Sean "Diddy" Combs' projected prison release date has been postponed from January 21 to March 2, 2028, according to Bureau of Prisons records.

Combs was reportedly placed in solitary confinement after these allegations. The Bureau of Prisons has not publicly confirmed reasons for the release date change. Separately, Combs was ordered to pay nearly $478,000 in legal fees related to a dismissed defamation lawsuit.
