Combs’s projected release date moves to January 21, 2028

Published 30 September 2026

Federal Bureau of Prisons records list Sean Combs’s projected release from Fort Dix as January 21, 2028, 15 days earlier than the February 5 date reported earlier this month. The records do not explain the latest adjustment. Separately, accounts from four former inmates, as reported by NBC News, allege that Combs has received unusual services and access to prohibited items while serving his sentence. Those allegations have not been independently established in the available reporting. The former inmates said other prisoners cooked and prepared special meals for Combs, cleaned his living area, made his bed and did his laundry. They alleged that people outside the prison transferred money to the commissary accounts of inmates who performed tasks for him. Some accounts also described massages and inmates holding his phone and fan mail. These claims are based principally on anonymous interviews and should not be treated as verified prison findings. Footage reviewed by NBC News appeared to show Combs using a cellphone inside the New Jersey prison.
