The Daily Mail: Credibly Accused Gay Rapist P. Diddy Is Angry that Leftwing Assassin Luigi Mangione Is Getting More Attention Than He Is at Their Shared Jail

Diddy is furious that alleged CEO murderer Luigi Mangione is seen as a bigger star by inmates at the Brooklyn federal prison where both are locked up, it's claimed.
The rapper, 54, and Mangione, 26, are both awaiting trial at Brooklyn's infamous Metropolitan Center in New York, and Diddy - real name Sean Combs - is reportedly raging that the alleged killer is more beloved than he is among inmates.
'Diddy has been throwing tantrums over the fact that Luigi is getting all of the attention in prison and is being revered as a hero after literally murdering someone on camera,' the source said.
Diddy is reportedly upset because he claims he is innocent of sex trafficking yet he continues getting 'so much hate inside the lock up while Luigi gets so much love.'
'Even in prison, Diddy's ego is bigger than life,' the source added. A spokesperson for Diddy said the claims about the rapper's jealousy were 'false'.
Mangione is apparently 'loved by the prisoners and is not having a difficult time dealing with everything because he has gotten so much support with prisoners who have shared their stories of losing loved ones due to inadequate healthcare.'
'Not to mention the fact that the prison, itself, faces constant allegations of inadequate healthcare to those who are locked up,' the source told DailyMail.com.

...
Brooklyn's Metropolitan Center also holds other high-profile inmates such as Sam Bankman-Fried. It is also the jail where notorious sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein [did not kill] himself.

It is my wish that both of these gentlemen should become very, very popular among the other inmates. I'd like them both to have their dance cards filled.

And by dance cards, I mean "lower colons."

6 P Diddy didn't kill himself. (I assume P Diddy operated in a manner similar to Epstein and had reams of photos he used for blackmail)

7 Why do I think he wants to share a cell with Luigi?

It would be harder to get Epsteined with a witness. He would also have someone to play with.

Remember when they were pretending that Booker was a "moderate"? That's even more ridiculous than pretending he's a heterosexual.

On topic: they should make them cellies, and put the inevitable mutual rape/beatdown on pay-per-view.

Thank you Oldcat !

It goes back to the ancient tribal honor system - the more powerful or high ranking your victim is, the more respect the killer is given. On the other hand, victimizing those much weaker than yourself, especially women and children, earns only contempt.

Ghislaine was/is there as well. She complained about the conditions a lot, but the government (rightly) pointed out (paraphrasing): "yeah, our prison sucks and would be against the geneva convention if we held POW's like this.

We shouldn't have these fantasies though. It's kind of fucked up when people say "oh I hope he gets raped in prison" (or some joking variant of that.)

We don't use rape as a punishment, nor should we celebrate it when other inmates take it in to their own hands.

Put another way: if genders were reversed, would we say of someone who was involved in an armed robbery or whatever "I hope that woman gets raped in prison"?

91 Watching Joe's presser, promising everything under the sun to the victims of the LA fires.

Meanwhile, many of the NC and FL hurricane victims have been COMPLETELY FORGOTTEN.

My FL cousin and her husband were just in Boone, NC, and said the area is still completely devastated; no power, running water, sewer, etc. And some are living in tents.

So if you're living in a certain geographical area of the US, and are of a certain class (Dems), Joe and Kamala will open the coffers. No $750, eh, Kammy?

Precisely. The dregs of humanity who inhabit prisons don't a shit about what you did on the outside, it's about what gang you're with and adhering to the prison hierarchy. Dahmer pissed someone off over something he did IN prison, not outside of it.

They usually presumably get drafted before they're allowed to win the primaries.

How do you win a primary unless you're independently famous and wealthy? Party support, getting the backing of the power brokers, making the rounds of the chamber of commerce and all of that, being introduced to the right staffers to staff the campaign, getting your face on local news, puff stories in local newspapers, obviously lots of money for staff and signs and ad buys and whatever, etc.

Who controls that apparatus if not the deep state / uniparty?

I'm not saying it's impossible to win without selling out immediately, but it's very difficult.

And that's before you even get to the general election, much less to DC.

Sometimes depends on the prison too. There are lower level prisons, not exactly white collar crimes, but generally non-violent crimes, and sometimes the sex offenders are housed at these kinds of places.

Sometimes they're not, depending on how much the prisoner pisses off the powers that be.

Of the fire areas where homes were lost, Altadena (Eaton Cyn) is mostly working class people of color, as you probably saw from the news coverage. Studio City, Pac Palisades, Hollywood Hills (Sunset Fire) and of course Malibu are high-end high percentage POPs (people of pallor).

Even Altadena - the north end - where the fire started - is all pretty expensive homes but it went south onto the working class areas.

178 According to Johns Hopkins, there are currently 12,850 inmates in Federal custody for child sex offenses. In 2022, the latest year for which we have numbers, there were 483 deaths in Federal prisons. That number also includes suicides.

189 Even child predators, if they hook up with the right gang, rarely get assaulted, much less killed.

Every ex-convict and ex prison guard I have read, watched on video ,and talked to all say the same thing: child molesters, rapists, etc, get wrecked in prison. According to all these people, there is a hierarchy in the can; some crimes are considered worse than others. You defrauded a bunch of rich people? Cool dude. You ripped off the government from taxes? You're good. You killed people? Dangerous but okay. You molested children? You're gonna get tooled over, raped, and/or killed.

It makes sense, if you think about it. Not only is there the natural revulsion and hate of someone who does these things, but these are men trapped in prison unable to protect their families. They hate people who prey on women and children. Violently so.

Sexual predators are usually isolated from the general population if possible.

