A close friend of Sean “Diddy” Combs, Charlucci Finney, told the Daily Mail that the music mogul narrowly escaped a potentially deadly incident while incarcerated at the Metropolitan Detention Center. Finney said an inmate slipped into Combs’ cell and pressed a makeshift knife to his throat while he slept. “He woke up with a knife to his throat,” Finney said.
Finney said he didn’t know whether Combs fought the attacker off or whether guards intervened, but warned that the encounter could easily have turned fatal. “If this guy had wanted to harm him, Sean would have been harmed. It would only take a second to cut his throat with a weapon and kill him,” Finney told the outlet.
The report comes amid ongoing legal fallout for Combs, who is serving a federal sentence; some outlets note sources familiar with the matter have confirmed the incident and that jail staff were involved in stopping it. Details remain limited and unverified publicly, and officials have not released a full account of what happened inside the facility.
Given the seriousness of Finney’s claims, media outlets say they are seeking additional confirmation from prison officials and Combs’ legal team. As more information becomes available, reporters will be watching for official statements or records that clarify when and how the incident occurred.
