The Los Angeles neighbors of Sean “Diddy” Combs, who is currently serving 50 months on prostitution-related charges, are reportedly worried about his potential return if a New York federal appeals court sides with the disgraced mogul and frees him ahead of his projected 2028 release date.
Those living in the Holmby Hills enclave — home to many A-listers, including movie director Ridley Scott, and a slew of tech bigwigs — along with realtors showing nearby homes, are concerned about the area’s tie to the Bad Boy Records founder, 56, insiders with direct knowledge told TMZ Friday.
Should Combs be freed and return to his L.A. home, neighbors fear he could, as TMZ put it, sow “the same chaos that led to [his] arrest.”

Snapchat cofounder Evan Spiegel and his Victoria’s Secret Angel wife Miranda Kerr also live in the tony ’hood, as does former Napster founder-turned-briefly Facebook president Sean Parker, as well as socialite Alexandra von Fürstenberg.
Combs’ home there is reportedly such a concern that realtors are warning interested buyers about it, lest they stay mum and ultimately get sued over failure to disclose.
News of the neighborhood’s handwringing comes a day after lawyers for Combs presented his case to the Second Circuit Court of Appeals, which is tasked with determining whether to overturn his July 2025 conviction and reducing his more than four-year sentence.
The legal team for Combs, who is serving 50 months at FCI Fort Dix in New Jersey, argues his sentence was influenced unjustly by the charges for which he was acquitted, namely, federal sex trafficking.
He was also tried at the time for racketeering.
Both charges could have resulted in a life sentence.
Currently, though, Combs — who was taken into custody in September 2024 — is slated for release on April 15, 2028.
Last month, the Bureau of Prisons’ inmate locator put the date at April 25, 2028, down from the prior June 4, 2028 release date.
