50 Cent, Aubrey O'Day, and more are speaking out after federal agents raided Diddy's homes in Los Angeles and Miami amid a sex trafficking investigation.
On Monday (March 25), video showed law enforcement officials swarming Diddy's LA home with their guns drawn as helicopters flew overhead. Several people, including his sons, Justin and King Combs, appeared to be in handcuffs outside of the mogul's property.
Homeland Security confirmed that they also raided Diddy's Miami home in a statement to TMZ.
“Earlier today, Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) New York executed law enforcement actions as part of an ongoing investigation, with assistance from HSI Los Angeles, HSI Miami, and our local law enforcement partners,” Homeland Security officials said. “We will provide further information as it becomes available.”
50 Cent, who's feuded with Diddy for years, took to social media to taunt the artist over the raid, per Page Six.
In a now-deleted post, 50 shared a screenshot of Diddy's sons in handcuffs with the caption, “S–t just got real 👀the Fed’s in all the cribs, damn they got the kids in cuffs. 🤦” A second post from the rapper included images of federal agents outside Diddy's LA home.
“Now it’s not Diddy do it, it’s Diddy done 🤷🏽♂️they don’t come like that unless they got a case,” 50 Cent wrote.
The artist also wrote of Diddy, “Ran off and left the kids in the whole sh-t, yo he doing the race 🏃🏽said f–k it!” on a video that referred to the record executive as "too freaky for society."
O'Day also chimed in with her thoughts on the raids. The former Danity Kane member wrote on social media, “What you sow, you shall reap,” alongside a screenshot of the news that Diddy's home had been raided.
“I pray this emboldens all of US victims to finally speak on what we have endured,” she added.
The raids come after a series of lawsuits were filed against the mogul in the past couple of months alleging human trafficking and sexual abuse. After news broke on Monday, Diddy was spotted pacing outside the Miami-Opa Locka Executive Airport.
