The high-profile trial of Sean “Diddy” Combs took an awkward turn when a courtroom microphone picked up a private comment the music mogul made to his lawyer. Combs is currently facing serious charges, including sex trafficking and racketeering, all of which he denies.
This week, his ex-partner Cassie Ventura took the stand for three days, detailing disturbing allegations about their 11-year relationship. She described being forced to participate in what she called “freak-off” parties, claiming they left her physically and emotionally traumatized. At one point, she alleged Combs instructed a male escort to urinate in her mouth, leaving her with lasting health issues.
During cross-examination, Combs’ attorney, Anna Estevao, presented intimate text messages between the two, suggesting Cassie had willingly participated in these encounters. As Estevao pressed Cassie about their past relationship, a hot mic caught Combs whispering, “I’m proud,” seemingly praising his lawyer’s approach.
The tense exchange continued as Cassie admitted she had once loved Combs but maintained that the alleged abuse was not consensual. She also testified about Combs’ struggles with drug addiction, recalling an incident where he reportedly overdosed at the Playboy Mansion.
The trial remains ongoing, with both sides presenting starkly different narratives about their tumultuous relationship.
