As a pregnant Cassie Ventura prepares to welcome her third child with husband Alex Fine, she’s also stepping back into the spotlight for a very different reason—resuming her harrowing testimony against Sean “Diddy” Combs in federal court.
The R&B singer, now 38, is facing the jury for a second day, sharing chilling details about her decade-long relationship with the music mogul.
Her voice may tremble, but her determination to tell the truth rings loud and clear.
Inside the Alleged Nightmare: Freak Offs and Forced Encounters
Cassie described what she called “Freak Offs”—drug-fueled sex sessions orchestrated by Diddy that could last several days. These weren’t just consensual encounters.
According to her testimony, they were coerced, abusive, and meticulously controlled.
Diddy, she claims, dictated everything from her partners to the use of baby oil to achieve a “glistening” effect—sometimes requiring up to ten bottles in one session.
She told the court how he would direct her to kiss escorts even when she resisted, saying it felt too intimate.
“Sean told me to do it,” she said.
Her tone made it clear: it wasn’t a request. It was an order.
Text Messages and Drug Use: “Let’s Do a Proper Freak Off”
Text exchanges shown to the jury revealed Diddy telling Cassie not to use ketamine for their next session.
Ketamine, she explained, allowed her to mentally detach from what was happening.
“A successful FO is when we remember,” he texted. Cassie’s reply was weary: “That’s all we do… I’m just getting back on track.”
These sessions, she said, left her with more than emotional scars.
She frequently suffered from urinary tract infections and gastrointestinal problems, describing the pain of trying to “do a Freak Off with an infection.”
Her use of opioids became a coping mechanism.
“I didn’t want to feel what was actually going on,” she admitted.
“It was an escape.”
Cassie Claims Diddy Used Sex Tapes to Threaten Her
Another disturbing claim emerged in court: Cassie said Diddy often threatened to release explicit footage of their “Freak Offs.”
These recordings, she feared, could destroy her career, her reputation, and her family.
“It’s just embarrassing. It’s horrible and disgusting. No one should do that to anyone,” she said, visibly shaken.
In a text, she pleaded with Diddy to delete the videos.
He replied that he had—but she later saw evidence suggesting otherwise.
The fear of public humiliation was constant, she said.
“I wasn’t supposed to be on those videos. I didn’t want to be in them.”
Diddy’s Defense: Admits Violence, Denies Trafficking
While Diddy’s legal team has acknowledged acts of domestic violence, they firmly deny any charges of sex trafficking or racketeering.
Their argument? That the government is unfairly targeting Diddy because of his sexual lifestyle.
Still, as Cassie speaks and more evidence emerges—including surveillance footage from a brutal 2016 assault—the courtroom is being asked to look beyond the glitz and see a pattern of control and abuse.
Surveillance Video and Assault Evidence Stun Courtroom
A now-infamous hotel video from 2016 shows Diddy attacking Cassie in a hallway—pacing, dragging, and striking her.
When asked about a photo of herself with a swollen lip, Cassie confirmed it was taken right after that incident.
“That’s me,” she said.
She later texted Diddy: “You are sick for thinking it’s OK to do what you’ve done.”
Cassie told the court she didn’t report him to the police because she still wanted to protect him.
“I wasn’t ready,” she said, tears in her eyes.
Her best friend at the time, model Kerry Morgan, was so alarmed by her injuries that she called the police anyway.
That friendship would later fall apart under the pressure of Diddy’s influence and settlement agreements.
A History of Abuse: Fighting Back Made Things Worse
When asked why she didn’t resist the 2016 assault, Cassie gave a chilling explanation.
She said she had learned early in the relationship that fighting back only escalated Diddy’s rage.
“It made him more violent. He’d push me harder.”
Her words painted a picture of a woman trapped in a cycle of fear and manipulation—too scared to leave, too ashamed to speak out.
Suge Knight and Guns: A Glimpse Into Diddy’s World
In one bizarre account, Cassie described how Diddy once left a sex session to confront rival Suge Knight at a diner nearby.
“They put on black clothes, went to the safe, grabbed guns,” she recalled.
“I cried. I said, don’t do something stupid.”
It was moments like these that made her feel invisible, she said—as if she were just background noise to the chaos unfolding around her.
The Courtroom Scene: Family Divided, Tensions High
Diddy’s three daughters—Chance, D’Lila, and Jessie—were notably absent from the courtroom on Wednesday, although they had been present for earlier parts of the trial.
His mother and sons have remained by his side, though visibly uncomfortable during graphic testimony.
Meanwhile, Cassie entered the courtroom calmly, dressed in a gray sweater and jacket.
Despite being over eight months pregnant, she remains poised and resolute.
Cassie’s Husband Alex Fine: In, Then Out of Court
Diddy’s lawyers made a surprising move—asking that Cassie’s husband, Alex Fine, be removed from the courtroom.
They argue he may become a witness later, as he reportedly sent Diddy a threatening text after learning of alleged abuse.
Prosecutors pushed back, saying Fine is Cassie’s emotional support.
The judge decided on a compromise: Fine could stay for most of her testimony, but not all.
A Disturbing Legacy and the Charges Ahead
This trial isn’t just about one man and one woman—it’s about a culture of silence, control, and alleged abuse hidden behind fame and fortune.
Diddy, now 55, faces charges of racketeering, sex trafficking, and transportation for prostitution.
As the trial unfolds over the coming weeks, many are watching closely, wondering just how deep this scandal goes.
Cassie, for her part, seems determined to ensure that silence is broken.
Her words, though painful, may be the beginning of accountability—not just for Diddy, but for an industry long plagued by secrets.
