Diddy’s former girlfriend has released previously unseen CCTV footage of the federal raid on the rapper’s Los Angeles home, criticising the treatment of his sons by authorities.
Misa Hylton, who is the mother of Diddy’s sons Justin Combs and Christian Combs, shared the video on her Instagram page. In her caption, she condemned the “overzealous and overtly militarised force” used against the brothers, labelling it “deplorable”.
Hylton voiced her frustration, suggesting that if the sons belonged to a non-Black celebrity, they wouldn’t have faced the same level of aggression. She described the attempt to humiliate and terrorise the innocent young Black men as “despicable.”

“Enough is Enough! Did Justin need several laser beams from firearms pointed at his chest??” Hylton questioned. “Did Christian need a gun pointed at the back of his head while he was handcuffed??” She highlighted the disproportionate treatment faced by unarmed Black men in such situations.
Asserting her stance, Hylton stated that her son’s attorney, Jeffrey Lichtman, is investigating the excessive use of force, which she deemed unnecessary and unwarranted. She expressed determination to fight for justice, utilising every available resource, and concluded with a rejection of what she called propaganda.
The home security footage captures Homeland Security personnel heavily armed, moving through the LA property and apprehending the occupants, including Justin and Christian, at gunpoint.

Diddy’s lawyer labelled the raids a “witch hunt”, criticising the “excessive show of force” and asserting that neither Diddy nor any family members have been arrested or had their travel restricted
