Let's cut to the chase: Diddy's ex, Cassie Ventura, has been honest about the relationship's dark side. It's been years since their 2018 split, but the memories keep digging in like a persistent bad dream. "I hit rock bottom, I just couldn't take the pain anymore," Cassie admitted. In 2023, her husband Alex Fine saved her from a suicide attempt. But that's not all, she sought professional help too.
Tuesday marked a significant day. For the first time, Cassie stood up in court to vocalize the horrors she endured. The 38-year-old spilled the beans on Diddy's violent outbursts, his obsession with drug and sex parties that he called "freak-offs," and some depraved happenings that would churn your stomach. According to Cassie, the rapper, in his twisted arousal, would either pee on her or pay prostitutes to do so. Worse still, she claimed to have indulged in ecstasy or cocaine to stay awake during multi-day sex marathons and to satisfy Diddy's twisted desires.
Cassie sued the music mogul in 2023 for years of abuse and unlawful acts. They settled out of court, but it didn't stop other women and men from coming forward with their own tales of woe against Diddy.
The prosecution accuses Diddy of sexually assaulting women and men, and coercing them into his drug and sex parties under threats and violence. Diddy's lawyer, Teny Geragos, refuted the claims in her opening statement on Monday. Although she admitted that the relationship between Diddy and Cassie was toxic and violent, it did not involve non-consensual sex, she argued. Regarding Cassie's testimony, the defense claimed she voluntarily took drugs, so there was no coercion.
The trial in New York is predicted to last eight to ten weeks. If found guilty, Diddy faces a possible life sentence.
