Sean “Diddy” Combs was spotted cheerfully standing in line at a Miami coffee shop yesterday following a Federal raid on his properties. Fitness guru and social media influencer Wes Watson unveiled a post on Friday featuring Diddy at an unspecified Pura Vida Miami location. The video and photo seemed to show a carefree Combs enjoying life.

In the video, Diddy flashes an “L” with his fingers, and utters “Love.” He greets someone off-camera and gives them a salute. In the background, Wes Watson captures Diddy’s long-time Bad Boy collaborator and friend, Stevie.
However, this is the second outing Sean “Diddy” Combs has been on recently. On Thursday night, TMZ spotted him and his teenage twin daughters at a local Top Golf. Diddy appeared unfazed by the recent events.
Sean “Diddy” Combs Alleged Drug Mule Was Arrested Following the Federal Raids
The casual outing follows shortly after authorities raided Diddy’s residences in Los Angeles and Miami earlier in the week as part of a sex trafficking investigation. On that day, the veteran rapper’s alleged drug mule, Brendan Paul, 25, was arrested at Opa-Locka Executive Airport by Miami-Dade Police and Homeland Security agents.
Paul, a former player for the Syracuse Orange men’s basketball, faces charges of felony cocaine and marijuana possession. He is currently detained at the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center in Miami on two $2,500 bonds.
Paul was labeled as Diddy’s ‘drug mule’ in a $30 million lawsuit filed by Rodney ‘Lil Rod’ Jones against Combs. This complaint, one of five filed against Combs since November, claimed his involvement in ‘acquiring’ and ‘distributing’ drugs and guns. It’s unclear if Paul’s arrest is linked to the lawsuit allegations or Diddy’s property raids.
Jones alleged in the lawsuit that he had personally seen Paul providing drugs to Combs and his group, as well as attempting to transport drugs via luggage on flights between Los Angeles, Miami, Virginia, the Caribbean, and London on three occasions in December 2022, April 2023, and November 2023.
Meanwhile, Combs’ attorney stated on Tuesday that the searches of the rapper’s properties were an excessive display of military-grade force. The lawyer affirmed Combs’ innocence and commitment to vigorously defend himself to vindicate his name.
Accompanied by a significant number of officers, command trucks were stationed outside both premises. The criminal investigation represents a significant escalation in the scrutiny of Combs, who has faced multiple sexual abuse lawsuits in recent months.
