Diddy’s Release Date: When Is It? And Why Does It Keep Changing?
The disgraced mogul is serving a 50-month sentence in federal prison, but it's not that simple. Here's why.
Attorney Sean "Diddy" Combs is serving a 50-month sentence at a federal corrections facility in New Jersey after being convicted in 2025 on prostitution-related charges. Inmates can sometimes serve less than the full term if they have time served prior to sentencing and have participated in the Residential Drug Abuse Program, which can shave time off their sentences.
Diddy has also enrolled in this program and potentially served the last few months at a halfway house. The Bureau of Prisons provides estimated release dates for inmates based on their projected release date, but these are not binding. Diddy's projected release date has changed several times over the past year, and it remains unclear what factors contribute to these changes, though it might be due to his appeal process.
