The courtroom has been left stunned as Cassie Ventura continues to give graphic and emotional testimony in the federal s3x trafficking and racketeering trial of Sean “Diddy” Combs.
Her revelations have exposed a dark and disturbing side to their decade long relationship that many say they never expected.
Cassie, who dated Combs for years, has described a world of manipulation, physical abuse, and psychological control behind the scenes of one of the music industry’s most powerful men.
In court this week, she recounted horrifying details of what she called “freak offs”, private events where she was allegedly forced to have s3x with male escorts while Diddy watched and filmed.
“The freak offs became a job”
Cassie told the court, adding that these encounters could last up to four days, leaving her physically and emotionally exhausted.
To dissociate from what was happening, she admitted to using ketamine, a powerful drug she said was her “preferred choice” during these ordeals.
She explained that the drugs helped her feel numb, though they came with a cost.
Cassie claimed the experience of participating in these encounters led to frequent urinary tract infections, painful mouth sores, and gastrointestinal issues.
“I wouldn’t eat or sleep,” she said. “I would just do drugs to get through it.”
Despite these painful health problems, she said Diddy continued to pressure her into joining the events.
On her 29th birthday, when she had hoped to celebrate with friends, she claimed Combs insisted on hosting another “freak off” instead.
Text messages presented in court showed a chilling exchange between the two, where Diddy allegedly demanded Cassie call him and threatened her with the release of explicit material.
In one of the most disturbing moments of the trial, jurors were shown CCTV footage from a 2016 Los Angeles hotel, appearing to show Combs violently attacking Cassie in a hallway.
Cassie testified that after the attack, she received several texts from Combs, which she described as attempts to lure her back and manipulate her.
She also described an alleged assault in 2018, after she tried to leave the relationship.
According to her, Diddy rap3d her during what was supposed to be a conversation about closure.
The emotional toll was so severe that Cassie said she contemplated suicide, a revelation that shocked both the courtroom and the public following the case.
“I just didn’t want to live anymore,” she said during her testimony.
Cassie, now pregnant, is facing this trial head-on, hoping to expose what she says is years of exploitation and trauma.
Federal prosecutors allege that Diddy operated a criminal s3x ring, using fame and wealth to trap women in abusive dynamics masked as career opportunities.
Combs, who was arrested in 2024 at the Park Hyatt in New York, has pleaded not guilty to all charges.
He maintains that any s3xual activity was consensual and denies all allegations of trafficking and abuse.
If convicted, Combs could face life in prison.
As the trial unfolds, Cassie’s testimony continues to unravel a narrative far removed from the glitz and glamour of the industry, revealing the scars of a woman who says she survived years of coercion and cruelty behind closed doors.
