Diddy's prison release date shifted again to February 20, 2028
Sean 'Diddy' Combs is a very famous music star who is in prison.
He was found guilty of a crime related to paying for adult services, which is against the law.
A judge gave him a 50-month sentence, which is a little more than four years.
He was also accused of more serious crimes, but a court found him not guilty of those.
His release date has been changed many times.
Now the prison says he will be released on February 20, 2028.
The latest change came after a problem between him and another person in the prison.
Reports don't agree on what happened — some say it was mostly yelling, while others say there was a physical fight.
He was reportedly placed in solitary confinement, but the prison has not explained.
The exact reason for the date changes has not been shared.
Sean 'Diddy' Combs is now scheduled for release from New Jersey's FCI Fort Dix on Feb. 20, 2028, after yet another change to his release date.
Reports conflict on the previous date: one says it was pushed back from a January 2028 exit, while another says it was moved up from Feb. 23, 2028.
He is serving a 50-month sentence for two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution, and was acquitted of racketeering and sex trafficking.
The change follows an incident with another inmate in July that TMZ reported as a physical altercation; other sources described it as mainly verbal.
Combs' $100 million defamation suit against NBCUniversal over the documentary 'Diddy: The Making of a Bad Boy' was tossed out this spring, and he faces more than 65 lawsuits.
