Sean 'Diddy' Combs' lawyer has told how his client is unlikely to accept a plea deal.
When asked if the disgraced rapper, 54, would take a plea deal, his lawyer, Marc Agnifilo said that he believed it was unlikely.
"It's not up to me. It's up to Mr. Combs," he told TMZ's The Downfall of Diddy: The Indictment, before adding, "and I don't see it happening because he believes he's innocent. 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."
Combs was recently taken off suicide watch at Brooklyn's Metropolitan Detention Centre, where he's awaiting trial for alleged sex trafficking and transportation to engage in prostitution.
On Monday, the rapper's lawyers filed a notice of appeal following a judge's decision to keep him in jail while he awaits trial.
Judge Andrew L. Carter has previously ruled that Combs couldn't be placed under house arrest at his Florida mansion with GPS monitoring, saying that even the $50 million (£37.7 million) bail offer was "insufficient" to ensure the safety of the community, adding that "no condition or set of conditions" could guard against the risk of him threatening or harming witnesses.
Combs will appear in court again on 9 October.
