(NewsNation) — Attorneys for Sean “Diddy” Combs have requested he serve his prison sentence at Fort Dix, a low-security prison in New Jersey.
Combs was sentenced Friday to four years and two months behind bars on two prostitution-related charges. He was also ordered to pay a $500,000 fine.
"In order to address drug abuse issues and to maximize family visitation and rehabilitative efforts, we request that the court strongly recommend to the Bureau of Prisons that Mr. Combs be placed at FCI Fort Dix for [Residential Drug Abuse Program] purposes and any other available educational and occupational programs," Teny Geragos, one of Combs' attorneys, wrote in a letter to the judge Monday.
Bryan Kohberger complaints shed light on his life in prisonFCI Fort Dix is a low-security federal correctional institution with more accessible visitation options than higher-security facilities, NewsNation's Laura Ingle explained.
The facility has housed several well-known inmates, including former NFL player Aaron Hernandez, actor Robert Downey Jr. and television personality Joe Giudice.
The prison's commissary list details food, drinks and self-care items that will be available to Combs should he be sent there, along with how much they cost.
Diddy's trial and sentencing
Combs was the center of a months-long trial earlier this year, which put his clout and celebrity in focus around accusations of human trafficking and prostitution.
He was acquitted of racketeering but convicted on two prostitution charges related to the Mann Act. He was facing a maximum penalty of 20 years behind bars.
Prosecutors asked for 11 years and three months, arguing that the sentence would appropriately reflect the conduct of which he was convicted. The state said the proposed time was comparable to the sentences handed down in similar cases.
Judge Arun Subramanian ended up sentencing Combs to just over four years, telling Combs it would be “hard time in prison, away from your family, friends and community, but you will have a life afterward.”
Subramanian is permitted to recommend a prison for Combs, but ultimately, the Bureau of Prisons has the final say.
Combs' legal team has said they plan to appeal his sentence.
