Sean “Diddy” comb turns his Cellblock into a classroom at the Brooklyn Metropolitan Detention Center, and while awaiting federal charges, it offers a six-week business class for fellow prisoners called “Free Games.”
The 55-year-old hip-hop tycoon faces verdict facing a verdict on October 3, a course focusing on entrepreneurship, personal growth and business strategy, according to court records filed by his legal team.
The course is offered to all prisoners, including Spanish-speaking participants using interpreters.
“Despite many successes in Mr. Coms’ life, he sees his ‘free game’ course as one of the most influential and important efforts of his life,” his attorney wrote in a sentencing memo.
Diddy has been in custody since her arrest in September 2024. In July, a Manhattan jury cleared his charges of extortion and sex trafficking, but found he was guilty of two counts of violation of the Mann Act, a federal law that prohibits the transport of individuals to states for transnational prostitution.
The founder of the Fighting Bad Boy Records, once estimated to be worth nearly $1 billion, is seeking a verdict. His lawyer said he hopes to expand the “free game” program to young people and others incarcerated.
However, prosecutors are expected to recommend more than five years of prison term in applications filed on Monday’s deadline.
The case focused on Diddy’s allegation that prosecutors called “freaks” allegations that accompanying personnel had sex across state lines.
During a two-month trial in Manhattan federal court, jurors heard from two women who testified that Didi “forced” her to participate in his sexual fantasy with his. The jury ended up making him the worst allegations that brought decades of potential incarceration.
