On Instagram live on his way to prison, he gave an emotional farewell to his fans.
“I want to put this behind me and move forward,” he said in the video. “The comeback is always greater than the setback… The Situation will reveal himself in 2019. Currently under construction, but will be revealed. Under new management now. There is nothing more to say. Just take me to jail.”
