Sean \u201cDiddy\u201d Combs is expected to be released from federal prison earlier than expected in 2028. <\/p>\n
The disgraced music and alcohol mogul, 56, is now set to be released from FCI Fort Dix, a low-security federal prison in New Jersey, on Feb. 23, 2028, according to the Federal Bureau of Prisons inmate database. Combs was sentenced in October 2025 <\/a>to 50 months in prison after he was convicted of transporting prostitutes across state lines for drug-fueled sex performances known as \u201cfreak-offs.\u201d<\/p>\n The updated release date shaves off even more prison time for Combs, who was initially projected to be freed in June 2028. Earlier this year, the producer\u2019s release date was moved up to April 2028. <\/p>\n A legal representative for Combs did not immediately respond to a request for comment Tuesday. People<\/a> reported that Combs is participating in a drug-abuse rehabilitation program in the federal prison. The outlet also reported that the musician\u2019s legal team preferred Combs carry out his sentence at FCI Fort Dix because of its treatment program and proximity to his family. <\/p>\n Combs was sentenced last year after a lengthy and highly public legal saga involving damning allegations of sexual assault<\/a> and other violence. Singer Casandra \u201cCassie\u201d Ventura<\/a> and producer Rodney \u201cLil Rod\u201d Jones<\/a> were among the accusers who lodged civil complaints against Combs. Though he was found guilty in July<\/a> on two counts of a prostitution-related charge, jurors cleared Combs on racketeering and sex trafficking.<\/p>\n \u201cMr. Combs has been given his life by this jury,\u201d defense attorney Marc Agnifilo said at the time. <\/p>\n Earlier this month, the Los Angeles County district attorney\u2019s office said it was investigating two sexual assault cases <\/a>against the Bad Boy Records founder. A Florida music producer alleged last year that Combs sexually assaulted him in 2020 and 2021. When the claims first surfaced in 2025<\/a>, Combs\u2019 civil attorney dismissed them.<\/p>\n \u201cLet me make it absolutely clear, Mr. Combs categorically denies as false and defamatory all claims that he sexually abused anyone,\u201d attorney Jonathan Davis said at the time. \u201cHe looks forward to vindicating himself in court, where such matters are decided \u2014 and not in the media \u2014 based on admissible, material evidence, not rank speculation and unsubstantiated allegations.\u201d<\/p>\n Times staff writers James Queally and Richard Winton contributed to this report. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Sean \u201cDiddy\u201d Combs is expected to be released from federal prison earlier than expected in 2028.
