Maduro jailed at New York detention center that held Diddy, Ghislaine Maxwell and Sam Bankman-Fried

"Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro will be behind bars at the same prison where Diddy and Ghislaine Maxwell, as well as other high-profile defendants were all housed while they awaited trial. A source told Fox News that Maduro will be detained at Metropolitan Detention Center, Brooklyn, after the Venezuelan leader was captured in a "fortress"-like house during an early-morning operation by U.S. forces in the South American country."

"Maduro was charged with narco-terrorism conspiracy, cocaine importation conspiracy, possession of machine guns and destructive devices and conspiracy to possess machine guns and destructive devices against the U.S. The indictment also lists his wife and son as defendants. MDC Brooklyn also held other high-profile inmates like Ghislaine Maxwell, Sam Bankman Fried and Michael Cohen as they awaited trial. Notably, Maduro will be housed at MDC Brooklyn at the same time as Luigi Mangione, who is awaiting trial after he allegedly assassinated UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson."

"Judi Garrett, former assistant director at the Federal Bureau of Prisons, told Fox News Digital she expects Maduro to be held within a Special Housing Unit when he arrives at MDC Brooklyn. "I would expect [Maduro] would be held in [a Special Housing Unit] at the outset and then moved into one of the "special" units where other high profile individuals have been held," Garrett said. Garrett said MDC Brooklyn has "substantial experience with high profile defendants.""

Nicolas Maduro will be detained at the Metropolitan Detention Center (MDC) in Brooklyn following his capture in a "fortress"-like house during an early-morning U.S. operation. He faces charges including narco-terrorism conspiracy, cocaine importation conspiracy, possession of machine guns and destructive devices, and related conspiracy counts; the indictment also names his wife and son. MDC Brooklyn previously housed high-profile inmates such as Ghislaine Maxwell, Sam Bankman-Fried, Michael Cohen, and Diddy. Officials expect Maduro to begin in a Special Housing Unit and then be moved to one of the facility's special units for high-profile defendants. He will be housed concurrently with Luigi Mangione.
