Shortly after rapper Diddy's homes were raided by Homeland Security, an old video of him and a teenage Justin Bieber resurfaced and went viral on social media. The video sparked concerns from netzines, who argued that the pair should not have been hanging out together due to their wide age gap.
The raids on Diddy's homes are part of the ongoing sexual misconduct and trafficking investigation being done against him. There have been multiple abuse allegations against the musician, including a suit from his ex-girlfriend Cassie and another from Music producer Rodney "Lil Rod" Jones.
An Old Video Of Diddy And Justin Bieber Has Gone Viral
Amid Diddy's ongoing legal drama and s-- trafficking investigation, an old video of him and a teenage Justin Bieber has resurfaced online. The video has now received heavy criticism of what could really have happened behind the scenes, considering the allegations now being thrown against Diddy.
In the video, which was taken somewhere outdoors, the rapper spoke about doing a "48 hours with Diddy" experience for the then 15-year-old Bieber, who smiled nervously throughout.
He said, "Right now, he's having 48 hours with Diddy. Where we're hanging out and what we're doing, we can't really disclose, but it's definitely a 15-year-old's dream."
Diddy added, "For the next 48 hours, he's with me. And we're gonna go full. Buck full crazy." The rapper also mentioned that he and Bieber are connected through Usher, who signed Bieber and launched his music career. Diddy was previously Usher's legal guardian when he recorded and released his first album.

The video quickly went viral on social media, with users blasting the rapper and calling him "creepy." Others expressed concern for Bieber, claiming that he must have gone through some "horrific" events as a child star.
One X user commented, "I think Justin has been through some horrific situations," while another wrote, "The Beibs looks nervous. Who was protecting this young boy?"

"No wonder Justin Bieber ain't the same anymore; this says it all," another individual commented.
"His body language says something deep," wrote a fifth person.
Another remarked, "It's like this 'fame' and 'prosperity' got a tag on it!! From Hollywood and now the rap world... These revelations are many!!"
One more person noted, "I'm not saying he isn't a creep. I am saying you don't get arrested for being a creep unless you really p--- off the wrong people."
Feds Recently Raided Diddy's Home
The viral video comes shortly after two of Diddy's homes were raided by Homeland Security.
As part of the ongoing s-- trafficking investigation against him, the music executive's homes in the highbrow Holmby Hills neighborhood of LA and Miami were searched by federal agents.
Fox 11 published video footage of the search, showing the federal agents walking about the properties and carrying out items.
Several people were also recorded being arrested and questioned outside the properties. Two of the men appeared to be Diddy's sons, Justin and King Combs, but their identities haven't been confirmed and released by police.
He Has Allegedly Fled The United States Amid The Raid
As his homes were raided, Diddy was absent at both properties and his current location is now a mystery.
The last time the "I'll Be Missing You" rapper was seen was at a Miami airport, walking back and forth outside the building. It's now believed that he's actually fled the US to avoid being arrested by the authorities.
Some fans online have reportedly tracked what they believe to be Diddy's private jet and claim that the rapper is hiding out on the Caribbean island of Antigua.
According to a report by TMZ, Diddy was actually questioned before he flew out of the US by officials at the Miami airport where he was seen.
There Are Multiple Abuse Allegations Against The Rapper
The s-- trafficking investigation against Diddy is just one of several legal battles the music executive is currently facing. It all started when his ex-girlfriend of 11 years, Cassie, sued him for rape and decades-long physical abuse last year. She called him out for years of "depraved conduct," including forcing her into a drug-reliant and sexually abusive lifestyle.
Less than 24 hours after she filed the lawsuit, Diddy settled it out of court. However, her suit opened the way for many other victims to accuse the rapper of repeated sexual assault. Diddy is now at the receiving end of sexual assault and abuse lawsuits, including one from Music producer Rodney "Lil Rod" Jones.
Jones, who used to work as a producer and videographer for Diddy, accused the business mogul of repeatedly sexually assaulting him during the production process for his last album, "The Love Album: Off The Grid."
According to NBC News, Jones claimed that Diddy used to grope his private parts to groom him for s-- and other activities.
