Federal agents reportedly obtained footage from inside Sean 'P. Diddy' Combs' mansions, according to CNN.
The rapper's LA and Miami residences were raided in connection to an ongoing human trafficking investigation. However, it is unclear if the video was obtained at that time or if it was turned over by an individual that investigators are questioning through the process, per a CNN source.
“They are contacting people that they’ve found on the tapes,” the insider told the outlet. As for who is pictured, the investigation is still ongoing. At least one of the individuals is allegedly a male sex worker who previously claimed to be victimised by Diddy.

Following the raids on Diddy's home, his lawyer, Aaron Dyer, told The Mirror: "There was a gross overuse of military-level force as search warrants were executed at Mr. Combs’ residences. There is no excuse for the excessive show of force and hostility exhibited by authorities or the way his children and employees were treated. Mr. Combs was never detained but spoke to and cooperated with authorities."
P Diddy, 53, and Yung Miami, 28, in loved-up pics after 2-year open relationshipDiddy is facing several lawsuits, including allegations of sexual assault and filming sexual encounters without the individual's consent. His attorney previously referred to the ongoing litigations as a "witch hunt based on meritless accusations made in civil lawsuits." The accusations started when his ex-girlfriend, Cassie Ventura, lodged a civil lawsuit against the music mogul. The pair settled the matter out of court within one day and, at the time, Diddy denied wrongdoing.
However, hotel surveillance footage was unearthed which showed Diddy reportedly hitting and pushing Cassie. In response, Diddy took accountability for the actions with an apology. He said in an Instagram video: “It’s so difficult to reflect on the darkest times in your life, but sometimes you got to do that. I was fucked up — I hit rock bottom — but I make no excuses. My behavior on that video is inexcusable. I take full responsibility for my actions in that video.
"I was disgusted then when I did it. I’m disgusted now. I went and I sought out professional help. I got into going to therapy, going to rehab. I had to ask God for his mercy and grace. I’m so sorry. But I’m committed to be a better man each and every day. I’m not asking for forgiveness. I’m truly sorry.”
Following Cassie's initial lawsuit, additional women have come forward with additional which have all been denied thus far by Diddy. The Mirror contacted representatives for Diddy for further comment.
