The Nasty Boy Records founder’s non-public jet, tracked by various media shops all around the raid, headed to Antigua, leaving many to desire he was once intentionally fleeing the nation. But Combs ended up no longer being onboard — so the put is he?

Among those presumably kept for questioning all around the raids consist of Diddy’s sons, 30-one year-faded Justin Combs and 25-one year-faded Christian “King” Combs. Loads of reviews teach that federal brokers puzzled several of us real outside a home owned by Combs’ production company within the Los Angeles neighborhood of Holmby Hills. The tune was once no longer present at both of the raid areas.

For the length of the raids, Combs’ non-public jet, LoveAir LLC, reportedly departed from the Sacramento Govt Airport on the evening of March 24, touchdown at Palm Springs World Airport roughly an hour later. Some other hour handed prior to the flight left Palm Springs, arriving at the Van Nuys Airport in Los Angeles at spherical 8 PM.

Some of his associates were additionally stopped by officers; 25-one year-faded Brendan Paul, a recognized Combs affiliate no longer too lengthy ago accused in a lawsuit of being his “drug mule,” was once taken into custody by Miami-Dade police working alongside Area of initiating Security brokers.

In all likelihood essentially the most damning proof is contained within the a total bunch of hours of video and audio pictures Jones’ lawsuit alleges he accumulated all over his time with Combs. Whether that lawsuit — or the handful of others against him over the final several months — bears any attain on the horrid federal investigation into Combs stays to be considered.
