R&B Star Cassie explains why she joined Freak Offs from Sean Combs: Love

The singer of R&B Cassie Ventura, a longtime girlfriend from Sean “Diddy”, Combs, was broken down on Tuesday on the stand of witnesses when she declared that she felt “worthless” joining the sexual marathons fueled by the drug he called “Freak Offs”.

“I felt pretty horrible about me. I felt disgusting. I was humiliated. I did not have the words at the time to tell him what I felt. And I couldn’t tell anyone,” Ventura, who is eight months pregnant, told a jury in Manhattan, punching tears while she was sitting in front of her. Sexual traffic and racketeering.

Ventura testified that she did not want to have sex with the male escorts who, according to Combs, recruited for the sessions, but she said that she wanted to be intimate with Combs. She wanted a time head-to-face with combs, and frequently said, she said, were “the only time I could get”.

“I wanted him to know what to do it made me horrible. It made me feel worthless,” said Ventura, adding that he was “quite disdainful” when she said to Combtes how terrible she felt, including in emails and sms.

She called him “pop pop” in these exchanges-at her request, she said, after he asked her to call him “what I call my grandfather”.

We have shown that jurors showed photographs of six men, Ventura, was paid by combs to have sex with her “almost every week”, and sometimes two at a time.

Their names included “Dave”, “Jules” and “Daniel”, she said, because the images were shown one by one.

“I knew him as” The Punisher “, she said about the photo of a male escort hired” sometimes. “”

Ventura said that she had taken drugs, including Molly and Ecstasy, to commit to what was going on.

She described in graphic terms the meetings which, according to her, leave the furniture and sheets of the hotel stained with blood, urine, wax of candle and baby oil.

The air was often thick with the smell of the body smell and the smoke of half a dozen clearing candles, she said.

“I hated that,” she told the jury, calling men hired “foreign”.

At the beginning of her testimony, Ventura told the jury that she loved Combs and had felt the meaning of the duty to join The Freak Offs, which is at the heart of the accusation against Combs.

“I was just in love and I wanted to make him happy,” said Ventura.

Ventura, who was released with combs from 2007 to 2018, described himself as a “pleasure of people” and said to the eight men and four women on the jury that Combs was often violent with her.

She testified that the arguments with combs would regularly lead to physical violence.

“He struck me in my head, overturned me, dragged me, Bota, will trample in my head,” said Ventura, adding that Combs was beating her “too frequently”.

“I would be struck in my forehead, burst lips, swollen lips, black eyes,” said Ventura, “bruises all over the body.”

When he became violent, “his eyes became black,” she told Combs jury.

Ventura is the key witness of the accusation in the case.

Prosecutors allege that for two decades, Combres led a criminal enterprise that involved the sexual traffic of Ventura and an anonymous jane.

Ventura’s climb to the witnesses – she is eight months pregnant and wore an expandable brown dress and a mustard -colored overcoat – came in the middle of the first time she and Combres have been in the same room since 2018. It was at this point that she attended the Kim Porter funeral, a long -term girlfriend of Combs and the mother of four of her children.

Ventura told the jury that it was shortly after starting to go out with combs that she had learned that he suddenly had violent mood swings.

“Make a bad face and the next thing I knew I was hitting,” she told jurors.

He was attacking it “if I didn’t smile at him, if I didn’t look at the way he loved”, or if she was “Bratty”, she said.

“Watch your mouth,” she said, he would tell her if he thought she was talking out of turn.

The appearance of Ventura followed a first day of swirl of the trial.

On Monday, the jury heard the opening declarations and the testimony of the first two witnesses, including an exotic dancer who testified that he had been paid several times to have sex with Ventura while Combs looked.

Prosecutor Emily Johnson told the jury that the combs had used “lies, drugs, threats and violence to force and force” Ventura and another woman in “Freak Offs”.

Lots of bathroom breaks

Prosecutors say that Ventura, 38, will be on the stand by testifying to Combs, 55, for most of this week.

She is due to give birth to her third child next month with her husband, Alex Fine, said a source. She should take breaks every 90 minutes during her testimony.

A fine can be called to the position as a discharge witness, said Combs lawyer, Teny Geragos, to the judge, which allows him to look at part of his testimony.

If the fine is invited to take a stand, he will be invited to dismiss the testimony of his wife, said Geragos outside the presence of the jury a few moments before the start of Ventura.

Fine can be questioned about “several very threatening messages” in which he spoke of “beat the word F of” Combs, said the lawyer.

The act of criminal indictment against the bands accuses it of making Ventura undertakes “in commercial sex acts following strength, fraud and coercion” throughout their relationship of decade.

Prosecutors allegedly alleged that the sexual commercial acts involved the so-called Freak Offs.

Ventura’s account on abuses could be reinforced by a security video seeming to show combing Ventura in the corridor of the intercontinental hotel now closed in Los Angeles. Prosecutors say that the video shows that Ventura has trouble leaving the hotel after a monster held there in 2016. The jurors were shown this video on Monday.

When we showed him a video of this video on Tuesday in court, Ventura told the jurors: “We had a meeting that we called a monster.”

During the first year of the relationship, “Sean offered me this sexual encounter which he called voyeurism, where he looked at me a sexual encounter with a third man, in particular another man,” said Ventura.

Ventura said that she had first accepted a panic because she “felt a sense of responsibility, Sean sharing something like that with me”.

“In addition, I loved him so much,” said Ventura.

Combs apologized after the video surfaced in 2023, and his lawyers conceded that he was violent during the relationship. But they alleged that Ventura was also violent. They say that all sexual meetings were consensual.

“There were two sides,” Combs lawyer Marc Agnifilo said on Friday. Ventura’s lawyer refused to comment on this allegation.

Since his arrest in September, Combs has argued that he had never sexually abused anyone.

If he is found guilty of accusations of sex trafficking and racketeering, Combs could spend the rest of his life behind bars.

This story has been updated with additional testimony throughout the day on Tuesday.
