As you know… the Bad Boy mogul was sentenced back on October 3 by Judge Arun Subramanian serving just over 4 years in federal prison.
He was convicted of 2 counts of transportation across state lines for the purpose of prostitution, AKA the Mann Act.
Diddy was acquitted of the most serious charges of racketeering and sex trafficking.
He still has not been assigned to a prison – remaining at the Brooklyn MDC, for now – although Judge Subramanian said he believes the mogul should serve his sentence as close to the New York metropolitan area as possible.
Diddy’s lawyers asked the court to recommend to the Bureau of Prisons that Diddy be sent to the low-security Federal Correctional Institution FCI Fort Dix in New Jersey.
