Time for a midweek Diddy report. There’s more weirdness to relay.

As Diddy prepares to spend American Thanksgiving in a Brooklyn jail cell, stories keep coming out about his past behavior/activities. Let’s go through the latest.

Diddy wants bail, but…

…but prosecutors are against it because he’s shown a “pattern of violence.” They’re probably also concerned that he might try to tamper with/intimidate witnesses.

House arrest on a “private island?”

Yes. That’s one proposal from Diddy’s people.

He “threatened to kill” his staff.

Sounds like Diddy didn’t exactly follow HR rules with the people who worked for him. Along with physical abuse, he allegedly threatened to kill them. I don’t think that’s allowed under any labour code.

What will Diddy have for Thanksgiving dinner?

According to People, peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.

On the plus side for Diddy…

…streams of his music are increasing for some incomprehensible reason.

Why did so many people ignore his alleged crimes?

Yeah. Why did they? Let’s explore that.

Diddy tried to block a documentary from being released

Hulu has a new doc called The Honorable Shyne which looks at a nightclub shooting in the late 90s. Diddy tried to file a cease-and-desist order from jail. Nope. Didn’t work.

This pastor may have had a Diddy connection.

Heard the story about Bishop TD Jakes yet? It’s an interesting one.
