Attorney Mark Geragos expressed concerns about Sean Combs' safety after the rapper received a 50-month sentence on Friday, Oct. 3, for federal prostitution transportation convictions. Geragos told the TMZ podcast that inmates always face risks behind bars, but threats diminish at lower-security facilities. His daughter Teny Geragos serves on Combs' defense team for the case.
Defense attorney Brian Steel raised similar warnings at the sentencing hearing, and he claimed prisoners at Brooklyn's Metropolitan Detention Center targeted Combs for attacks. Steel told the court that Combs represents a trophy for inmates seeking recognition. The rapper completed one year in custody without reported incidents before receiving his sentence.
