Sean “Diddy” is increasing on analgesics at night when he attended a manor evening Playboy in 2012 when he was fighting against the problems of drug addiction, that the besieged rap magnate and his former long -term girlfriend, Cassie Ventura, have experienced racking and racketeering.
The incident occurred around four years in their tumultuous relationship, which Ventura detailed within the framework of the testimony it gave before a lower Manhattan Federal Court when the defense distrusts it. Ventura spent this day this week telling the courts of the shiny details of his time with combs with the court, which involved physical abuses, manipulations, violence and his obligation to participate in “freak-offs”, sexual encounters fueled by drugs with male workers while the comb looked and masturbated.
“Was it roughly when Whitney Houston died? I believe him,” Ventura asked the defense lawyer when he was questioned about the overdose of Combs. “That evening, we had a” freak-off “. We went to a sex in San Bernardino.
Ventura told the defense lawyer who asked her about his time with the influential player in the rap and fashion industry that she and combits used pain relievers and opioids throughout their relationship; When Combs was at the top of the rap and fashion industries, he was drug addict, said Ventura. “I would say he was a drug addict,” she said in court, also saying: “He had to recover.” While questioning by prosecutors earlier in the week, Ventura said that she had started to have analgesics to have fun after the punishing “dressings”, which could involve taking drugs and engaging in sexual acts, according to her, was orchestrated and led by combs for days.
Combs was arrested in September and, in an indictment of five counts, is accused by federal prosecutors of two decades of abuse of women, trafficking in sex workers and transforming her music and fashion empire into a criminal business. He pleaded not guilty and denies all the allegations against him.
Ventura experienced a passage in a rehabilitation center in Arizona which, according to her, did not bake and said that for her and the bands of bands, the dependence problems were intermittent and that they would have conversations on the desire to clean and stop stopping. The consumption of drugs had an impact on “freak-offs”, revealed Ventura later Thursday, saying that Combs expressed his concern about taking “the matrix”, which was their code when they had become too high for sexual relations to occur during a “freak-off”.
The Ventura’s counter-examination was largely made up of the defense which attempts to show it as a voluntary participant in the apparently abusive relationship with the combs. Questions about his infidelity, his consumption of drugs and his jealousy about her relations with other women have been mainly deviated by Ventura, who is frank by testifying to the aspects of her past which are less than flattering, clearly characterizing this as a past behavior linked to a toxic relationship in his past. At one point, she told Combs Defense Advocate, Anna Estevao, the reason why she had continued to participate in “freak-offs” with Combs was because for her, it was “work”. Ventura, who is now married and has two children, is eight months pregnant as she details her time with combs as a star witness of the accusation.
The Ventura affair in 2011 with rapper Kid Cudi and romantic participation with actor Michael B. Jordan were discussed in court, because she explained the “explosive” reaction of Combs when he learned his infidelity or his decision to go out with another celebrity. Infidelity was a frequent problem with the couple; Ventura testified that she was “jealous” of the Combs’ relationship with her ex, the late Kim Porter model, and said that after years of tremors, she wanted to be part of her family life. Combs, she testified, would evoke the case with Cudi throughout the relationship whenever his infidelity appeared in arguments, she told court.
On Thursday, the defense also presented to the jury a burst of texts between Ventura and Combs, trying to prove that she was a voluntary participant in the “freak-offs” and did not force anything against her will.
In a message, Ventura wrote: “I’m still ready to panic Lol.” Combs wrote in another: “I am so excited”, and Ventura replied: “OMG, I was about to send you an SMS the same thing.” In a third, Combs sent a text, “I can’t wait” one of their “freak-offs”, Ventura replied: “I can’t wait.” A text message from Ventura that the defense presented was so graphic that the federal prosecutors opposed and judge Arun Subramanian argued and called for a recreation.
Ventura testified that she had participated in drug and sex marathons to keep Combs, her boss of Bad Boy Records and a romantic long -term partner, happy and fulfilled. She told court only, she hoped to have a child with him.
With one day to the left of the planned counterfeitmentary, judge Subramanian urges the defense team to complete his questions. The defense argued that the prosecutors called two witnesses this week before Ventura’s testimony and, therefore, it should be at their disposal for the completion of the counter-examination on Monday.
“We are going to try to reduce it,” said defense lawyer Marc Agnifilo. “He is a critical witness and I will come back in the morning and I will give you an estimate. It is an important witness and a very important case. ”
