Since Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs was arrested on September 16, 2024, many people have been curious about what life is like for the music mogul in prison. The lead defense lawyer in the Combs case, Marc Agnifilo, provided insights into the rapper’s experiences behind bars, shedding light on his situation.
In an exclusive interview with Variety published on August 1, 2025, Marc Agnifilo shared how Diddy was doing in jail and how he speaks to the 55-year-old musician daily.
“Every day. I’m going to see him now, as soon as I hang up with you. He misses his kids. He’s learned a lot. His time in jail — nearly 11 months now — has given him the ability to reflect and consider his life and look at all the blessings he’s been given.”
He also shared that since his arrest in 2024, Combs has not stepped outside.
“One of the horrible things about the MDC [Metropolitan Detention Center, where Combs is held in Brooklyn] is not going outside ever. He hasn’t been outside since September. He hasn’t had sun on his skin. It’s sort of like sensory deprivation.”
The attorney added that Sean Combs spends most of his time thinking and writing, describing the activity as “trying to pass the time productively.”

In addition to sharing Diddy’s experience in jail, Agnifilo spoke to Variety about the 62-page motion filed by him and others seeking an acquittal or retrial of the two guilty charges of transporting prostitutes under the Mann Act. According to Marc:
“Sean Combs has basically been convicted for using the services of a sex worker, and that’s just not really prosecuted anymore. The Mann Act is not supposed to be applied to the user of prostitution services. … It’s supposed to be used for people who make money from the business of prostitution,” Agnifilo told Variety.
When questioned if he was working toward Diddy getting a presidential pardon, the attorney replied that he wasn’t working in that direction and didn’t think much of it.
“I am not involved in that in the least. I have literally no idea. There are times I think there’s nothing to it, and there are times I think it’s just rumor mill stuff. But, I do not purport to know the president’s mind. I really don’t know.”
Marc also shut down the claims that Diddy’s trial was not fair. He said the judge who presided over the trial was fair and did an outstanding job.
“Yes. I think Judge Subramanian is a very fair judge, and he worked remarkably hard to give us as fair a trial as possible. This trial wasn’t perfect, because none is. But the judge did an outstanding job in being thoughtful, being careful, giving a lot of time to the parties.”
He added:
“I can’t say enough good things about our judge. He’s a terrific person. And while no trial is perfect, just like no lawyer is perfect, I thought this one was pretty close.”
Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ trial will continue on October 3, 2025, when he will receive his sentencing.
