Diddy Used His Knowledge to Mentor Inmates on Business Behind Bars

Inmates at the Brooklyn Metropolitan Detention Center have been engaged in educational programming led by Diddy, known as “Free Game With Diddy.” Prior to his scheduled sentencing in October, the music titan’s legal representatives submitted a memo on September 22, advocating for a 14-month sentence following his July conviction on charges related to prostitution. The memo highlights the positive contributions Diddy has made during his time behind bars, notably his six-week course that has transitioned from an initial concept called Love Forward to its current form, Free Game. This initiative aims to equip inmates with valuable expertise in business management, entrepreneurship, and personal growth, encompassing a detailed fifteen-page lesson plan.Participants have also shared feedback with Diddy’s team. As the sentencing date nears, his legal counsel has taken extensive steps, including submitting character letters from family and friends, featuring supportive remarks from Yung Miami, Diddy’s former partner. The judge will determine his fate at the October 3 hearing, amidst prosecution's recommendation of 51 to 63 months.
