Sean “Diddy” Combs has been placed on suicide watch at the Brooklyn Metropolitan Detention Center as he awaits trial on serious charges, according to sources speaking to PEOPLE.
Following his arrest for accusations of sex trafficking, racketeering, and transportation for the purpose of engaging in prostitution., Diddy was remanded to the Brooklyn facility on Tuesday, Sept. 17, after pleading not guilty. He has been denied bail twice this week. Although it’s unclear if Diddy has expressed suicidal thoughts, sources report that the suicide watch is a preventative measure due to his state of shock and uncertainty surrounding his mental health.
Suicide watch is a precautionary protocol used by the U.S. Department of Justice National Institute of Corrections for inmates who may be at risk of harming themselves. It involves frequent observation to ensure the safety of the individual. While there’s no confirmation of Diddy’s mental state, the watch is intended to provide additional monitoring during this tumultuous time.
Diddy’s legal troubles have sent shockwaves through the entertainment industry, and his team has yet to release a statement. For now, he remains in custody as his legal battle unfolds, with the eyes of the world watching closely.
