Diddy's Ex Gina Huynh Pleads for His Release: 'He's Not a Danger to Anyone'
Sean 'Diddy' Combs may have just been blessed with a gift in his federal case. The woman known to the public as Virginia 'Gina' Huynh, once romantically linked to the embattled music mogul and legally identified as 'Victim-3' in the government's explosive indictment, has submitted a letter to the judge overseeing his case, vouching for Combs' character and advocating for his release on bail ahead of his October sentencing.
The letter, included in a submission from Combs' legal team on Sunday, directly challenges the prosecution's portrayal of Combs as a continuing threat, both to Huynh and the broader public. 'I am writing because I do not view Mr. Combs as a danger to me or to the community,' Huynh wrote, describing the Bad Boy Records founder as a changed man who, in her words, 'has not been violent for many years' and 'has been committed to being a father first.'
Government Alleges Diddy Used Coercion and Violence in Sex Trafficking Operation
Sean Combs is currently incarcerated and awaiting sentencing on two felony counts of transportation for prostitution, following a dramatic and highly publicized federal trial that has exposed a darker, long-suspected underside of his legacy. The government's indictment accused Combs of using 'force, threats of force, and coercion' to manipulate multiple women into commercial sex acts, often in exchange for money, career advancement, and housing.
Among those mentioned in the court filings were three women, unnamed but referred to as Victim-1, Victim-2, and Victim-3, with Victim-3 now confirmed to be Huynh.
Huynh Never Testified But Was Repeatedly Referenced During the Trial
Despite being a central figure in the charges, Huynh never took the stand during the trial. Her name surfaced multiple times during testimony, including in a striking account from Combs' former assistant George Kaplan, who alleged that he once witnessed Combs throwing apples at Huynh in his Miami residence.
Additionally, singer Casandra 'Cassie' Ventura, a key witness and former longtime girlfriend of Combs, testified that Combs had been unfaithful to her by continuing a relationship with Huynh during their time together, using Gina Huynh as an example of Combs' pattern of infidelity and exploitation.
In Her Letter, Huynh Describes Combs as Reformed and Nonviolent in Recent Years
Despite those troubling testimonies, Huynh's letter paints a more forgiving, if complicated, picture of her time with Combs. 'Our relationship, like many, was not always perfect, we experienced ups and downs, and mistakes were made,' she acknowledged, before noting that Combs ultimately 'was willing to acknowledge his mistakes and make better decisions in the future.'
'By the time our relationship ended,' she wrote, 'he embodied an energy of love, patience and gentleness that was markedly different from his past behavior.'
Her letter appears aimed at humanizing Combs during what could be the most consequential legal moment of his life. She emphasized his cooperation throughout the proceedings and the strong family ties she believes should qualify him for pre-sentencing release. 'He has substantial ties to his family and community, including children who depend on him for emotional and financial support,' Huynh wrote. 'Granting him bond would allow him to continue caring for his family and fulfilling his responsibilities while still subject to the Court's supervision.'
Diddy's Legal Team Cites Huynh's Support in Renewed Bail Request
The letter comes as part of Combs' legal team's renewed push to have him released before his sentencing on October 3. Prosecutors have resisted those efforts, citing the severity of the charges, the risk of flight, and a pattern of violent behavior.
But Combs' defense appears to be building a counter-narrative focused on rehabilitation and responsibility. They argue that this is Combs' first criminal case and that he has consistently complied with investigators, submitting to searches, interviews, and asset disclosures throughout the process.
Huynh's letter is perhaps the most unexpected component of this strategy, a direct rebuttal to the image of Combs as a chronic abuser of women, coming from a woman whom the federal government listed as one of his alleged victims.
Sean Combs' sentencing is scheduled for October 3 in federal court.
