Music mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs was arrested late Monday night at a Manhattan hotel by federal agents from Homeland Security Investigations following an unsealed indictment from the Southern District of New York. While the charges have not been unsealed as of yet, sources say they are related to an ongoing federal sex trafficking investigation that has been ongoing for months.

Combs voluntarily returned to New York, anticipating the charges, according to his attorney, Marc Agnifilo. Agnifilo criticized the prosecution, calling it “unjust”, and emphasized Combs’ cooperation with authorities, as well as his contributions to music and community service, viewing these actions as signs of innocence.

Combs’ legal troubles escalated earlier this year after his ex-girlfriend, Cassie Ventura, filed a lawsuit accusing him of physical and sexual abuse. Although the case was settled out of court, it led to a wave of similar allegations, with at least ten more lawsuits accusing Combs of misconduct and abuse.
Federal investigators had planned to present those charges to a grand jury, prompting Combs’ arrest, which was originally scheduled for Tuesday but was moved up. He is currently being held at the FBI’s Manhattan office, awaiting the release of the indictment.

The public and legal experts are awaiting more information from the U.S. Attorney’s Office that could clarify the charges against one of hip-hop’s most influential figures. Combs’ legal team remains confident, preparing a strong defense to clear his name and refute what they say are baseless allegations.
