#Socialites, get into this: Diddy will soon learn his fate this Friday but ahead of his sentencing, he’s seeing a lot of support… a huge flip from when he was originally arrested on racketeering and sex trafficking charges.
From his kids to friends, and former partners, the support just keeps rolling in. Interestingly enough, ‘Victim 3’ Virginia Huynh, who testified, has now switched her tune and is offering her support. She wrote in her letter,
“Dear Judge Subramanian,
I know you are sentencing Sean Combs on Friday, and I have been thinking a lot about it. I saw in the press letters were submitted by many concerning the sentencing.No one asked me or told me to write this letter but I felt my voice should be heard as I as identified as Victim 3 in this case, and I understand charges that were broug oncerning me, including accusations of sex trafficking and prostitution
I cooperated fully with prosecutors. I met with them three times, answered their questions, and gave them all the information and evidence I had, including pictures, videos, and text messages from my phone.”
She went on to say,
“During those meetings, I felt pressured to feel like a victim. I told them I was not but they insisted that I was, even when I expressed my truth otherwise. I understand they concluded that I had been sex trafficked and involved in “forced prostitution.”
I did not agree with that conclusion. I was not trafficked. I did not engage in prostitution with him or others. That would have been my testimony if called to the stand. I was subpoenaed and fully prepared to testify and answer all questions truthfully. But I was informed by my lawyer that I would not be called to take the stand.”
She concluded,
“I want to emphasize that I understand the seriousness of this case and the pain others may feel. I cannot speak for anyone but myself. In terms of sentencing, I kindly ask that you consider releasing him back to his family. I understand throughout the process he has been cooperative and respectful, including turning himself in.
Throughout this process he has never once reached out to me or made me feel uncomfortable in any way. I believe he will continue to be compliant with the Court’s conditions upon release. I understand that accountability is important and I am not writing this to dismiss the gravity of the charges, nor to criticize anyone. I write to express my perspective as a so-called victim. I write to express how I felt during the investigation and trial, and how I feel now waiting to hear the sentence. I felt compelled to share my own perspective honestly. I respectfully ask that you take my words into consideration when making your decision. Thank you for your time and for allowing me to be heard.”
This is not a first time Gina has sent a letter to a judge. Not too long ago she did so, writing ahead of Diddy’s bail hearing.
Virginia’s words hit heavy, especially with her saying prosecutors pressured her to “feel like a victim” even when she claimed otherwise. It’s a major curveball ahead of sentencing, given that she was once seen as a central piece in the government’s case.
With the judge set to deliver Diddy’s sentence this Friday, the courtroom is shaping up to be nothing short of explosive. Between support from family, friends, and even one of the so-called victims, this case has taken a turn no one really expected.
