Sean \u201cDiddy\u201d Combs<\/strong><\/a>\u2019 friend Charlucci Finney<\/strong> is claiming the rapper endured a scary and nearly fatal incident while behind bars.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe woke up with a knife to his throat,\u201d Finney alleged in an interview with the Daily Mail<\/em><\/a> published on Wednesday, October 22. \u201cI don\u2019t know whether he fought him off or the guards came, I just know that it happened.\u201d<\/p>\n

Finney, who has reportedly been close friends with Diddy, 55, for years, told the outlet that he believed the alleged incident inside the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn was meant to scare the music producer rather than hurt him.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf this guy had wanted to harm him, Sean would have been harmed,\u201d he said. \u201cIt would only take a second to cut his throat with a weapon and kill him.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tAfter Sean \u201cDiddy\u201d Combs was arrested in New York City earlier this week, the music mogul is being held in pretrial detention at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn. Remanded into federal custody after a judge denied him bail amid his indictment on charges of sex trafficking, racketeering conspiracy and transportation to engage in prostitution, [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Finney continued, \u201cIt was probably a way to say: \u2018Next time you ain\u2019t gonna be so lucky.\u2019 Everything is intimidation. But with Sean it won\u2019t work. Sean is from Harlem.\u201d<\/p>\n

Us Weekly<\/em> has reached out to Diddy\u2019s team and the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn for comment.<\/p>\n

Diddy has been in jail since his September 2024 arrest. Following a federal indictment, he was brought in on charges of racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion and transportation to engage in prostitution. Diddy has maintained his innocence and pleaded not guilty.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are disappointed with the decision to pursue what we believe is an unjust prosecution of Mr. Combs by the U.S. Attorney\u2019s Office,\u201d Diddy\u2019s legal team said in a statement to Us<\/em> at the time. Sean \u2018Diddy\u2019 Combs is a music icon, self-made entrepreneur, loving family man, and proven philanthropist who has spent the last 30 years building an empire, adoring his children, and working to uplift the Black community.\u201d<\/p>\n

Diddy\u2019s case went to trial in May. Two months later, he was found guilty on two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution. He was found not guilty on two counts of sex trafficking and one count of racketeering conspiracy.<\/p>\n

Diddy was sentenced to 50 months<\/a> in prison in October. The year he has spent in jail<\/a> since his arrest will count toward his sentence. The judge also fined Diddy $500,000 and ordered five years of supervised release once he leaves prison.<\/p>\n
