According to legal expert Neama Rahmani, it is a “very real possibility”
that Sean “Diddy” Combs could be arrested and sentenced to life in prison following sex trafficking allegations.

“I wouldn't be surprised if this is another Jeffrey Epstein or an R. Kelly
type [of sex trafficking] case where we're talking about multiple victims across multiple jurisdictions over a significant period of time,” Rahmani,
an attorney who is not affiliated with the case, claimed to Us Weekly exclusively on Tuesday, March 26. “And again, these are just allegations. Nothing's proven yet, but I wouldn't be surprised if Diddy is arrested in
the coming days or weeks and he's going to have to face these charges.”

Rahmani added: “There’s no possible plea that is going to get him off with
a slap on the wrist or probation. If the prosecutors are successful and
able to prove it, he may end up dying in prison.”

News broke on Monday, March 25, that law enforcement agents had raided two
of Diddy’s residences. Homeland Security later confirmed to Us that the
raids were in connection to a federal sex trafficking investigation.

the Allegations So Far

Diddy, 54, has not currently been arrested on any related charge, but a conviction of one count of sex trafficking carries a minimum prison
sentence of 10 to 15 years.

“[Federal agents were] looking for evidence of criminal activity,
primarily sex trafficking … but other crimes as well, including potential
gun and firearm charges, and we're talking about someone who may spend
decades in federal prison like R. Kelly,” Rahmani said of the raids. “This
is why under federal law, if someone is convicted of even one count of sex trafficking, it carries a minimum 10- or 15-year prison sentence —
minimum. The judge can't go any lower for each count depending on the age
of the victim.”

Diddy was not at either of his Los Angeles or Miami properties at the time
of the raids and has not publicly addressed the claims. His attorney, meanwhile, denounced the accusations in a statement on Tuesday.

“Yesterday, there was a gross overuse of military-level force as search warrants were executed at Mr. Combs’ residences,” Diddy’s attorney, Aaron
Dyer, told Us. “There is no excuse for the excessive show of force and hostility exhibited by authorities or the way his children and employees
were treated.”

According to Rahmani, Homeland Security had likely been investigating the
music mogul since November 2023 when his ex-girlfriend Cassie (full name Casandra Ventura) sued him for sexual assault and physical abuse over a
10-year period. Diddy vehemently denied Cassie’s claims before the exes
reached a settlement. Cassie’s accusations inspired multiple other women
to share similar stories of alleged abuse, which Diddy also denied.

Miami Homes

“I think this all started with that lawsuit … when Cassie sued Diddy.
Cassie was with Diddy for a decade and she knew where the bodies were
buried and she spilled it all out,” Rahmani theorized. “And that
encouraged other victims to come forward. There was lawsuit after lawsuit alleging that Diddy and others had engaged in sex trafficking. So now it's
gone from a civil lawsuit, which is about money, to a full-blown criminal investigation and a very serious one that's based out of the Southern
District of New York, probably the most prestigious prosecutor's office in
the country.”

Rahmani further noted that Homeland Security is “probably close to the
end” of its investigation.

“There's two types of warrants. There's a search warrant, which is what we
saw earlier this week where agents went into the home,” the lawyer
explained to Us. “So a federal judge reviews the evidence, and if there's enough probable cause, he or she will sign the warrant allowing agents to
go into the home and to seize evidence. Then there's a second type of
warrant, which is an arrest warrant. So once prosecutors go to the grand
jury and they get an indictment, which is a charging document, a judge
will issue an arrest warrant, and anyone else involved in the sex
trafficking ring will be arrested.”

Rahmani continued: “I don't think it's a matter of if, I think it's a
matter of when Diddy will be arrested. … He should make sure that he has
his lawyers on standby because he's likely going to face federal sex trafficking charges very soon.”

Should Diddy be arrested, it would be up to the federal judge to determine whether bail is appropriate or if the rapper will remain in jail until
trial.
