Sean “Diddy” Combs was denied bail and taken into custody on Tuesday after appearing in federal court to plead not guilty to charges of racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking. The decision came after prosecutors argued that Combs should remain detained due to his alleged attempts to contact witnesses and victims.
The indictment accuses Combs of operating a “criminal enterprise” through his extensive business network. The charges include sex trafficking, forced labor, kidnapping, arson, bribery, and obstruction of justice. The details of these allegations can be found in the federal indictment document.
Following the bail denial, Combs was placed in solitary confinement at the Special Housing Unit of the Metropolitan Detention Center (MDC) in Brooklyn. This facility is known for housing high-profile individuals and is designed to offer additional protection and security.
The Special Housing Unit at MDC has previously housed notable figures such as R. Kelly, Sam Bankman-Fried, and Ghislaine Maxwell, among others.
Combs plans to appeal the bail decision in front of U.S. District Court Judge Andrew Carter on Wednesday. If the appeal is unsuccessful, Combs will remain in detention until his next court appearance.
