Diddy's Trial Unveils Allegations of Violence and Control Over Cassie Ventura
Shocking testimonies reveal past assaults and a tumultuous relationship as Diddy faces serious charges in court.
In a dramatic continuation of Sean "Diddy" Combs' sex-trafficking trial, disturbing testimonies emerged detailing alleged violent incidents involving his former girlfriend, Cassie Ventura. During court proceedings in Lower Manhattan, a former friend of Ventura, Kerry Morgan, recounted a terrifying incident where Combs reportedly attempted to break into Ventura's apartment using a hammer following an assault at the Intercontinental Hotel in 2016.
The jury was shown security footage of the hotel incident multiple times. Morgan recounted witnessing Combs banging on Ventura's door, describing the scene as frightening. She revealed that after the hotel assault, Combs' aggression continued, as he confronted Ventura at her Los Angeles home. Morgan indicated that during this altercation, it seemed Ventura was indifferent to the potential danger posed by Combs, who did not gain entry and left before police arrived about three hours later.
Alongside these allegations of intimidation, the trial also highlighted more instances of Combs’ violent behavior. Morgan described a distressing vacation incident in Jamaica where Combs allegedly dragged Ventura down a hallway by her hair for taking too long in the bathroom. Morgan herself reportedly suffered violence at Combs' hands, having alleged he choked her and threw a wooden hanger at her during a confrontation in 2018.
The testimony also unveiled a complicated dynamic between Morgan and Ventura, who were best friends for 17 years. Their friendship ended abruptly after Ventura offered Morgan $30,000 to sign a non-disclosure agreement concerning Combs' behavior.
Following Morgan's testimony, former assistant to Combs, David James, took the stand. He painted a picture of a formidable office atmosphere under Combs’ control, recalling statements regarding Ventura that indicated a controlling perspective.
The trial is set to continue, with James remaining on the witness stand, as the serious implications of the testimony tighten around Combs, who has pleaded not guilty to multiple serious charges and faces potential life imprisonment if convicted.
