The Federal Bureau of Prisons now lists February 20, 2028, as Diddy’s release date, according to records. The new date reverses a short-lived move to January 24, 2028, adding 27 days to his prison stay.
The bureau has not explained either adjustment, and former warden Dr. DeWayne Hendrix cautioned against connecting the discipline to Diddy’s added time. The July confrontation began after another prisoner made a remark to Diddy, ABC News reported, citing an unnamed source. Witness accounts described shoving and punches before officers separated both inmates and moved Diddy into solitary confinement. Former MDC inmate Raymond Castillo later disputed that version and said he stopped an armed prisoner before the chair dispute became violent. Diddy is serving 50 months after jurors convicted him on two prostitution transportation counts while acquitting him of racketeering and sex trafficking. The Second Circuit has not ruled on Diddy’s pending appeal after hearing arguments over his conviction and sentence on April 9.
