Inside notorious Brooklyn jail where Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs is locked up in sex-trafficking case

Sean “Diddy” Combs spent the night locked up in a notorious Brooklyn federal jail that has long been plagued by tales of “barbaric” and “reprehensible” conditions for inmates — who have included notorious sex abusers R. Kelly and Ghislaine Maxwell.

Combs, 54, was hauled away to the infamous Metropolitan Detention Center in Sunset Park late Tuesday after he was ordered to be held without bail on sex trafficking and racketeering charges.

The embattled hip-hop mogul will be held there ahead of a scheduled Manhattan federal court hearing Wednesday afternoon where he is expected to appeal the decision to keep him behind bars.

The jail itself has faced intense scrutiny in recent years amid a spate of vicious inmate attacks and complaints about dismal living conditions — including maggot-infested food, filthy cells and power outages.

The apparent conditions were brought into the spotlight during the sex-trafficking trial of Maxwell — the notorious madam for late pedophile Jeffrey Epstein — when her attorney ripped the facility in court filings as “reprehensible and utterly inappropriate.”

The jail’s conditions rivaled those experienced by fictional cannibal Hannibal Lecter in the 1991 film “The Silence of the Lambs,” the attorney had claimed.

During her two-year stint in MDC, Epstein’s madam also complained about having to use a bathroom with an open sewer drain and rats running around, as well as noshing on rotten and maggot-infested food.

Meanwhile, inmates endured freezing temperatures for roughly a week in 2019 after an electrical fire caused the facility’s heat and lighting to fail.

The violence-plagued federal lockup made headlines again early last year when it was hit with claims that staff had allegedly “covered up” a knife attack on an inmate.

Disgraced FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried, actress Allison Mack and Donald Trump’s former lawyer Michael Cohen have also all done stints there.

Combs’ time in the lockup comes after he pleaded not guilty to a three-count indictment that accuses him of leading a depraved criminal empire in which he threatened women and forced them to take part in drugged-up sex shows for over a decade.

Prosecutors described the Bad Boy Records founder as “a serial abuser and a serial obstructor” as they sought to keep him in custody pending a trial.

Combs was arrested at a New York City hotel late Monday on charges of racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking by force, fraud, or coercion and transportation for the purposes of prostitution.
