Sean 'Diddy' Combs Denied Bail for Second Time, Placed on Suicide Watch in Brooklyn Jail

Sean 'Diddy' Combs has been denied bail and will remain in federal custody at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, New York. He faces charges of sex trafficking, racketeering, running a criminal enterprise for over 15 years, and transportation to engage in prostitution. The rap mogul was placed on suicide watch as a preventive measure, although his lawyer, Marc Agnifilo, stated that Combs is not suicidal and is focused on his defense. The conditions at the detention center have been described as horrific and violent. Combs was arrested following federal raids on his homes in Los Angeles and Miami, and he had previously faced civil suits for sex abuse, one of which he settled with his ex-girlfriend. A second judge denied his bail appeal.
