Sean "Diddy" Combs' multi-million residences in Miami and Los Angeles were raided by federal cops on Monday afternoon in connection with a sex trafficking investigation. The raids follow accusations by five individuals against the 54-year-old music mogul, alleging serious offenses such as rape and sexual battery. Diddy has allegedly left the United States, with his private jet reportedly on the ground in the Caribbean. More details are still awaited.
