- Story Text: Lawyers and media were spotted outside a New York courthouse Wednesday (September 18) morning where a bail hearing for Sean "Diddy" Combs will take place later in the day.
The music mogul was detained Tuesday (September 17) without bail.
On Tuesday, U.S. Magistrate Judge Robyn Tarnofsky denied bail for Combs, granting a prosecution request for continued detention before trial following the music mogul's arrest on Monday.
In speaking to reporters, his lawyer, Marc Agnifilo, confirmed he will be appealing the bail ruling.
The rapper and producer pleaded not guilty on Tuesday in Manhattan federal court to a three-count federal indictment unsealed earlier that day.
Prosecutors accused Combs, 54, of turning his business empire, including record label Bad Boy Entertainment, into a criminal enterprise that recruited and transported women, as well as male prostitutes, to participate in sex acts for his benefit.
