Sean 'Diddy' Combs has been placed on suicide watch following the denial of his bail after his arrest on charges of sex trafficking and racketeering. Sources indicate that this decision was made as a preventive measure due to his current mental state.
Combs' Arrest Leads to Suicide Watch Status
The prominent music executive, aged 54, is currently detained at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, New York. This facility is known for its challenging conditions, including reports of violence and overcrowding. Sources reveal that Combs is experiencing shock after his arrest, leading to the decision to place him under suicide watch, which involves heightened supervision for inmates deemed at risk.
Details of the Charges Against Combs
On Tuesday, Combs faced charges in federal court for sex trafficking and racketeering. According to a 14-page indictment, prosecutors allege that he was at the helm of a criminal enterprise involved in various serious offenses, including forced labor and kidnapping. The indictment culminated from investigations that reportedly uncovered significant evidence, including drugs and firearms, during raids conducted on his properties in Miami and Los Angeles.
Legal Counsel Asserts Combs' Innocence
Despite the serious allegations, Combs has pleaded not guilty to all charges. His attorney, Marc Agnifilo, emphasized his client's resolve, stating that Combs is eager to confront the accusations and clear his name, asserting that he did not engage in the alleged activities.
Repercussions from Previous Legal Issues
This recent arrest compounds Combs' ongoing legal battles, which escalated after his ex-girlfriend, Casandra "Cassie" Ventura, filed a lawsuit against him for sexual assault and abuse late last year. Though they reached a settlement quickly, other legal claims have since emerged against him. Throughout these turbulent times, Combs has consistently maintained his innocence regarding all allegations.
