Story summary

In January 2026, Corrections Officer Pensak at the low-security Burlington County facility in New Jersey pleaded guilty to sexually abusing an inmate. She admitted to exchanging sexually explicit photos and messages with him through social media and electronic applications. The inmate allegedly used two contraband cellphones during their interactions. Pensak discussed her relationship with members of the inmate’s family and even expressed concern about potentially being pregnant with his child, according to prosecutors. Sentencing is scheduled for February 10, 2027, carrying a maximum penalty of 15 years in prison and a $250,000 fine. This incident occurred while Sean 'Diddy' Combs, serving a 50-month sentence at the same facility since December 2022 for weapons possession charges, was also incarcerated there. Combs’ representative previously told Page Six that he was abiding by prison rules and awaiting his appeal’s outcome, but this scandal highlights ongoing issues of misconduct within Fort Dix.
