the U.S. Attorney's Office. He described Sean "Diddy" Combs as a music legend, successful entrepreneur, devoted family man, and committed philanthropist who has dedicated three decades to building his empire and supporting the Black community.
Agnifilo emphasized that while Diddy may not be perfect, he is not a criminal. He noted that Diddy has cooperated fully with the investigation and voluntarily moved to New York last week in anticipation of the charges. He urged the public to withhold judgment until all facts are presented, asserting that Diddy’s actions reflect those of an innocent man eager to clear his name in court.
