Diddy’s lawyer shocked everyone by suddenly claiming that he was assaulted in prison, forcing him to be hospitalized at midnight: “His mental state is now full of fear.”

Sean “Diddy” Combs, currently awaiting trial on federal sex trafficking charges, was transported from the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn to the Brooklyn Hospital Center late Thursday night for an MRI related to a pre-existing knee condition. This late-night transfer was conducted discreetly to minimize attention.

Background on Diddy’s Health Issues

Diddy has a history of knee problems, which were exacerbated by his participation in the New York Marathon. The recent MRI was part of ongoing medical evaluations to monitor his condition. Following the procedure, he was returned to his cell without incident.

Legal Troubles and Mental Health Concerns

Beyond his physical health, Diddy faces significant legal challenges, including charges of sex trafficking, racketeering, and allegations of operating Bad Boy Records as a criminal enterprise. He has pleaded not guilty to all charges, with his trial scheduled to begin on May 5, 2025.

Reports suggest that the stress of incarceration and impending legal battles have taken a toll on his mental well-being. Observers have noted signs of distress, and there are concerns about his overall health as he remains in custody.

As Diddy‘s legal proceedings continue, his health—both physical and mental—remains a focal point for his legal team and supporters. The recent hospitalization underscores the challenges he faces while in detention.
