Diddy
Caught Drinking in Prison, Faces Consequences
Published
Diddy‘s sobriety journey hit a roadblock this week as he was caught drinking behind bars, leading to trouble with prison officials, sources reveal to TMZ.
Insiders report that Diddy had been in possession of homemade alcohol at Fort Dix, a low-security prison where he is serving his sentence. The alcohol, concocted from Fanta, sugar, and apples, is typically left to ferment for two weeks to produce an alcoholic brew.
Diddy’s actions were discovered by prison authorities, resulting in a decision to relocate him to a different unit. However, it has been reported that this decision has been reversed, and Diddy will remain in his current unit.
Prior to his sentencing last month, Diddy emphasized his commitment to sobriety, stating that he had been sober for the first time in 25 years and attributing his previous struggles to substance abuse.
In a letter to the judge, Diddy wrote, “The old me died in jail and a new version of me was reborn. Prison will change you or kill you — I choose to live.”

Last week, images of Diddy socializing in the prison yard surfaced, depicting him engaged in conversations and laughter with other inmates, showcasing a more relaxed side of his prison life.
Diddy was convicted on two counts of violating the Mann Act in July and received a 50-month sentence in October. He was recently transferred to Fort Dix for serving his term.
Upon reaching out to the prison for comments, officials stated that they have no information regarding the incident at this time.
