Diddy Trial: Cassie Testifies to Abuse, Coercion

Sean 'Diddy' Combs' sex trafficking trial is underway in New York, with ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura serving as the prosecution's star witness. Ventura testified that she was coerced into drug-fueled 'freak-off' sex sessions with escorts while Combs watched and recorded, and described enduring frequent physical abuse during their relationship. Multiple witnesses, including a male escort and a hotel security guard, and graphic video evidence have corroborated allegations of violence and control. The defense admits Combs' history of domestic violence but argues all sexual acts were consensual and not criminal. Cassie's 2023 civil suit, settled for eight figures, reportedly sparked the current criminal case. Combs, 55, has pleaded not guilty and remains incarcerated as further testimony is expected.
