Diddy reportedly got caught getting intoxicated in the prison

According to recent reports by TMZ, Sean "Diddy" Combs was caught drinking alcohol while serving his time at the Fort Dix prison. The Express Tribune stated that this was contradictory to his claim of heading on a journey of sobriety.

Reports further suggest that the alcohol was handmade using ingredients like Fanta and apples, the mixture of which was then allowed to ferment for about two weeks before consumption. The outlet further claimed that the alleged incident got him in trouble with prison officials who, however, decided to give him another chance.

The alleged incident has particularly gained traction since the primary reason for his transfer to the New Jersey prison was to get enrolled into the Residential Drug Abuse Program. Correctional officials told CBS News that inmates had to qualify to get into the program and that most inmates usually couldn't do it at the beginning of their sentence. Diddy's publicist, Juda Engelmayer, told the outlet,

"Mr. Combs is an active participant in the Residential Drug Abuse Program (RDAP) and has taken his rehabilitation process seriously from the start."

According to the exclusive article by CBS News, Combs has been assigned the job as a chaplain's assistant. Engelmayer revealed that the rapper is currently working in the chapel library, the ambiance of which he has described as "warm, respectful, and rewarding." 

According to NBC News, Sean "Diddy" Combs has been sentenced to 50 months in jail. The rapper was convicted on two counts of transporting people for prostitution.
