Cassie Ventura testified about the first time she recalled Sean Combs “knocked me around," describing a time in New York City when, she alleged, he “hit me in the side of the head and I fell to the floor.” Ventura testified that they were in a car when the alleged assault took place in front of a driver and staff.

Sighing heavily and pausing to compose herself, Cassie recounted feeling compelled by Combs to participate in lengthy “freak off” sex parties involving male sex workers.

Sean “Diddy” Combs allegedly raped Cassie after their break up in 2018, including on the same day she met with him to bring closure for the pair. At the time of the alleged rape, Cassie had started dating her current husband Alex Fine, with whom she shares two children and is expecting a third.
