Sean 'Diddy' Combs had a festive meltdown in a notorious hellhole prison because he couldn't believe he was still behind bars there, it was claimed.
A panicked Diddy reportedly pleaded with guards to be taken to a prison hospital for observation, claiming he thought he was having a breakdown on Thursday.
The guards at Brooklyn's Metropolitan Detention Center refused his request, according to a source close to the rapper who was locked up in September.
'With his high powered legal team Diddy thought he’d be out on bail by now,' said the insider.
'Spending the holidays behind bars was a nightmare for him. He eventually managed to calm himself down with the meditation technique he’s been using while he’s been behind bars. It took him a few hours of deep breathing and focusing to get out of the bad space he was in, but he finally managed it.'
A source close to Diddy, however, denied the claims, telling DailyMail.com the rapper is staying strong in jail - despite missing his family a great deal at Christmas, which is a time he always spends with his children.'
Diddy's alleged meltdown comes as a judge ruled that an Alabama woman who says she was raped by Jay-Z and Diddy Combs when she was 13 can proceed anonymously, for now, in her lawsuit against the rap moguls.
As DailyMail.com previously reported, Diddy faced a 'bleak' Christmas in a Brooklyn jail. The disgraced music mogul allegedly continues to refuse meals while in lock up as he waits for his criminal trial on federal sëx trafficking charges.
In a recent court appearance, Combs was described in reports as being 'astonishingly thinner' and 'grayer' after spending the last three months behind bars.
While cameras were not allowed in the federal court, Law and Crime reporter Elizabeth Millnew described Combs looked starkly different from how he appeared in a video playing hacky sack in Central Park just days before he was arrested on September 16.
He also faces the indignity of being upstaged at the Detention Center by another prisoner now more famous than him - and more popular among the general public.
Luigi Mangione, 26, is being held at the same facility after being charged with the shooting murder of United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson in New York in December. Mangione last week pleaded not guilty to the charge.
Diddy remains jailed in New York awaiting a criminal trial on federal sëx trafficking charges. He also faces a wave of sexµal assault lawsuits, many of which were filed by the plaintiff's lawyer, Tony Buzbee, a Texas attorney who says his firm represents over 150 people, both men and women, who allege sexµal abuse and exploitation by Combs.
The lawsuits allege many individuals were abused at parties in New York, California and Florida after receiving drug-laced drinks.
Diddy's lawyers have dismissed Buzbee´s lawsuits as 'shameless publicity stunts, designed to extract payments from celebrities who fear having lies spread about them, just as lies have been spread about Mr. Combs.' Jay-Z has said in a statement that Buzbee is trying to blackmail him to settle the Alabama woman's allegations.
In her lawsuit, the woman who says she was raped at 13 identifies herself as Jane Doe. She said she was living in Rochester in 2000 when she made her way to New York City and befriended a limousine driver who drove her to an after-party for the MTV Music Awards, where she says she was eventually attacked by Jay-Z and Combs.
Alex Spiro, a lawyer for Jay-Z, asked the judge to dismiss the entertainer from the woman's lawsuit and he requested a hearing on the case for the day after he made his requests in writing on December 18.
Citing an interview the plaintiff did on NBC-TV, Spiro wrote that the broadcast revealed 'glaring inconsistencies and outright impossibilities' in the plaintiff's story.
The woman has admitted inconsistencies in her story.
Torres wrote in her order Thursday that Spiro, who has been on the case less than three weeks, has submitted a 'litany of letters and motions attempting to impugn the character of Plaintiff's lawyer, many of them expounding on the purported `urgency´ of this case.'
Referring to Jay-Z by his legal last name, the judge added: 'Carter´s lawyer's relentless filing of combative motions containing inflammatory language and ad hominem attacks is inappropriate, a waste of judicial resources, and a tactic unlikely to benefit his client. The Court will not fast-track the judicial process merely because counsel demands it
