Sean “Diddy” Combs will be released from prison earlier than expected, with his new date set for April 25, 2028 about six weeks ahead of the original June 4 release.
The change comes after his acceptance into a federal drug‑abuse rehabilitation program, which can shorten sentences for inmates who complete it.
His representatives have emphasized that he has taken the program seriously, remaining focused on growth and rehabilitation.
This adjustment follows previous changes to his sentence. In November 2025, his release date was pushed back after reports that he violated prison rules, including consuming homemade alcohol and participating in a prohibited three‑way phone call.
His team defended the phone call as protected under attorney‑client privilege, but prison officials disagreed.
Despite these setbacks, Combs has continued to pursue an appeal of his four‑year sentence, arguing that prosecutors failed to prove their case and that the judge imposed an unconstitutionally harsh punishment.
Combs has been incarcerated since September 2024 after being convicted on two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution, though he was acquitted of other charges including racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking.
His legal team is seeking either a reversal of the conviction or a reduced sentence, while prosecutors have opposed the appeal.
The early release date reflects his progress in rehabilitation but does not resolve the broader legal battle he is still fighting.
