Dar es Salaam. Sean 'Diddy' Combs will remain in a Brooklyn jail after his second request for bail was denied. U.S. District Judge Andrew L. Carter Jr. rejected a proposed $50 million bail package, citing concerns over possible witness tampering.
The 54-year-old music icon is facing charges of sex trafficking and racketeering, to which he has pleaded not guilty.
The indictment includes disturbing allegations that Combs coerced victims into group sexual acts, filmed these encounters, and engaged in other exploitative behavior. It also claims he used drugs to manipulate and control his victims.
Prosecutors argued that Combs poses a significant flight risk due to his estimated net worth of nearly $1 billion.
His legal team countered by criticizing the conditions at the Metropolitan Detention Center, deeming it unsuitable for pre-trial detention, and assured his compliance with legal proceedings.
