Gina Huynh wrote a letter to the judge in defense of Sean “Diddy” Combs, ahead of his sentencing hearing later on today.
In a heartfelt letter, Huynh says she did everything authorities asked of her, sitting down with them three separate times, answering every question, and even handing over her texts messages, videos, and photographs. But now she claims prosecutors twisted her story, pushing her to cooperate as a so-called trafficking victim against her will.
“During those meetings, I felt pressured to feel like a victim. I told them I was not, but they insisted that I was,” Huynh wrote, insisting that the government built a false narrative without her consent. “I was not trafficked. I did not engage in prostitution with him or others.”
Although she was subpoenaed, Huynh says she was deliberately kept off NAIJAONPOINT list after prosecutors realized her testimony would unravel their case. “They lost touch with me before the trial,” she explained, suggesting it was easier for them to keep her quiet than to risk her taking the stand.
She pleaded with the court for leniency. “I pleaded with the judge to release him,” she wrote.
