Celebrity stylist Deonte Nash testified as the defense continued cross-examination in the sex trafficking trial against Sean “Diddy” Combs. Nash stated that Combs physically abused Cassie Ventura, threatening her career and reputation with recordings of their “freakoffs.” Nash detailed instances where Combs hit Cassie, pulled her hair, and slammed her head into a bed frame. He also mentioned that he had intervened multiple times.
During the trial, Combs’ ex-girlfriend Gina Huynh, known as Virginia V, claimed in a 2019 interview that Combs had stomped on her stomach and punched her in the head throughout their five-year relationship.
Speculations are rife about the reasons behind Victim-3’s reluctance to testify. It seems that she has had a change of heart and no longer wishes to take the stand. The unidentified woman, often referred to as “Gina,” has been a subject of discussion. Combs’ former assistant George Kaplan recently testified that he witnessed Combs throwing apples at Gina in his Miami residence.
Meanwhile, the defense raised concerns about limited access to Combs at the Metropolitan Detention Center. Another key witness, “Mia”—a pseudonym for Combs’ former assistant and alleged victim—is expected to testify through Friday.
