“He told her he could destroy her career by releasing the videos of her performing sex acts on dozens of male escorts. They were souvenirs of the most humiliating nights of her life.” – Assistant US Attorney Emily Johnson

Sean “Diddy” Combs is facing serious criminal charges, including kidnapping, arson, and sex crimes, as his trial begins in New York. Cassie Ventura, his ex-girlfriend, testified about the alleged abuse she suffered during their 11-year relationship. She described being drugged, forced into sex acts with male escorts, and filmed during “freak-off” parties organized by Combs. Cassie said Combs used the tapes to threaten her career, claiming, “He could destroy her career by releasing the videos.”
Assistant US Attorney Emily Johnson outlined how Combs allegedly controlled Cassie with violence and blackmail, including physical abuse and threats. Cassie recounted being beaten and manipulated by Combs, stating, “I didn’t feel like I had much of a choice.”
Additional testimony from witnesses also painted a disturbing picture of Combs’ alleged actions, including the use of escorts and filming violent encounters. Combs denies the charges, pleading not guilty. The trial continues.
