Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ Prison Release Date Pushed Back After He Was Allegedly Caught Drinking Alcohol

Sean “Diddy” Combs may be spending a little bit more time behind bars.

The disgraced rapper was transferred from the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, New York, on October 30 to the Federal Correctional Institution in Fort Dix, New Jersey (FCI Fort Dix) — where he is now anticipated to remain until June 4, 2028, Page Six reported on Wednesday, November 12.

According to the outlet, the 56-year-old was originally scheduled to be released on May 8, 2028. No reason has been given as to why the release date was extended by approximately one month.

However, as the National Enquirer previously reported, Combs allegedly indulged in “homemade alcohol” made from Fanta soda, sugar and apples (the concoction was said to be fermented for approximately two weeks).

Just days after his November 4 birthday, TMZ sources claimed the music mogul was caught by jail officials consuming the substance.

Spokesperson Juda Engelmayer seemed to deny the report, telling the outlet, “Mr. Combs is in his first week at FCI Fort Dix and is focused on adjusting, working on himself, and doing better each day. As with any high-profile individual in a new environment, there will be many rumors and exaggerated stories throughout his time there — most of them untrue.” (His family also released a statement on his official X account saying that the rumors were “completely false.”)

CBS News then reported that Diddy was facing disciplinary action for an unauthorized three-person phone call. However, Combs allegedly explained that he was speaking with his attorney and she added someone from legal communications, as he was discussing issuing a statement to The New York Times.

During his trial, Combs — who pleaded not guilty to the sex-related felonies — was found not guilty of racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking, but guilty on two counts of transportation for the purposes of prostitution.

He was sentenced to 50 months (or more than four years) in prison.

Shortly after his sentencing, a source exclusively told the Enquirer that Combs was in “total shock,” adding: “He really believed he’d get out with time served, his lawyers promised.”
