Sean “Diddy” Combs will remain held at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn after his bail request was denied again. The attorneys for Diddy vow to keep working to get their client out of the MDC, which has a notorious reputation for poor conditions, violence, and other issues.

Sean “Diddy” Combs, 54, is reportedly being held in a special unit inside the MDC as reported by ABC News. Judge Andrew Carter ruled on the motion Wednesday (September 18) despite concessions offered by Combs and his team to limit visits to his home from women and other stipulations. Combs currently faces charges of sex trafficking by force, transportation to engage in prostitution, and racketeering.

Judge Carter added in the ruling that the offers made by Combs’ defense team fell short of the requirements needed to move ahead and allow Combs to go free ahead of his sentencing for the aforementioned crimes. ABC News wrote in their report that Combs did not display much in the way of emotion to the bail denial.

Combs’ attorney Marc Agnifilo said their side plans to appeal the ruling and told a gathering of reporters of their plan to move ahead.

“The fight continues, we’re not giving up by a long shot,” Agnifilo said. He also added that the team is undecided on whether or not to waive Combs’ right to a speedy trial but wants his client to wait for the sentencing in the comfort of his Star Island home.

“Mr. Combs has maintained he’s innocent,” Agnifilo added. “He’s a smart guy, he knows what he did and what he didn’t do, he knows what he intended and didn’t intend and I believe him… he’s a man who knows what it’s like to have a jury of 12 New Yorkers look at you and say ‘not guilty’ and he’s looking forward to that happening again.”

Prosecutors in the matter are angling for Combs to remain held due to what they said are patterns of abusive behavior and the power and influence the music mogul wield in several walks in the entertainment business.

Before the hearing concluded, Judge Carter spoke about the disturbing 2016 video footage of Combs hitting and dragging his then-girlfriend Cassie Ventura down a hotel hallway. The defense team attempted to frame Combs’ actions as a reaction to their 10-year relationship ending over him stepping outside their relationship.
