Before the inspection, Combs' attorney, Marc Agnifilo, complained about the food the record executive was given.
"I think the food’s probably the roughest part of it (for him)," Agnifilo revealed. "Sometimes, the more you push a person down, the stronger they get. Nobody's OK with staying in jail."
On September 16, Diddy was arrested for human trafficking and other federal charges, but he pleaded not guilty.
"It's not up to me. It's up to Mr Combs, and I don't see it happening because he believes he's innocent," Agnifilo said in The Downfall of Diddy: The Indictment.
He added: "And what's more, he believes that he needs to stand up not just for himself — for his family and for everybody who's been targeted by the federal government."
Sean 'Diddy'Combs was notorious for his 'Diddy parties.'
Diddy's adopted son, Quincy, shared a statement in support of the mogul on Instagram.
"The past month has devastated our family. Many have judged both him and us based on accusations, conspiracy theories, and false narratives that have spiraled into absurdity on social media. We stand united, supporting you every step of the way," Quincy said on Tuesday, October 22.
"We hold onto the truth, knowing it will prevail, and nothing will break the strength of our family. WE MISS YOU & LOVE YOU DAD," the Star actor added.
