Diddy Is Not Suicidal - Lawyer

Music Mogul’s Lawyer Says It’s Routine for High-Profile Inmates, Not a Reflection of His Mental State

Sean "Diddy" Combs has been placed onsuicide watch at theMetropolitan Detention Center (MDC) inNew York City, but his lawyer insists that the music mogul is not suicidal. According toMarc Agnifilo, Diddy's attorney, the precautionary measure was issued by MDC officials as part of a routine process for "new, high-profile inmates."

Agnifilo toldTMZ that he spentsix hours with Diddy on Thursday and found him to be "strong, healthy, confident, and focused on his defense." He emphasized that his client was "not at all suicidal."

Diddy was arrested onMonday night after afederal grand jury indicted him on charges includingracketeering conspiracy,sex trafficking by force,fraud or coercion, andtransportation to engage in prostitution. Since his arrest, he has remained in custody as his legal team battles to secure bail.

Two judges have so far denied Diddy's bail requests, agreeing withfederal prosecutors who argue that he poses a danger to the community and has allegedly tampered with witnesses in the case.

Meanwhile, Agnifilo has requested that Diddy be transferred to theEssex County Correctional Facility inNewark, New Jersey, citing concerns about the notorious conditions at Brooklyn’s MDC, which has long been criticized for itssickening living conditions. The request is currently under review.
