Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs is said to be receiving the same treatment as any other inmate while he awaits trial in one of America’s most notoriously tough prisons
The well-known rapper Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs is reportedly getting no special privileges as he faces charges while incarcerated in one of the USA’s most infamous prisons.
The 54-year-old music mogul was apprehended by Homeland Security Investigations agents on 16 September and indicted the following day on serious offenses, including sex trafficking, racketeering, and transportation for prostitution, before being taken to the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn. He has pleaded not guilty but has been denied bail twice.
A source disclosed to People magazine how Diddy is being treated, saying: “He is being treated like any other detainee awaiting trial.” They also mentioned that the star was “placed on suicide watch upon admittance to the facility as a precaution” as per protocol for high-profile inmates.

The insider highlighted: “He has three minor children, two of whom now have no living parent available with him incarcerated.” Four of his seven children have neither parent available with him incarcerated. “Mr Combs has been able to speak briefly to family members and his children via phone,” they added.
Attorneys Marc Agnifilo and Teny R Geragos, representing Combs, described the Brooklyn prison as “not fit for pre-trial detention” in a rejected bail proposal and condemned its conditions as “horrific”.
Prosecutors have charged the rapper with organizing illicit “freak off” gatherings, which allegedly involved sexual acts with prostitutes and women who were purportedly pressured into participating.
Federal agents swooped on Combs’ pads in Miami and Los Angeles back in March, with the charges he’s now facing following a spate of lawsuits lobbed at him over the past year, all alleging sexual misconduct
Combs has firmly denied all allegations, entering a not guilty plea to every charge and is set to make his next court appearance in early October.
His legal team conveyed to People that he remains “strong, healthy, and focused on his defence”. They further stated: “He is committed to fighting this case and has full confidence in both his legal team and the truth.”
