Reps for the federal Bureau of Prisons were unavailable for comment, citing the government shutdown.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tOnce one of the music industry\u2019s most powerful figures, Combs was arrested and charged in September 2024 with racketeering (RICO) and sex trafficking violations. Prosecutors said he ran a sprawling criminal operation aimed at facilitating \u201cfreak-offs\u201d \u2014 elaborate events which he allegedly forced ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura and other women to have sex with male escorts while he watched and masturbated.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tFollowing a blockbuster trial this spring, jurors <a href=\"https:\/\/www.billboard.com\/pro\/diddy-verdict-not-guilty-sex-trafficking-racketeering\/\">issued a verdict<\/a> clearing Combs on the RICO and sex trafficking charges that could have seen him sentenced to prison for life. But he was still convicted on two lesser counts for transporting Ventura and others across state lines for the purposes of prostitution.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tAt a sentencing hearing earlier this month, Judge Arun Subramanian sentenced him to 50 months in prison on those convictions. That was far less than the 11 years sought by prosecutors, but well more than the 14 months his lawyers had asked for. Counting his year of time-served credit, that sentence would seemingly have seen the star released at some point in September or October 2028.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tRegardless of BOP estimates, Diddy\u2019s release date could change dramatically if he wins his appeal, which he launched last week at the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. His lawyers will challenge not only the length of his sentence, but also his underlying convictions themselves.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tIf such arguments are successful \u2013 read what Diddy\u2019s lawyers <a href=\"https:\/\/www.billboard.com\/pro\/diddy-appeals-prostitution-conviction-prison-sentence\/\">might argue here<\/a> \u2013 he could get out even earlier than May 2028. But the appeals process is often slow, and Combs will likely serve a sizeable chunk of his prison term before the case is even decided.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tThat is, unless he\u2019s pardoned or commuted by President Donald Trump \u2013 the other big factor could significantly change his release timeline. Though Trump confirmed that Diddy\u2019s team <a href=\"https:\/\/www.billboard.com\/music\/music-news\/donald-trump-confirms-sean-diddy-combs-asked-pardon-1236083280\/\">reached out to the administration<\/a> about such an edict, the White House has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.billboard.com\/music\/music-news\/white-house-shuts-down-report-trump-commute-diddy-sentence-1236094031\/\">publicly denied<\/a> that it is considering clemency for the convicted mogul.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ubpass.co\/billboard\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\"><br \/>\n  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/2HpFicp.png\" alt=\"Billboard VIP Pass\" style=\"max-width: 100%;height: auto\"><br \/>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.billboard.com\/pro\/diddy-prison-release-date-revealed-how-soon-set-free\/\">Aller \u00e0 la source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Weeks after Sean \u201cDiddy\u201d Combs was sentenced to over four years in prison on prostitution convictions following a sweeping sexual abuse case, inmate records posted by the federal Bureau of Prisons show that Diddy, 55, is now expected to be set free on May 8, 2028.
