American rapper and music mogul Sean Combs, widely known as Diddy, has reportedly been taken off suicide watch while awaiting trial on serious criminal charges.
Diddy was placed under suicide watch in mid-September after his arrest by Homeland Security on suspicion of sex trafficking, racketeering conspiracy, and interstate transportation for prostitution.
According to People, a law enforcement source revealed that Diddy is no longer on suicide watch.
Additionally, the source noted that the rapper has had visits from family members at the detention center, where he remains in custody ahead of his court appearance in early October.
Diddy’s lawyer was quoted by People, saying, “He is focused and very strong. He is concentrating on his defense and preparing for his trial.”

Authorities previously raided Diddy’s Beverly Hills mansion in March, seizing items believed to be used in illicit orgies, including drugs and over 1,000 bottles of baby oil.
In a documentary titled The Downfall of Diddy: The Indictment, Diddy’s attorney, Marc Agnifilo, defended the large quantity of baby oil, stating that his client buys them in bulk from Costco—a claim that Costco later denied.
Despite the seriousness of the accusations, Diddy has pleaded not guilty to all charges. His requests for bail have been denied twice as the legal proceedings continue.
