Inside sources have spilled even more information about how Sean “Diddy” Combs is doing behind bars. It appears the person he comes in contact with most is the one making sure he’s not on the ledge.

Larry Levine, a prison expert, recently said on DailyMail’s “The Trial of Diddy” podcast that Combs’ daily visits are from members of the psychology department who are monitoring his mental state.
“He’s not really on suicide watch but my inside source there tells me that there is someone coming by to visit with him several times a day, you know, to make sure that he’s okay,” Levine said on the podcast.
Combs was previously placed on suicide watch at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn when he was first placed in custody as a “preventative measure.” Under the assumption that forfeiting his lofty home environment for a jail cell would result in a mental break, the standard procedure was invoked to make sure nothing happened, per PEOPLE. However, he was taken off after a little over a week of being jailed.
That doesn’t mean the rap mogul isn’t getting the better end of the stick, though. Levine said on the podcast that sources told him Combs was getting extra showers a week, a sign of receiving extra privileges. Among all of the horrid tales about the jail’s inhumane conditions and violent atmosphere, Combs’ attorneys said the worst part of being in there for the rapper was the food.
It’s unclear what exactly Combs’ mental state is at the moment but we know it’s strong enough to thug it out until trial, as he’s previously stated he plans on testifying.
On Monday, Sept. 16, the 54-year-old rap mogul was arrested in Manhattan by federal authorities, six months after they raided his two homes in Los Angeles and Miami. His indictment was unsealed the following morning, revealing charges of racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking and engaging in interstate transportation for prostitution. The allegations against Combs include sexual abuse, physical abuse, bribery and various drug offenses.
The most notable claims stem from his so-called “freak off” sex parties, where prosecutors allege women and men were drugged and forced to perform sexual acts at Combs’ pleasure. He was also accused of using video footage to blackmail the victims into compliance.
These allegations were first brought forth by ex-girlfriend and Bad Boy Records signee Casandra “Cassie” Ventura in a civil suit that accused him of sex trafficking, human trafficking, sexual battery, sexual assault, and other allegations. Combs quickly settled the suit within 24 hours, but lawsuits from other associates have quickly followed in the months since. Most recently, Houston attorney Tony Buzbee announced he’s representing over 100 plaintiffs who came forward with claims of rape, sexual exploitation and sexual assault against the rapper.
While many of the suits since 2023 have been civil, this federal case has Combs facing criminal charges. He has pleaded not guilty, and was denied bail. His trial is scheduled for May 2025.
