Brooklyn, New York – Sean “Diddy” Combs has been removed from suicide watch at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, sources revealed to Fox News Digital. The music mogul was placed on the routine suicide watch over a week ago when he was admitted to the federal facility. However, this precaution is standard practice for high-profile individuals and does not necessarily reflect Combs’ mental state.
According to a source familiar with the situation, Combs’ family has visited him in jail, although the specific family members who were present remain unknown. Despite his current circumstances, a spokesperson for Combs reassured that he is in good health and fully dedicated to his legal defense. Combs has expressed confidence in both his legal team and the truth.
Combs was arrested and charged with racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion, and transportation to engage in prostitution. After pleading not guilty to the allegations in the unsealed indictment, he faces the possibility of a minimum of 15 years in prison or a life sentence if convicted.
Throughout the legal proceedings, Combs has made efforts to secure bail, offering a sizable package that included monitoring at his home on Star Island in Miami Beach. However, his bail requests were denied twice by U.S. District Court Judge Andrew Carter, who cited concerns about witness tampering and community safety as reasons for his decisions.
Prosecutors have alleged that Combs ran a criminal enterprise through his various businesses, using coercive tactics to force victims into sexual acts. Text messages purportedly show Combs pressuring victims to partake in sexual encounters he called “freak offs,” which he recorded to maintain control over them. Authorities have seized evidence, including “freak off supplies” and firearms, during raids on Combs’ properties.
The case continues to unfold as Combs remains in custody, awaiting further legal proceedings. With a high-profile trial on the horizon, the music industry watches closely as one of its biggest names faces serious criminal charges.
