NEW YORK — Justin Volpe, the NYPD officer convicted of sodomizing Abner Louima with a broomstick in 1997 has been released early from federal prison, according to authorities.

The disgraced cop, who pleaded guilty in 1999 while on trial, finishes his 25-year sentence on Jan. 10, 2024, but was allowed to go home early.

The federal Bureau of Prisons website lists Volpe as being part of a Residential Reentry Management program, which places inmates in halfway houses or allows them to return home to finish out their sentences.
