Sean “Diddy” Combs release date advanced to Jan 24 2028 after prison fight
Sean “Diddy” Combs is serving a 50‑month federal sentence after being convicted in October 2025 on two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution. He is incarcerated at the Federal Correctional Institution Fort Dix in New Jersey. The Federal Bureau of Prisons’ inmate locator now lists his projected release as 24 January 2028, moving the date up by about one month from the previously posted 23 February 2028. This is the latest in a series of adjustments that have shifted his release from an original May 8 2028 target to June 4 2028, then to April 25 2028, and most recently to February 23 2028 before the current change. The latest shift follows a reported altercation with another inmate at Fort Dix, after which Combs was placed in solitary confinement (special‑housing unit). Prison officials declined to comment on the disciplinary matter. The Bureau of Prisons notes that early releases are typically granted for earned good‑conduct credits and participation in approved programs; Combs is enrolled in the Residential Drug Abuse Program (RDAP), which can reduce sentence time. No official reason for the specific date change was given, and the adjustment is treated as a routine credit calculation.
