Amid reports of Sean “Diddy” Combs being held in pre-trial detention at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, concerns have been raised about the conditions he may face.
A journalist claims that, according to unnamed sources within the prison, the 54-year-old music mogul was believed to be sleeping on concrete surfaces in the facility’s Special Housing Unit, with reports of presence of rodents.
Jessica Reed Kraus, a journalist, reported that Combs was transferred to the Special Housing Unit (SHU) at MDC Brooklyn allegedly due to safety concerns. Kraus describes this unit, commonly known as “the hole,” as a confined space without windows, measuring less than 10×10 feet.
The incarcerated hip-hop producer was transferred to the Special Housing Unit (SHU) at MDC Brooklyn out of concern for his safety in the general prison population, Kraus announced.
This unit, commonly called a “hole,” is a confined space without windows, measuring less than 10×10 feet.
“He was sleeping on a concrete floor with a 2-inch thin mattress, surrounded by rodents,” she revealed.
According to Kraus’ anonymous source, Diddy is fasting because of concerns about food poisoning.
In contrast to Jeffrey Epstein, Diddy found himself isolated in a prison cell without books, television or any privileges, and the “I Need A Girl” rapper’s prison situation was said to be “worse than Epstein’s.”
Allegedly, he chose not to eat out of fear of consuming food that might be contaminated with human waste. In addition, prosecutors sought to monitor the rapper’s phone conversations.
According to Kraus, “Despite the allowances given to others, Diddy was kept in the harshest of environments, locked in the SHU. His attorney requested a transfer but was denied.”

Inmates at MDC reportedly taunted Diddy as they passed by his cell.
Kraus’ source revealed that several people were heard singing Diddy’s hit song “Bad Boys for Life” as they passed by. Conversely, others reportedly made comments alluding to his music about incarceration, such as, “I thought you were a bad boy, man!”
This comes after Diddy made a bold move to ensure he is released from prison for a third time, where he is said to be being closely monitored for signs of self-harm and facing with potential risks to his safety, despite being removed from suicide watch.
New court records obtained by Radar Online reveal that the embattled rap icon has formally requested a review of the judge’s ruling that denied his $50 million bail request as he continued to push for his freedom leading to court proceedings for federal sex trafficking charges.
