Cassie Ventura takes stand as star witness in Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs trial

Ventura told the court from the witness stand that her decade-long relationship with ex-boyfriend Combs was plagued by jealousy, violence and “humiliating” sex.

Cassie Ventura concluded her first day of dramatic, graphic and emotional testimony by recalling the time she says she tried to leave a "freak off" before it was over, returning jurors to a visceral piece of evidence.

“There’s an instance in Los Angeles where it got violent and I chose to leave,” Ventura said, referring to the March 2016 incident at the InterContinental Hotel in Century City, depicted on video shown to jurors Monday and today.

“There was a lot of drinking, a lot of partying. I’m not sure what happened but in the middle of it I got hit by Sean and got a black eye,” Ventura said.

“When I chose to leave, I grabbed what I could and got out and Sean followed me into the hallway by the elevators, grabbed me, tried to drag me back to the room,” Ventura said.

The video was played again for the jury. “That’s me,” Ventura said, referring to the footage.

Ventura said she made it to the elevators when “the next thing I knew I was just thrown to the ground.”

Ventura said Combs grabbed her by the back of the hoodie and threw her down. She told the jury that Combs had previously thrown her to the ground on multiple occasions: “too many to count,” she said.

Earlier, Ventura described how degrading the "freak offs" became.

“The idea of objectifying me was tossed around like it was nothing, putting me in these compromising positions with strangers,” she said.

She said that Combs insisted on recording the sex sessions, which she said “made me feel insane” because it was “humiliating, disgusting. Never wanted anyone to see me like that.”

Ventura will return to the witness stand on Wednesday.
