Sean 'Diddy' Combs reportedly no longer on suicide watch. Earlier this month, the hip-hop mogul was arrested and charged with sex trafficking, racketeering, and transportation to engage in prostitution. Combs pleaded not guilty to the charges. In the days following his arrest, a representative confirmed the 54-year-old had been put on suicide watch while at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, though the designation was "procedural" and a preventative measure. However, a source told People on Sunday that Combs is no longer being monitored at all times. ”He is focused and very strong. He is concentrating on his defence and preparing for his trial," a lawyer told the outlet. According to the U.S. Department of Justice National Institute of Corrections, suicide watch is the "supervisory precautions taken for suicidal inmates that require frequent observation”. In addition, an insider told People that Combs has received a visit from family while he remains in custody at the detention centre. Yet, it is not clear whether it was his children or other family members that were granted permission for the meeting. He is next due to make a court appearance in early October.
