Lewis Hamilton DELETES post that called P Diddy a ‘brother’ and thanked the disgraced music mogul for ‘always showing love’, before his sex trafficking indictment
Lewis Hamilton has deleted a social media post that labelled disgraced rapper Sean ‘Diddy‘ Combs as a ‘brother’.
Combs was arrested last month in Manhattan following a probe into his alleged sex trafficking crimes, where he is accused of drugging and raping victims as young as nine.
He has pleaded not guilty to the charges that detail allegations dating back to 2008 and accuse him of abusing, threatening and coercing women for years ‘to fulfil his sexual desires, protect his reputation, and conceal his conduct’.
Last month, Mail Sport’s Jonathan McEvoy brought attention to the fact Hamilton had previously a picture to X of himself alongside Diddy with a heartfelt caption accompanying it.
The post, sharedin 2018, read: ‘I grew up watching and listening to my man Puff. To stand here today as brothers is an honour and a privilege.

Diddy was arrested last month on shocking sex trafficking and racketeering charges
‘I appreciate you bro for all you do, for being a GOAT and for always showing love. God bless.’
This weekend, U.S. Attorney Damian Williams revealed what federal agents found during the March raid of Diddy’s Miami residence including confiscated unmarked AR-15s, ammunition, as well as 1,000 bottles of baby oil and other lubricant.
They also revealed evidence had been gathered of Combs’ long-rumored sex parties — which he referred to as ‘freak offs’ — during their raids on his Los Angeles and Miami homes, finding, ‘electronic devices that contain images and videos of the freak offs, with multiple victims.’
An additional 120 victims previously came forward accusing Diddy of sexual abuse.
Of the 120 victims, 25 were underage at the time of the abuse. The youngest victims were nine, 14 and 15 at the time.
The claims were made by Texas lawyer Tony Buzbee, who announced he’s representing 120 new victims who he believes have legitimate cases against the rapper turned media mogul.
Combs issued an angry denial from jail following to announcement of the accusations.
An attorney for the rapper said he ‘cannot address every meritless allegation in what has become a reckless media circus.’
Mail Sport’s Jonathan McEvoy had brought attention to the fact Hamilton had previously tweeted the picture alongside Diddy
‘That said, Mr. Combs emphatically and categorically denies as false and defamatory any claim that he sexually abused anyone, including minors.
‘He looks forward to proving his innocence and vindicating himself in court, where the truth will be established based on evidence, not speculation.’
His case was reassigned to federal Judge Arun Subramanian on Thursday without explanation, reported CNN.
