Who is Christopher ‘Dudus’ Coke? Diddy injured in prison fight with Jamaican drug lord

Diddy got into a fight with Jamaican drug lord Christopher Coke or Dudus, and hurt his head, prompting prison officials to move him out for treatment.

Who is Christopher ‘Dudus’ Coke? Diddy injured in prison fight with Jamaican drug lord

Christopher Coke, also known as Dudus, is a notorious Jamaican drug lord who was sentenced to 23 years in prison in 2012. He is currently incarcerated at Fort Dix and was recently involved in a prison fight with Diddy, or Sean Combs, a famous rapper. The fight occurred due to Diddy allegedly getting other inmates into trouble. As a result of the altercation, both men were placed in solitary confinement for two weeks.

Dudus is believed to be the real kingpin in the prison, despite Diddy being the biggest celebrity there. The fight has led to at least two raids at Fort Dix and the confiscation of inmates' cell phones. Coca's crime spree began when he headed the Shower Posse or Presidential Click, a criminal organization in Jamaica. He was extradited before his sentencing, which sparked a civil war in the country that resulted in over 70 deaths.

Coke was popular among the West Kingston slums of Jamaica due to the money he distributed, allegedly from his international drug operation. He was involved in a peace agreement with the Jamaican government in 2010 but was later arrested and sentenced to four years of supervised release and a $1.5 million forfeiture.
