Sean ‘Diddy‘ Combs was taken to hospital from his federal prison cell on Thursday night, sources have revealed.
The disgraced mogul, who is currently locked up at the notorious Metropolitan Detention Center awaiting trial for numerous sex crimes, was rushed to hospital late at night.
Combs received an MRI at Brooklyn Hospital because his ‘knee was bothering him,’ and the trip occurred at 10pm to avoid any speculation, insiders told DailyMail.com.
The source clarified that a jail altercation or fight was not the reason for Diddy’s late-night hospital trip, adding that it was ‘just an old injury that was bothering him.’
Combs did not stay at the medical facility overnight and was taken back to his cell after the MRI concluded.
Diddy has been locked up in jail since he was arrested last year on sex trafficking, racketeering and prostitution charges. He’s been denied bail multiple times.
Combs has vehemently denied all of the allegations since they first came to light and pleaded not guilty after charges were initially filed.
The 55-year-old rapper — who is set to go to trial on May 5 — was previously alleged to have trafficked one woman, but the superseding indictment, obtained by DailyMail.com, accuses him of trafficking two additional women.
However, despite the new accusations, no additional charges have been filed against the disgraced music mogul.
His attorney Marc Agnifilo responded to the latest indictment in a statement to DailyMail.com.
‘The latest Indictment contains no new offenses. The prosecution’s theory remains flawed,’ Agnifilo said. ‘The government has added the ridiculous theory that two of Mr. Combs’ former girlfriends were not girlfriends at all, but were prostitutes. Mr. Combs is as committed as ever to fighting these charges and winning at trial.’
In the indictment, prosecutors allege that Combs transported the three women — as well as professional sex workers — across state lines.
None of the women are identified by name in the indictment, but one of the women is apparently Diddy’s ex-girlfriend, the singer Cassie Ventura, who accused him of raping and repeatedly physically abusing her in a lawsuit filed in November 2023.
Diddy settled the lawsuit just one day after she filed it, though the terms of the settlement were not announced, and he did not publicly admit to any of her accusations.
