DIDDY has swapped his life of luxury for a high-profile dormitory where inmates can "spy on female convicts", insiders have claimed. The disgraced rapper, 55, is being held at the Metropolitan Detention Center (MDC) in Brooklyn, New York City, as he awaits his May 5 trial for racketeering and sex trafficking. He has pleaded not guilty to them and denies all the criminal and civil allegations that have been made against him.
The music mogul, real name Sean Combs, has tried again for an early jail release as he seeks a $50m bail to prepare for his trial. But in the meantime, Combs will have to call his jailhouse setup in the 4 North unit of MDC home, which comes with an unsettling feature, The New York Post reports. According to the outlet, inmates in his unit reportedly have a direct view of the women’s floor below thanks to grates that allow male prisoners to spy on female inmates through small holes.
Read more on Diddy Gene Borrello, a former inmate and mob enforcer familiar with 4 North’s environment, explained: “If you lay down, you can look through the holes and talk to the women." Another ex-inmate, identified as G-Lock, claimed that female prisoners occasionally engage in provocative behavior visible through the grate. But Borrello was quick to temper expectations, pointing out that the women housed on the third floor are far removed from the glamorous figures alleged to have attended Diddy’s infamous “Freak Offs” — orgies reportedly orchestrated by the music mogul.
“They’re gross,” Borrello bluntly stated. Most read in Celebrity “Most of them are drug addicts.” Diddy’s current accommodations come with surprising freedoms and amenities.
Designed for high-profile inmates needing close protection, the 4 North unit offers more leniency than general population. With no individual cells, inmates live dorm-style with steel-framed beds placed less than a foot apart. Amenities include board games, air hockey, a gym, and tablets for movies and music.
But the comforts are modest. Mattresses are just 1.5 inches thick, pillows are nonexistent, and privacy in the showers and bathrooms is limited to a thin curtain.
Inmates must stick to a loosely structured routine, with early wake-up calls and head counts, but they do enjoy some flexibility. “With the right cop, you can spend all night watching television,” Borrello noted. Despite the relative calm of 4 North, the day-to-day life is far removed from Diddy’s world of private jets, haute cuisine, and sprawling mansions.
Instead of truffle pasta, he now faces options like “murder burgers” or thin chicken sandwiches, with chicken thighs considered the weekly highlight. WHAT ARE DIDDY'S FREAK OFFS? According to prosecutors, Combs threw wild parties he called "freak offs" where he would fly in sex workers for days of raucous sessions. However once at the party, workers would be coerced through money and intimidated into performing sick nonconsensual acts, the indictment claims.
Combs organized and directed these parties in part, prosecutors allege, so he could record sex acts while he masturbated. After days of non-stop drug use and drinking, participants were often mailed IV bags to help recover from the revelry, the indictment claims. The indictment references key pieces of evidence federal agents found during their raids of the rapper's homes in Los Angeles and Miami Beach, Florida.
According to the indictment, the rapper had 1,000 bottles of lubricant and baby oil in his two homes alongside a stash of narcotics that were used during the sex parties. Agents also found three AR-15s with their serial numbers defaced and a drum magazine, the indictment says. But Combs' attorney has spoken out to claim the cops are targeting the sick rapper due to his race.
Lawyer Marc Agnifilo told TMZ that feds are just looking to take down Combs because he's a "successful black man". He claims that investigators couldn't find anything relating to his taxes or business so looked elsewhere - to his bedroom. For more than a decade, the billionaire producer used to invite Hollywood's A-listers to his legendary parties, which were separate from the Freak-Offs.
READ MORE SUN STORIES None of the celebrities in attendance to Diddy's parties have been accused of any wrongdoing. There is also no suggestion that any celebrities or partygoers were aware of the music mogul's alleged abuse. By The U.
S. Sun's Senior Reporter Forrest McFarland, who has been reporting on Diddy's legal battles for years BEFORE Sean "Diddy" Combs' arrest, it had been highly speculated that the rap star would find himself in custody after he was repeatedly hit with disturbing accusations - and had two of his mansions raided by the feds. His mounting legal troubles finally came to a head on September 17, when he was charged with three federal counts, including sex trafficking, for allegedly forcing victims to take part in drug-fueled sex parties he called "Freak Offs.
" Hours before his arrest, The U.S. Sun exclusively revealed the feds investigating Combs were secretly liaising with Tupac Shakur murder prosecutors on gangland activities.
The development also came after Combs was named 77 times in documents submitted by prosecutors in the Tupac murder case. Aside from the Tupac probe, Combs was already facing a slew of lawsuits, including one he settled with his ex, Cassie Ventura, after she accused him of rape and abuse. Disturbing hotel surveillance video from 2016 showed Combs chasing Cassie down and then punching, kicking, and beating her in a hallway.
Two months earlier, in March 2024, two of Combs' mansions were raided by federal investigators, who seized three AR-15s, drugs, and 1,000 bottles of lube which were part of his "Freak Off" supplies. In addition to his federal criminal charges, Combs also faces a handful of lawsuits with allegations of sexual assault, harassment, and sex trafficking dating back to the early 1990s. Music producer Rodney 'Lil Rod' Jones filed one suit in February 2024, claiming Combs forced him to hire sex workers and participate in sex acts while he worked on his latest album.
Combs has denied any wrongdoing and pleaded not guilty to the federal sex trafficking charges against him, but his battle is far from over. He faces life in prison if he's convicted on all counts..
