A second judge refused to grant bail to Sean “Diddy” Combs on Wednesday and he could remain in federal custody at a Brooklyn detention center until his trial for sex trafficking charges. Combs joins other high-profile inmates, such as singer R. Kelly, fallen cryptocurrency mogul Sam Bankman-Fried, rapper Ja Rule —even Al Sharpton served a brief stint— who were held at the same federal detention center.

Notorious for its horrible conditions —inmates won a $10 million class action settlement after enduring frigid conditions during an 8-day blackout in 2019— the waterfront industrial complex, MDC Brooklyn, houses 1,200 inmates. 

Violence and corruption have long plagued the facility; U.S. District Judge Gary R. Brown of the Eastern District of New York wrote the detention center had  “dangerous, barbaric conditions” in a recent sentencing opinion. Two inmates were stabbed to death in recent months and several correction officers have been convicted for smuggling contraband and accepting bribes.

Combs joins a list of high-profile personalities that have landed at the MDC Brooklyn, partly because the city’s other federal detention center, MDC New York, closed in 2021, also due to horrible conditions. The disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein died by suicide in his cell there in 2019. “Numerous and serious” instances of misconduct among corrections staff gave Epstein the opportunity to kill himself, a subsequent federal watchdog investigation found.

Kelly sued the federal detention center in 2022 for wrongly putting him on suicide watch after his sentencing. Kelly sought $100 million because he said the detention center knew he wasn’t suicidal after he was convicted in 2021 for racketeering and violating the Mann Act, which bars transporting people across state lines for prostitution.

Former crypto billionaire Bankman-Fried survived on bread, water and sometimes peanut butter when he was in the MDC Brooklyn, his attorney said, because the detention center continued to serve him a “flesh diet” despite requests for vegan dishes.

Ja Rule stayed at the MDC Brooklyn for a brief time before being released after serving most of his two-year sentence for illegal gun possession. Most of his prison time was spent in a state prison in New York. 

Sharpton served a 90-day sentence in 2001 and went on a hunger strike for protesting the U.S. Navy bombing of the island of Vieques, in Puerto Rico.

Combs was taken into custody on Monday and according to an indictment unsealed Tuesday he was charged with sex trafficking, racketeering conspiracy and transportation to engage in prostitution. 

His attorney Marc Agnifilo told CBS News, “It’s impossible to prepare for a trial from where he is,” after a first federal judge denied Combs bail on Tuesday.

U.S. Magistrate Judge Robyn Tarnofsky agreed with prosecutors who argued the hip-hop mogul, who is accused of using his business empire as a criminal enterprise to conceal his alleged abuse of women, is a flight risk and poses an ongoing threat to the safety of the community. 

Agnifilo said the part of the detention center where Combs is being held is “a very difficult place to be.”

The PlayStation 5 is one of the most powerful current-gen consoles on the market. It’s getting an upgrade later this year with the introduction of the PS5 Pro as well, just in time for the holidays. Whether you’re planning on buying a new PS5 or PS5 Pro for yourself or someone else, make sure you’re both kitted out with some of the best accessories you can get for the system. 

That can come in a variety of packages: a new PS5 wireless controller (or two!), a PS5 wireless headset, and even a  “Gran Turismo 7“-worthy racing wheel. You may even decide that you want to take the plunge and see what virtual reality has to offer, so take home a PSVR2 headset and jump into a brand new world. 

Whatever you’re doing with your PS5, make sure you’ve got plenty of games and the right gear to enjoy it with. You’ll get hours of enjoyment out of it this year and beyond – or at least until Sony decides to announce the next console on its slate. 

The best PS5 accessories

Sony PlayStation DualSense Wireless Controller

Sure, the PS5 console package comes complete with one wireless PS5 DualSense controller, but one controller is never enough. Buy an extra (or two!) for in-person, multiplayer action. Or, keep an extra (or two!) handy for when the original is broken following a display of old-fashioned gaming rage.

The DualSense Controller features remappable buttons, haptic feedback, adaptive triggers and a built-in microphone. It also includes a touch pad that you can use to control characters and menus in certain games. Choose the light color you want the controller to glow on your PlayStation. 

This controller is one of the most advanced Sony has released so far, with tension in the shoulder buttons that let you “feel” a jammed gun or the tension of a bow and arrow as you draw it back, ready to shoot. It’s always good to have a couple on hand, even for casual players. 

PlayStation DualSense Edge Wireless Controller

If you want the ultimate PS5 controller, you’ll get it with the DualSense Edge. It’s the priciest option you can get straight from Sony, and it’s got everything you need to customize your controller to make it feel like your own. With remappable inputs, custom settings and changeable analog stick caps, there are plenty of ways to tweak the DualSense Edge to fit the way you play.

