Diddy’s loved ones visit him in jail as lawyers push for home confinement

The music mogul Diddy, also known as Sean Combs, is currently in jail after he was convicted on two counts of transportation for purposes of prostitution in July 2025.

According to reports by The Blast, on August 13, 2025, Diddy's family members, including his mother, Janice, and several of his children, such as Christian "King" Combs, Justin Combs, and his youngest daughter, Love, accompanied by Dana Tran, visited him in jail.

The visit was captured in photos and videos that show them arriving and leaving the facility, as per TMZ. Combs was denied bail last week, making it his fifth unsuccessful attempt to be released from the Brooklyn Metropolitan Detention Center ahead of his sentencing, which is scheduled for October 2025.

Why was Diddy denied bail recently?

On Monday, August 4, 2025, U.S. District Judge Arun Subramanian formally rejected Combs' latest bail request, ruling that there were no “exceptional reasons” to justify his release before sentencing.

As per the court documents obtained by People, it is mentioned:

''Find by clear and convincing evidence that the person is not likely to flee or pose a danger to the safety of any other person or the community if released.''

It also mentioned that Combs remains a flight risk or a danger to the community. As per reports, Combs' lawyers argued that he should be released from jail before sentencing because of special circumstances, mainly that he’s older and has health issues that the jail might not be able to properly treat. However, Judge Subramanian disagreed, saying Diddy did not prove he had a right to be let out.

As per Cinema Blend, the decision of not granting Combs bail came just a few days after one of his ex-girlfriends, Virginia “Gina” Huynh, also called the “Victim-3” in the case, sent a letter to the judge supporting his release on bail.

Since his arrest in September 2024, Diddy has been denied bail multiple times, and the court has cited similar reasoning each time, and also said that they don’t believe there are strong enough reasons to release him.

Combs was originally charged with sex trafficking, racketeering conspiracy, and transportation for prostitution. The trial had begun in May 2025, and the prosecutors had presented several witnesses, including high-profile celebrities like Cassie Ventura, Kid Cudi, Diddy's former employees, Dr. Dawn Hughes, the Forensic Psychologist, and Homeland Security agents, among others.

On July 2, 2025, Combs was acquitted of the two most serious charges in his federal case, including racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking by force, fraud, or coercion. After the verdict was given, his attorneys had asked for his immediate release, but it was denied.

Until his sentence was scheduled in October, Diddy would have spent a year in jail.
