Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ Ex Claims He’s ‘Not a Danger,’ But Other Victims Are Allegedly Scared
The trial of hip-hop mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs came to a dramatic close as the judge denied his request for bail, citing concerns over flight risk and the serious nature of the charges. The decision came after weeks of testimony and mounting evidence that painted a complex picture of the music mogul’s alleged involvement in a web of criminal activity. His legal team argued for leniency and assurances that he would remain in the country. However, the court ultimately sided with prosecutors. Now, one of Combs’ exes is stating that she doesn’t believe Combs is a danger to her or others. Here’s what she said about supporting his bond release.
Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ ex, formerly known as ‘Victim-3,’ wrote a letter to the judge
Sean “Diddy” Combs was convicted on two counts of violating the federal Mann Act, specifically, transporting individuals across state lines for prostitution, by arranging for both former girlfriends and male sex workers to travel for filmed sexual encounters. He was acquitted of racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking charges. These charges carried the possibility of life in prison.
Although a jury initially anticipated a sentence of four to five years under federal guidelines, prosecutors now argue that the sentencing range will be substantially higher. They cited aggravating factors, like his documented history of violence and witness concerns, as reasons. Combs’ legal team counters that the proper guideline range should be 21 to 27 months. They asserted that his actions were part of a consensual lifestyle rather than a criminal enterprise.
Now, Combs’ ex, Virginia “Gina” Huynh, believes Combs shouldn’t have to stay behind bars ahead of sentencing. Huynh was originally referred to as “Victim-3” in the case before she mysteriously dropped out before testifying against him. Combs’ defense recently included a letter to Judge Arun Subramanian from Huynh. In it, she claims to believe “the Court” should “permit [Combs’] release on bond while the case proceeds,” according to Us Weekly.
Huynh’s letter follows a motion submitted by Combs’ defense team. The letter requested that he be released on bail ahead of sentencing on Oct. 3, 2025.
Gina Huynh says the mogul doesn’t pose a threat to society
Sean “Diddy” Combs’ ex, Gina Huynh, never testified at trial as Victim-3. And authorities could not locate her in time to appear in court. Despite having been identified in the charges related to sex trafficking and transportation for prostitution, she did not take the stand and remained absent during witness testimony. In a surprising turn, her letter to the judge states that she knows Combs “was not always perfect.” However, “he was willing to acknowledge his mistakes and make better decisions in the future,” according to CNN.
She went on to explain why she doesn’t believe Combs poses a threat to others.
“By the time our relationship ended, he embodied an energy of love, patience, and gentleness that was markedly different from his past behavior,” she continued in her letter. “To my knowledge, he has not been violent for many years, and he has been committed to being a father first. I am writing because I do not view Mr. Combs as a danger to me or to the community.”
Aubrey O’Day of ‘Making the Band’ fame says Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ victims called her in fear
Aubrey O’Day continues to advocate for Sean “Diddy” Combs’ alleged victims. While speaking on Amy Robach and T.J. Holmes Present: Aubrey O’Day, Covering the Diddy Trial, she explained how those affected by Combs’ actions called her in fear after the verdict. This, of course, doesn’t align with Gina Huynh’s views.
“Do you know how many victims called me today, Elizabeth, and said, ‘I’m scared. I’m trying to get somewhere right now,'” O’Day said to CNN’s Elizabeth Wagmeister. “I wasn’t feeling scared to go home, but they were like, ‘I got a call from somebody up high in the industry, and he was like, I wouldn’t post in real time where you are for a while. Don’t post your home. Don’t post where you’re actually at — post it, like, two or three days later.’ That’s the kind of conversations people are having right now.”
