Diddy is apparently not worried about his food being poisoned in prison, despite what some reports have stated.
On Thursday (September 26), TMZ reported confirmed with a source allegedly close to the embattled mogul that “he’s eating normal jailhouse food like any other inmate” and has no paranoia that he might be killed by doing so.

TMZ also confirmed he’s still in the Special Housing Unit at Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center, away from the prison’s general population.

Diddy has been held at MDC Brooklyn since he was charged on September 17 with racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking and transportation to engage in prostitution.
He will remain there until the trial begins after being denied bail twice already, with a judge deeming him a “danger” to the community.

The federal jail has an infamous reputation having been described as “hell on earth” and an “ongoing tragedy” since it was opened in the 1990s, according to the Associated Press.
Puffy is allowed just three showers per week while housed in the facility and restricted to an hour of exercise outside of his cell a day.

Because he is being held in the Special Housing Unit, he will also have his meals brought to him by guards and will eat alone.
In their unsuccessful argument for him to be granted bond, Diddy’s lawyers raised concerns about the “horrific” conditions at MDC Brooklyn, citing the murder of an inmate this past summer as well as four inmate suicides in the last three years.
They also pointed to other cases in New York where judges have expressed concerns about “food contamination” and “hazardous physical conditions,” as well as the jail being “infested with drugs” and “plagued by violence.”
The facility has previously housed other high-profile inmates such as R. Kelly, Fetty Wap and Ghislaine Maxwell, the convicted sex trafficker and co-conspirator of Jeffrey Epstein.

The Bad Boy boss’ attorney Marc Agnifilo recently told TMZ he expects his client to put himself on the hot seat and testify in an attempt to clear his name.
“I don’t know that I can keep him off the stand. I think he is very eager to tell his story and I think he will tell every part of his story, including what you see on the video,” Agnifilo said. “I expect it’s going to be explained by the both of us.”
