Diddy Trial: Explicit Texts and Security Footage Highlight Contrasting Accounts in Cassie Ventura Testimony

The Sean "Diddy" Combs trial took another turn today with the continuation of Cassie Ventura’s testimony. Ventura, Combs’ former girlfriend, is facing intense cross-examination regarding their tumultuous 11-year relationship. The defense presented explicit text messages exchanged between Ventura and Combs, arguing they demonstrate consensual sexual encounters. However, security camera footage from a 2016 incident in a Los Angeles hotel shows Combs physically assaulting Ventura, contradicting the defense's claim. One text message shown in court read, “Baby I want to f.o. so bad,” while Ventura’s attorney, speaking outside the courtroom, stated, "She’s doing great. I think she’s demonstrating that." The trial continues, with the next witness expected to be Don "D-Roc" Rashid, a member of Diddy's Bad Boy Records. Combs faces decades in prison if convicted.
