Sean “Diddy” Combs has been transferred from a low-security prison in New Jersey to a similar federal facility in Pennsylvania, Billboard can confirm.<\/p>\n
A spokesperson for the Federal Bureau of Prisons told Billboard that Combs was moved on Friday (Oct. 16) from FCI Fort Dix to FCI Allenwood’s low-security section. “For privacy, safety and security reasons, we do not discuss the conditions of confinement for any individual in our custody, including reasons for transfer,” said the prison rep.<\/p>\n

The Fort Dix prison in New Jersey and Allenwood facility in Pennsylvania are the same level of low-security institution. Combs’ rep did not immediately return a request for comment on Friday.<\/p>\n
Combs had been incarcerated at Fort Dix<\/a> since October 2025, shortly after he was sentenced<\/a> to four years in prison for arranging interstate prostitution events dubbed “freak-offs.” He spent a year before that at Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center, and this time will be credited toward his overall sentence.<\/p>\n The former music mogul has reportedly been involved in several fights<\/a> since arriving at Fort Dix and landed in solitary confinement<\/a> more than once. In September, a bombshell NBC News<\/a> investigation reported he had been living a “pampered” life at Fort Dix featuring contraband smartphones, Chinese-style massages and Hennessy cognac.<\/p>\n Combs is currently set to be released in March 2028, though the Bureau of Prison’s release schedule is a moving target<\/a>. He’s also asking an appeals court<\/a> to shorten the prison term for violations of federal prostitution laws, arguing that his sentencing judge unfairly disregarded a jury’s decision to acquit him of more serious racketeering and sex-trafficking charges.<\/p>\n Best of Billboard<\/p>\n Sign up for Billboard’s Newsletter<\/a>.
