Diddy Gains New Prison Release Date After Fort Dix Transfer
Originally published by AllHipHop Read the original
Diddy moved closer to leaving federal prison in Pennsylvania after his projected release date advanced more than three weeks with no publicly disclosed explanation.
Sean “Diddy” Combs is now scheduled for release Feb. 6, 2028, compared with the March 2, 2028, date reported last month. TMZ reported the change Monday, citing the Federal Bureau of Prisons. AllHipHop has subsequently verified the new date.
The adjustment moves his anticipated release forward 25 days. It follows his transfer from FCI Fort Dix in New Jersey to FCI Allenwood Low in Pennsylvania’s Fort Dix. The embattled mogul was allegedly involved in a fracas with another inmate as well as other controversies dealing with jailhouse contraband.

The reason for the new date has not been established.
Earlier projected release dates included Jan. 21, Feb. 5 and Feb. 20, 2028. The newest date therefore brings his anticipated departure closer than last month’s March projection.
A projected release date also remains subject to revision as well.
The Bureau of Prisons explains on its inmate locator website that federal sentences are being reviewed and recalculated for pending time credit changes. The agency advises visitors to check periodically because listed release dates may change. That general guidance does not establish what prompted Combs’ latest adjustment.
His time at Fort Dix attracted attention following allegations about contraband phones and preferential treatment. NBC News reported that Combs paid other inmates for massages, meal preparation and chores, according to the supplied article.
Those reports provide context for the scrutiny surrounding his incarceration. They do not, by themselves, explain the new release projection or establish why prison officials moved him to Pennsylvania.
Combs is serving a 50-month federal sentence following his 2025 jury conviction on two counts of transporting people across state lines for prostitution under the Mann Act. The jury acquitted him of racketeering and sex trafficking charges.
