Diddy: It's a 'Witch Hunt'!

Sean 'Diddy' Combs says he's the victim of a 'witch hunt' and bemoans 'military-level force' used against him as he finally spoke out following the Monday double raid on his estates.

Aaron Dyer, an attorney for the rapper, broke Combs' silence just over 24 hours after the Homeland Security investigation with a statement to DailyMail.com.

'Yesterday, 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,' Dyer said.


'Mr. Combs was never detained but spoke to and cooperated with authorities,' he added. 'Despite media speculation, neither Mr. Combs nor any of his family members have been arrested nor has their ability to travel been restricted in any way.'

Why, the FBI treated him as if he were some kind of pro-life activist! 

But slightly more seriously. Combs could be right. We don't know whether any charges will get filed, let alone whether he's guilty of them. And the level of armed intervention on a search warrant is starting to look uncomfortably like a new normal and a PR decision.
