Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs Spotted in Prison 4 Months Post Sex Crimes Conviction
Sean “Diddy” Combs has made headlines recently after being sighted in prison four months following his conviction for sex crimes. He was photographed at the Federal Correctional Institution (FCI) Fort Dix in New Jersey, where he began serving the remainder of his 50-month sentence.
Sean Combs’ Prison Transfer
On October 30, 2024, the music mogul was transferred to FCI Fort Dix, where he is set to complete his sentence. A photo of Combs taken in the prison yard shows him wearing a blue jacket and a beanie, with a visible white beard.
Prison Life and Menu
Combs is residing in a dormitory-style unit and is reportedly facing a much simpler meal plan than what he is accustomed to. The breakfast menu includes:
- Fruit
- Hot oatmeal
- Whole wheat bread and jelly
- Coffee and skim milk
Breakfast is served at 6:00 a.m. Following breakfast, meals include:
- Lunch: Chicken fajitas, cilantro rice, black beans, whole kernel corn, fruit beverage
- Dinner: Roast beef or lentils, mashed potatoes, mixed vegetables with brown gravy, whole wheat bread, margarine, and a beverage
Details of Conviction
In July 2024, Combs was convicted on two counts of transportation for prostitution. He faced more serious charges, including sex trafficking and racketeering, which could have led to a life sentence. Prosecutors sought a harsher penalty of 11 years, citing concerns about his lack of remorse.
Legal Proceedings and Future
Combs’ defense team requested a maximum sentence of 14 months. They have also initiated an appeal against the conviction as of October 20, 2024. According to the Federal Bureau of Prisons, Combs is slated for release on May 8, 2028. However, he may qualify for early release for good behavior, which could adjust his release date.
Combs has been incarcerated since his arrest on September 16, 2024, following events linked to his legal troubles. His transition from a facility where he conducted a business class to prison life represents a significant change in his daily routine.
