Sean Combs, also known by his stage name Diddy, is currently being held at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, New York – one of the harshest prisons in the United States, known for detaining dangerous sex offenders. The 54-year-old rap star was arrested on September 16th on charges of rape and sex trafficking.
Metropolitan Detention Center – A “Living Hell”
The Metropolitan Detention Center, which opened in 1994, is infamous for its violence, polluted living conditions, and numerous instances of inmate suicides. Diddy offered to pay $50 million for bail but was denied. Judge Andrew L. Carter stated that releasing Diddy could endanger the community and affect the integrity of the case.
Diddy’s Psychological Shock
After his arrest, Diddy reportedly showed signs of psychological shock, feeling anxious and fearful. He was placed under special observation to prevent suicide. However, on September 30th, Diddy’s lawyer announced that the star had been removed from suicide watch and is now in better spirits after receiving visits from his family.

In a federal indictment released on September 17th, law enforcement revealed details from searches of two of Diddy’s mansions in Miami and Los Angeles. Authorities seized illegal substances and over 1,000 bottles of baby oil, along with other items used for his infamous Freak Off parties. The 14-page indictment also accused Diddy of using sensitive recordings and drugs to control his victims.
