CELL SCHOOLING
SEAN "Diddy" Combs has spent part of the past year teaching fellow inmates business management and entrepreneurship.
The rapper and producer, 55, convicted in July on two felony prostitution charges, faces sentencing on Friday in Manhattan, and it has now emerged he spent time behind bars teaching a self-devised course titled "Free Game With Diddy".
It has emerged in documents submitted to the court ahead of his sentencing, with Combs' lawyers saying they have provided Judge Arun Subramanian with material they argue demonstrates the rapper's positive influence while in custody.
They provided a course description, inmate testimonials and an evaluation from a unit counsellor that rated the programme "excellent", according to Rolling Stone.
