Sean ‘P Diddy’ Combs was pictured with chains wrapped around his wrists and wearing his prison jumpsuit for first time as he was escorted back to jail after his court hearing.
In a new rare picture from inside the police van, which was escorting Diddy back to the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, New York.
The disgraced music mogul was seen wearing his baggy beige prison jumpsuit. In the blurry snap, the 54-year-old rapper was also pictured with restrictive silver chains around his ankles.
Diddy was escorted back to the jail after he appeared in Manhattan federal court on Thursday for an hearing that was mostly administrative in nature. The rapper appeared before Judge Arun Subramanian for a status hearing where his lawyers rose concern about the government allegedly leaking information to the press. During the hearing, the court also set Diddy’s trial date for May 5, 2025.
Diddy’s hearing took place after the former Finna Get Loose hitmaker was arrested and faces federal charges of racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking and transportation to engage in prostitution. Last week, lawyer Tony Buzzbee said 120 accusers, 25 of which were minors, have alleged sexual misconduct and are gearing up to file civil lawsuits.

Diddy has consistently denied the allegations against him and has maintained his innocence throughout. Following the court hearing, he was sent back to jail after being refused bail on a $50million bond.
And while this is the first time the inside of the prison van escorting Diddy has been pictured, federal prison consultant Sam Mangel has previously shared the grim details of Diddy’s current living situation behind bars. In an exclusive interview with The Mirror, Sam described what the inside of the SHU is like at the MDC, a jail that has been dubbed “hell on Earth.” He explained: “It’s the most restrictive part of the whole facility. So typically in the SHU, an individual is permitted out three times a week for one hour a day.”

Sam continued: “The cell is about six feet by nine feet. It contains two metal bunk beds. You’re given a one piece mattress, so the mattress and pillow are all one,” and added: “You’re given a blanket, one uniform, and while in the SHU you’re given a finite or limited amount of commissary. And then there’s a steel toilet/sink and maybe a small writing desk. That’s it.”
