Sean “Diddy” Combs’s initial meal at the Metropolitan Detention Center (MDC) in Brooklyn has been revealed following a judge’s ruling that he must stay in custody while facing serious charges of racketeering and sex trafficking.
After leaving his luxurious multi-million-dollar homes in Los Angeles and Miami, Diddy is now adapting to life in the notorious MDC, which has previously housed high-profile inmates like Ghislaine Maxwell and R. Kelly. His first meal in prison consisted of Swedish meatballs, with the option of a vegetarian black bean burger, accompanied by sides such as egg noodles, green beans, a garden salad with dressing, and a beverage, as reported by *The New York Post*.
Life in prison is starkly different from Diddy’s usual glamorous lifestyle. The daily schedule includes a 6 AM wake-up call, with expectations for him to make his own bed and mop the floor of his cell. He is allowed one hour of recreational time each day and can shower three times a week. Visits from friends and family are permitted, and his lawyers will be in and out more frequently as they prepare for his defense.
Currently housed in the jail’s Special Housing Unit, Diddy is kept away from the general population, likely for security reasons, as high-profile inmates can become targets. He was arrested in New York on charges related to allegedly running a criminal enterprise that coerced victims into sexual acts, but he has pleaded not guilty.
During his initial court appearance, his attorneys requested house arrest instead of jail time, but that request was denied twice.
