    MDC, which houses 1,600 inmates — many of whom are awaiting trial — is known for being dangerous and understaffed, with a high number of deaths and suicides. In their motion for Combs to be granted bail, his attorneys wrote that “several courts in this District have recognized that the conditions at Metropolitan Detention Center are not fit for pre-trial detention,"

    “Just earlier this summer, an inmate was murdered,” the legal team added. “At least four inmates have died by suicide there in the past three years.”

    Retribution? His lawyers argued in a high-profile case that the facts demonstrate incompetence at keeping people alive while imprisoned. There is a shithead angle that could be like:

    “Oh, so your lawyers pointed out how much we suck at keeping people alive? Time for the padded cell. That was your concern after all, we’ve addressed it.