Exactly. Contrary to the public perception, prison officials aren't intentionally allowing prisoners to maul each other.

Sometimes they look the other way, or they consider it collateral damage, and don't try too hard to stop it, but generally it's better for the powers that be, for prisoners to NOT be all over each other... one way or another.

And most prisoners, when they come out of prison, they generally treat everyone they encounter with respect, because it's the single most valuable commodity inside.

Low-income mexicans, the class from which the mexican prison population hales, are not on board with upper middle class white peoples' insistence that consent begins at 18.

He's in federal prison on federal charges.

Also, rape is one of the bail-eligible crimes in NY. It's misdemeanors and non-violent felonies (loosely defined) that are not bail eligible.

But the reason he's not out on bail is because he was deemed a flight risk due to his money and owning a private jet and all of that.

I don't know how to say this without sounding like a socialist, but ... what exactly do you expect Big Pharma to do? They have the same pressure from Wall Street that every other businesses have. They need to show constant, indefinite growth.

How does a company that sells medication do that? You need to either sell more medication or increase margins on the medication you already sell. Without getting in to the unholy alliance of government / media / academia / big medical / big pharma here -- at the core of it, we would 100% expect any company in that industry to constantly try to legally expand their market. If that means changing laws and changing definitions of who needs drugs and who doesn't, then that's what they will do.

272 Most of the guys are in there for a reason and they will lose control over relatively minor sleights.

What I have heard is that most of the people in prison have never been shown any respect in their lives and demand it. So you are instructed early on either by beatings or a cellmate being helpful, be polite, say please and thank you , excuse me, etc. Because yeah Bubba or Jamal will shiv you for looking at them the wrong way. And you never know if the guy you bumped into was a loon or a shy guy just trying to stay out of trouble.

One con I heard talked about he got a cellmate whose face was all bruises and broken bones. He told the story of how his previous cellmate told him to not stand up when he pee'd (more on that in a bit). He forgot, got up in the middle of the night and was taking a leak. His cellmate roared at him to sit to pee and proceeded to beat his face into the concrete wall until he was in medical care.

Why sit? The uncovered toilet is in your room. If you spray, it gets in the air more and you might miss, making a pool of pee that stinks even worse. It smells bad enough in jail without that crap. Sitting down helps keep it contained and aimed.

Try buying private insurance. If you’re lucky prices today are only 300% higher than 10 years ago. And if unlucky 500%. 10 years ago I paid about $500,600 a month for my family with very low deductibles. Today’s version of that is $1500-2000.

So with all due respect, stop complaining. You have it pretty fucking good.

294 226 There are minors and then there are minors.

Low-income mexicans, the class from which the mexican prison population hales, are not on board with upper middle class white peoples' insistence that consent begins at 18. Banging underage girls is a distinct part of that culture.

There was a bit of a scandal here in OC about 30 years ago when it came out that CPS was allowing Mexican males in their twenties off the hook for underage sex if they married the girls because it was in their culture.

I personally knew a guy - in his 70's now - who in his twenties married a 15 year old girl from down south. They had six kids and were still married 50+ years later...

295 Fire water systems separate from potable water systems are not common. They could have it, but wouldn't believe it until it is proven.

my sprinkler says it is waste water. My faucet lacks that label. There are street runoff places that specify that they go directly into the creeks so don't dump things like soap in them.

297 If that means changing laws and changing definitions of who needs drugs and who doesn't, then that's what they will do.

Oddly, I do not view selling pharmaceutical products in the same way as I do the sales of futons, or crocs. Nor does the government. The problem is these are powerful huge companies and as such they attract psychopaths, just like government service does. As bad as it is having psycho s run the government, it's also real real bad when they run pharmaceutical, and from there co opt the regulators. Covid scam....

299 The thing about California's failures here is that they are layered.

No amount of continued fire coverage would put the fire out any faster.

However, once the fire is put out, that's when the lack of insurance coverage is going to hit.

And California tried to whip the horse's eyes to make them sleep.

12 year olds are legal in some states in Mexico and I bet even younger in other states.
Culture is important when seeking new fellow countrymen.

302 This is me expressing myself as a child Catholic. I really don't want to start a quarrel, but it doesn't say much for "Apostolic Succession".

And that's where I'm going to leave it.

We lived through the Borgias, we can live through pope woke. But we have to cross off South America the list as where to pick the next one from. The Polish one was pretty good.

303 256 The winds have mostly died down to manageable levels so it's on to mop up clean up.

We have some more wind forecast for the weekend but not nearly as bad.

Posted by: Ben Had at January 09, 2025 05:33 PM (0wWvl)

If it ever rains again.....fire and mudslides are part of the natural environment here. Has been apparently for thousands of years....though I don't see how fire starts without lightning or people.

305 Just looked at Megyn Kelly's podcast site. ABC anchor David Muir got caught in some ridiculous narcissistic display. He was live in the Palisades wearing his fire gear.

He turned around on camera and revealed clothespins on his back. They were pulling the play fireman's jacket tight so he wouldn't look baggy around the waist. Had to get that tight, svelte look for the camera with his fireman gear.

The MSM can't die soon enough.

Although, to be fair, a few years back when a lil hurricaine came up the Gulf of California to the area, I was shocked to see a calm weather dude on the news (from SD) who updated the turn of the storm inland to the dry areas and gave reasonable information without panic. Even the cut where in Long Beach people were getting sandbags on the coast was non alarmist even though we aren't used to hurricaines out here.

The lower part of Palisades is a vertical wall of earth so very good slide country. The inland hill parts somewhat less so, but canyons here are like Sharp V shapes being pretty young mountains. Not like the Appalacians which are over a billion years old, less than 60 million probably.
