— NewsNation (@NewsNation) December 20, 2024The decision to house both individuals in Brooklyn’s federal prison was strategic, not coincidental. This facility is nearest to the federal court in Manhattan, where Combs and Mangione are required to attend hearings. The court has denied Combs bail three times, and Mangione is unlikely to receive bail if confirmed as the perpetrator.
