New York, NY – Virginia “Gina” Huynh, the former girlfriend of Sean “Diddy” Combs, has publicly voiced her support for the music mogul’s release from prison while he awaits sentencing on charges of sex trafficking, racketeering conspiracy, and transportation to engage in prostitution. The move comes as Diddy’s legal team continues to petition for his release.
Huynh, 33, who dated Diddy on-and-off from 2014 to 2019, submitted a letter to Judge Arun Subramanian on Sunday, August 3, requesting his release on bond. The letter states that “the Court permit his [Diddy’s] release on bond while the case proceeds” and asserts she does not view him as a danger to her or the community, noting this is his first criminal case.
Huynh initially served as “Victim-3” in the prosecution’s case, having mysteriously dropped out days before the trial began. During the trial, a former assistant testified that Diddy once “throwing apples at Huynh at his home in Miami,” a claim Diddy’s legal team deems “untested.”
In her letter, Huynh described their relationship, acknowledging “ups and downs and mistakes were made but he was willing to acknowledge his mistakes and make better decisions in the future.” She stated that by the end of their time together, Diddy “embodied an energy of love, patience and gentleness” and that “to my knowledge, he has not been violent for many years, and he has been committed to being a father first.”
Prosecutors responded to Diddy’s most recent bail request, arguing that his detention pending sentencing is mandatory, and there are no exceptional circumstances justifying his release. They also assert he cannot demonstrate he is not a danger to the community.
Diddy is currently being held at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn. Legal representatives, including Marc Agnifilo, have maintained that the charges are “unjust” and that Diddy has been “cooperative” with the investigation.
The case continues to develop with no immediate ruling on Diddy’s latest bail request.
