Sean "Diddy" Combs is officially starting his federal prison sentence.
Law enforcement sources said the 55-year-old was transferred to FCI Fort Dix, a low-security facility in New Jersey, on Thursday morning (Oct. 30), per TMZ.
Earlier this month, the mogul asked to serve his 50 month sentence at the facility, and the request was granted by the Federal Bureau of Prisons.
Diddy’s legal team previously explained that Fort Dix is his ideal location because it allows him to “address drug abuse issues” and “maximize family visitation and rehabilitative efforts.”
His longtime lawyer, Mark Geragos, previously told TMZ’s Harvey Levin on the 2 Angry Men podcast that Diddy "will have a target on his back wherever he ends up" and that threats of sexual and other violent assaults are real.
At his sentencing hearing, Diddy's team revealed that someone had already planned to shank him, and a close friend said he once woke up to a knife pressed against his neck.
Diddy is moving on from spending over a year at MDC Brooklyn, and the Bureau of Prisons currently projects his release date to be May 8, 2028, though that date isn't guaranteed.
Last week, TMZ reported that President Donald Trump was considering commuting Diddy’s sentence. A high-ranking White House official source reportedly told the outlet that the president was supposedly “vacillating” on the decision, noting that “Trump will do what he wants.”
After The White House later denied the report, TMZ doubled down, writing, “The White House Communications Office is saying our story is not true. We stand by our story. Our story is accurate.”
