Diddy’s Attorney Criticizes Police Aggression toward His Sons in House Search

A day after Homeland Security Investigations agents descended upon Sean “Diddy” Combs’ Los Angeles and Miami homes, the rap artist’s lawyer, Aaron Dyer, released a statement slamming authorities over their use of force, particularly when handling of the Diddy’s kids, Justin Combs and Christian “King” Combs. “Yesterday, there was a gross overuse of military-level force as search warrants were executed at Mr. Comb’s residences,” Dyer wrote in an email statement to NPR. “There is no excuse for the excessive show of force and hostility exhibited by authorities or the way his children and employees were treated.” While Justin and King were arrested, a source revealed to ABC News that their detainment was customary with large-scale searches, such as the one conducted on March 25. The insider also said Diddy’s sons were later released without any charges.

However, the raid didn’t keep the two brothers from L.A. completely. According to TMZ, Justin and King were spotted arriving at their father’s Holmby Hills home to grab their belongings. While the news outlet didn’t see the exact items they were getting, they did reveal that the two siblings gathered up a few boxes and pieces of luggage.
