Diddy obviously has a lot on his plate right now. In September, the Bad Boy founder was arrested on charges of alleged sex trafficking and racketeering.
He is currently being held at the Metropolitan Detention Center (MDC) in Brooklyn, awaiting his trial, which is scheduled to begin in March. On top of that, he is facing multiple lawsuits from people accusing him of sexual assault and other forms of abuse.
However, it appears that Diddy’s current troubles aren’t limited to legal issues. According to TMZ, the mogul went to the hospital last week because his knee was “bothering him.” According to the outlet, he was taken to a local hospital for an MRI of his knee, which he has previously reported having problems with.

“I cannot comment on anything related to prisoner movements,” his lawyer Marc Agnifilo told the outlet when asked about the hospitalization. “Also, I’m not commenting on anything related to possible medical issues.”
Diddy’s hospitalization comes just days after he was charged with a superseding indictment. The new filing contains additional alleged victims, kidnapping allegations, and even arson allegations.
It also extends the alleged racketeering conspiracy by 20 years. Agnifilo addressed this on his behalf in a statement last week, refuting the prosecution’s theory while defending his client.
“The latest indictment contains no new offenses,” Agnifilo told AllHipHop. “The prosecution’s theory remains flawed.
The government has added the ridiculous theory that two of Mr. Combs’ former girlfriends were actually prostitutes rather than girlfriends. Mr. Combs is as determined as ever to fight these charges and win the trial.”
