Tonight’s Instagram Live was one for the books.
I sat down with Gene Borrello— a former enforcer for the Bonanno crime family turned federal witness — and we went deep. From the charges against Sean “Diddy” Combs to the gritty reality of federal prison, Gene pulled no punches. He’s lived it. And whether you love him, hate him, or just want to understand the justice system from someone who’s been chewed up and spit out by it, you’ll want to hear what he had to say.
Diddy is facing some of the most serious charges a public figure can be hit with: federal sex trafficking, racketeering, and coercion. But beyond the headlines and the media spin, what does it actually mean when the feds come for you? What does a trial like his really look like? How does someone that famous survive inside?
That’s where Gene comes in.
He’s done time. He’s stood trial. He’s seen celebrities walk into prison, and he’s seen how fast that spotlight fades behind concrete and steel. In this interview, Gene offers raw, unfiltered insight into what Diddy could be walking into — from courtroom dynamics to prison politics, and why someone like him may or may not get “special treatment.”
Here’s just some of what we unpacked:
🔹 What Diddy’s trial might look like behind closed doors
🔹 Whether celebrities actually get better treatment — or just a bigger target on their back
🔹 The difference between mob cases and celebrity takedowns
🔹 Why the code of silence is dying — and how cooperation became the new loyalty
🔹 What happens when the feds really want to bury someone
🔹 How a “target letter” turns into a courtroom circus
🔹 Why prison life for famous defendants is nothing like the movies
🔹 The quiet psychological warfare happening behind bars
Gene didn’t glamorize any of it. He told it like it is — and in today’s world of curated headlines and fake tough guys, that’s rare.
Whether you’re following Diddy’s case, fascinated by organized crime, or just want an insider view of how the U.S. justice system really operates — this is a conversation you don’t want to miss.
