As if Sean “Diddy” Combs doesn’t have enough to worry about, a few folks are volunteering to testify against the music maven should the current investigation result in an indictment and trial.
According to News Nation, Natania Reuben is willing to have doctors remove one or more imbedded bullet fragments from her face to prove in court that Combs — who was once called “Puffy” and “Puff Daddy” — shot her, not the rapper Moses “Shyne” Barrow.

“I’m willing to have a doctor remove a part of the nine-millimeter bullet in my face so that they can use it as evidence if need be for this trial — and it may cost me my life,” Reuben told News Nation’s Elizabeth Vargas.
Reuben claims she still has nine bullet fragments in her face from the shooting, which occured on Dec. 27, 1999, at Club New York near Times Square. “So, what do they say to that? I have nine bullet fragments; I’m sure I can spare one.”
Reuben said she realizes the inherent danger involved in delivering the state’s evidence against the wealthy and influential music impresario.
In fact, Reuben’s story has been consistent over the past 25 years that she has been trying to get justice.
“I saw Mr. Combs … pull out a black gun with his right hand. I literally watched them pull out the guns; I had a clear point of view,” Reuben elaborates. “I mean, for God’s sake, I got shot in my nose. I was facing them directly. I watched everything occur and have described it, vehemently to all parties involved.”
“Who better to tell you what happened than the person who got shot smack dab in between my eyes?” Reuben continued.
Combs’ former bodyguard has already stated he’s willing to provide testimony
Even more potentially problematic for Combs’ is the fact that his former bodyguard, Gene Deal, has also volunteered to tell what he knows. If there is anyone who knows where all the bodies are buried — , metaphorically speaking — it would be the man who was constantly in proximity to Diddy.
In an earlier interview with “The Art of Dialogue,” Deal also admits that he has been butchered by Diddy supporters for his stance.
“I get all kinds of hate mail, IG’s, talking about that I am trying to take a Black man down. No, I went through every step you are supposed to go through when you got an issue with a man,” Deal explained.
“By him doing the things he did and taking the avenue he took, he’s suffering the consequences — and I don’t feel bad at all,” he added. “You got your respect in the street that gave you your power, that brought you your money … Do I care what happens? Got enough money to buy his way out of it … so we think.”
