On Wednesday (May 14), Cassie Ventura testified in Sean "Diddy" Combs' federal sex trafficking and racketeering trial, alleging that the Bad Boy Records founder raped her after their nearly eleven-year relationship ended. She also recounted attempting to harm herself following a breakdown in 2023.

Speaking in a Manhattan courtroom on day three of the trial, Cassie claimed that Diddy forced his way into her Los Angeles apartment and raped her on the living room floor after she asked to end their relationship in August 2018. She claimed the two had a closure conversation at a restaurant to end things, and after he drove her home, he allegedly forced her to have sex.

Cassie described the alleged incident in detail, claiming Diddy's eyes went "black" as he allegedly raped her on the apartment floor. She said she was crying during the alleged assault and didn’t think he even noticed, as he got up and left afterward. Cassie added that the alleged incident occurred while she was dating her now-husband, Alex Fine.

Cassie recalled having consensual sex with Diddy one more time after the alleged rape. When asked by prosecutors why she voluntarily had intercourse with him again after he allegedly raped her, she noted that they had been together for 10 years.

Elsewhere in her testimony, Cassie reportedly became emotional as she recalled going to rehab and therapy following a breakdown caused by the trauma she endured. She claimed she had become suicidal and experienced "horrible flashbacks" during a music video shoot in February 2023. Cassie also said she was experiencing post-traumatic stress disorder, blacking out and sleepwalking following their breakup in 2018.

She also told the jury that she attempted to end her life by walking into traffic, but her husband prevented it from happening. She said she remembered “telling him you can do this without me. You don’t need me here anymore.”

“I can’t carry this anymore. I can’t carry the shame, the guilt," she reportedly said when asked why she opted to testify at Diddy's trial.

Diddy is facing charges of racketeering and sex trafficking by means of force, fraud, or coercion.