In addition to all the ways you can customize the DualSense Edge, it has all the same features the DualSense controller has. This is just the best option available for anyone looking beyond picking up the basic PlayStation gamepad. You’ll have to part with a significant amount of money for it, but it’s worth it if you’re a hardcore player. 

Logitech G29 gaming racing wheel with pedals

The PS5-compatible Logitech G Dual-Motor Feedback Driving Force G29 racing wheel-style controller is a solid choice for racing games. While you could use a controller like the DualSense for these games instead, using a racing wheel just feels better. 

“The brake pedal has great feeling,” a verified reviewer raves. “It is just like a real car (albeit not a race car, but how many “normal” people would have the leg strength for that?)… You can very easily go hard braking from high speeds and slightly pull it back as the car slows down so the wheels don’t lock up.”

This wheel is a great option for games like “Gran Turismo 7” and the recently-released “Test Drive Unlimited: Solar Crown”. The wheel comes complete with a set of pedals, so you can feel more like you’re in control while out on the road. 

PlayStation VR2

For anyone with a PlayStation 5, the next logical step is jumping into the virtual realm with the PlayStation VR2. This latest version offers significant improvements over its predecessor and stands out as the only VR option for console gaming, compared to PC or standalone headsets.

The PSVR2 features dual 2000 x 2040 OLED displays, delivering 4K HDR visuals at up to 120fps. It also comes equipped with immersive 3D audio through built-in headphones, advanced eye tracking, and a vibrating headset that enhances the feeling of being inside your favorite games.

Additionally, the PlayStation VR2 Sense controllers have been upgraded with adaptive triggers, finger touch detection, and haptic feedback for precise tracking. With a vast library of games to explore, the PSVR2 offers a comprehensive and immersive virtual reality experience. 

PlayStation 5 Pulse 3D Wireless Headset

The PlayStation Pulse 3D Wireless Headset is official gear that won’t steer you wrong. Plus, it’s relatively affordable, with a price of $99.

Specifically fine-tuned for 3D audio on PS5 consoles, this headset’s overall goal is to give you the most immersive gaming experience possible. Its design prioritizes both form and function, as it features refined earpads and a headband strap to say comfy during lengthy game sessions. Plus, its sleek aesthetic matches the PS5 console’s design. It’s not heavy, ensuring less strain even during marathon sessions.

Of course, this headset is more than just a pretty face. It can help you communicate thanks to its hidden noise-cancelling microphones and easy-access controls for adjustments to audio and chat settings. (Note that for some chat features, an internet connection and a PlayStation Network account are necessary.)

With up to 12 hours of wireless play on its built-in rechargeable battery, you’re set for long adventures. Connecting is a breeze, whether to a PS5 or PS4, thanks to the wireless adapter. It works with PS5, PS4 and PC. It comes with a special cable for use with PS VR or mobile devices.

PlayStation Media Remote

Also from Sony, this remote allows you to stream Netflix, Disney+ and more from your PS5 with the touch of a button. It also makes powering up, powering off and adjusting the volume a breeze. It’s great for those who use their PlayStation as their primary media player. 

The advantages of only having to reach for a remote mean you don’t have to spring for an additional controller or a controller charging base. If you don’t plan on playing many games, you don’t have to worry about using a controller to interact with your system. 

Plus, this is an affordable pick at just $29, so you don’t have to part with too much cash to snag this remote. 

PlayStation DualSense Charging Station

If you end up getting an extra PS5 DualSense controller, then you’ll have two PS5 controllers to charge. No worries! This charging station from Sony can accommodate two PS5 controllers, so you can have a separate one ready to go when you need it

Plug in the device via the supplied AC adaptor, click your DualSense controllers into place, and – boom! – you’re on your way (and all without having to use one of your PS5’s precious USB ports).  

This can be a godsend since PS5 DualSense controllers can often run out of battery quickly in game that use their full capabilities. So when you can have something that makes it easy to have a fully-charged controller at the ready, it’s a good idea to grab it. 

PlayStation HD Camera

Take your PS5 gameplay broadcast to the next level with this PS5-compatible camera from Sony. It delivers 1080p, or full HD, picture quality. With a PlayStation Network account, you can activate the camera via a button on your PS5 DualSense controller.  

This is the most powerful webcam Sony has offered for a PlayStation 5 so far, so if you’re planning on sharing video of yourself via Discord or Twitch or you just feel like getting on video calls with friends, you’ll look crystal clear with some seriously great-looking gameplay.
