Overview
- The Bureau of Prisons' online registry now lists Sean 'Diddy' Combs with a projected release date of February 23, 2028, a change recorded in public records this week.
- Combs was convicted in July 2025 on two counts of transporting persons for prostitution and was sentenced to 50 months in prison and a $500,000 fine in October 2025.
- The projected release date has been adjusted several times since his sentencing, shifting from earlier 2028 dates reported by the BOP and media outlets.
- Media reports have described alleged in-prison rule breaches, including a homemade fermented drink and an unauthorized call, but Combs' representatives have disputed those accounts and the BOP declined to explain the date change.
- Federal release dates can move for specific reasons such as credited time served before sentencing, good-conduct credits, participation in approved programs, or provisions under the First Step Act, and Combs' lawyers are continuing appeals that could affect legal outcomes.
