Sean “Diddy” Combs was taken from jail to a hospital late Thursday night, January 30, according to a report from the New York Post.
Currently held at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn while awaiting trial on federal sex crime charges, Combs was transported for an MRI on his knee, a source told the Post.
The music mogul arrived at Brooklyn Hospital around 10 p.m. but did not stay overnight after the MRI. The source mentioned that Combs had been dealing with knee pain since participating in the New York City Marathon in 2003.
A spokesperson for the Bureau of Prisons declined to comment on Combs’ condition, health, or medical visits for privacy, safety, and security reasons.
Combs has been in federal custody since September 2024, following his indictment on charges related to sex trafficking, racketeering, and transporting individuals for prostitution. Despite several attempts, Combs has been denied bail, with three different judges expressing concerns about possible witness tampering.
Combs has pleaded not guilty to the charges, which include accusations of coercing women into taking part in organized “freak offs.” His trial is scheduled for May.
