Feds Take Custody of Diddy's 'Ibiza Tapes' and Devices Under Forfeiture Order

Prosecutors' agreement with Sean Combs formalizes federal control of the seized cache through U.S. Customs.

Overview

  • Court papers filed this week show Combs agreed to surrender cassette "Ibiza Tapes" and a trove of electronics seized during the investigation.
  • U.S. Customs and Border Protection will maintain secure custody of the materials under the forfeiture order.
  • The cache stems from March 2024 raids on Combs' properties and includes hard drives, phones, computers, and $9,000 seized at a Manhattan hotel.
  • Prosecutors described the items as property used or intended to be used in connection with the prostitution-related offenses.
  • The contents of the "Ibiza Tapes" were not described in the filings, as Combs serves a roughly four-year sentence and pursues an appeal.
