The notorious Metropolitan Detention Center (MDC) in Brooklyn has been a prison for Sean “Diddy” Combs, the hip-hop mogul, who has been given a four-year and two-month prison sentence.
Disgraced rapper Sean “Diddy” Combs is begging the judge to serve his four-yer jail term at a low-level facility, it is understood.
Diddy was sentenced to four years and two months in prison on Friday after he was found guilty on two counts of transportation for prostitution. The 55-year-old artist has, since last September, been locked up at the infamous Metropolitan Detention Center (MDC) in Brooklyn, New York City, where he has been held in the Special Housing Unit.
However, it is believed that the rebuffed musician requested to spend some time in the low-security facility Fort Dix in New Jersey. According to the report, Diddy’s legal team requested that he move to the smaller facility when the time comes.
The star was detained in New York City on Friday after being found guilty of two prostitution-related transportation charges. He cried as he was detained.

The Court would like to respectfully suggest that the Bureau of Prisons in Mr. Combs’ Judgment be given a designation facility, according to a note from defense attorney Teny Geragos that is said to have been sent to Judge Arun Subramanian.
We ask that the Court make a strong recommendation to the Bureau of Prisons that Mr. Combs be placed at FCI Fort Dix for RDAP (Residential Drug Abuse Treatment Program) purposes and any other available educational and occupational programs in order to address drug abuse issues and maximize family visitation and rehabilitative efforts.

The Daily Mail reports RDAPs are voluntary programs in federal prisons, which offer cognitive-behavioral therapy for people with substance abuse disorders.
They typically last six to twelve months. Enrolled prisoners typically reside in a specific area of the prison and choose between work and educational programs geared toward drug abuse.
Combs admitted in court that this was his first sobriety in 25 years while he was a federal prisoner. I lost my way, he said. In the course of my journey, I lost myself. Drugs and excess are what they left behind.
