Cassie Ventura broke down in court on Tuesday while recounting the violent behaviour she allegedly endured from Sean “Diddy” Combs, as reported by the New York Post.
Ventura testified in Manhattan federal court during Combs' sex-trafficking trial, describing how Combs’ eyes would suddenly “just go black” when he went into violent rages. She explained, "He would be violent with me, his look would just change over, he would just become a different person. I wouldn't know what would happen."
Ventura is now married with two children and eight months pregnant with her third.
She shared how Diddy's outbursts often came without warning. "The best way to describe it is, his eyes just go black. The version that I was in love with is no longer there," she said.
Her testimony is central to the prosecution's case against Combs, who is accused of trafficking women for sex during "freak-offs" and other crimes. Ventura described how Combs controlled intimate moments, often down to disturbing details. She explained that the violence was sometimes triggered by something as simple as her facial expression. "There were certain times when I knew it wasn’t even about me... make the wrong face, and the next thing I knew I was getting hit in the face," she said.
Ventura also shared that Combs would demand she "fix her face" or "watch [her] mouth" whenever she didn’t act or look the way he wanted. "Those were things that were said in the relationship quite often: 'Fix your face,' or 'Watch your mouth,'" she recalled.
In addition to her testimony, the jury was shown a hotel security video from 2016, where Combs was seen attacking Ventura in a hotel lobby. The footage showed Combs throwing her to the ground. When asked by the prosecutor how many times Combs had thrown her to the ground, Ventura responded, “Too many to count.”
Cassie Ventura's testimony also revealed chilling details about the "freak-off" parties that Combs allegedly organised. She said these parties were not spontaneous but carefully planned events that lasted for several days. Combs, with the help of his associates, allegedly arranged the travel, accommodations, and recruitment of male sex workers for these parties. The gatherings took place in private settings, including hotel suites and mansions, and involved heavy use of drugs and alcohol. Ventura claimed she was forced to participate in these sessions, which she said were filmed and used to control her.
Cassie’s connection with Diddy began in 2004, when he discovered her and signed her to his Bad Boy Records. Their professional relationship quickly turned personal, and by 2005, they were romantically linked. At just 19 years old, Cassie was thrust into Combs’ world, where he allegedly took control of her career and personal life.
Over the years, Cassie was reportedly subjected to abuse and manipulation. Combs allegedly made disturbing demands and controlled her actions. In 2023, after years of silence, she filed a civil lawsuit in federal court, accusing Combs of physical abuse and other traumatic experiences throughout their relationship.
