Diddy's ex forced to read her explicit messages aloud in cross examination
Share this @internewscast.com
R&B singer Cassie was forced under cross-examination on Thursday to read aloud to a jury her explicit messages with former boyfriend Sean “Diddy” Combs, some of which showed her expressing enthusiasm for Combs-directed encounters with other men that she previously testified had disgusted her.
Combs’ lawyers began questioning the prosecution’s star witness on the fourth day of the music mogul’s sex trafficking trial in Manhattan, which is expected to last about two months.

Federal prosecutors accuse Combs of exploiting his status as a powerful music executive and entrepreneur to violently force Cassie and other women to take part in these encounters with sex workers, which he called “freak-offs.”

Cassie sued Combs in 2023, accusing him of years of physical and sexual abuse. Within hours, the suit was settled for $US20 million ($31.2 million) — a figure Cassie disclosed for the first time on Wednesday — but dozens of similar legal claims followed from other women.

Estevao asked Cassie if it was “fair to say” that Combs’ career was ruined after she sued him, making public for the first time the concept of “freak-offs.” Cassie responded, “I could understand that.”

Combs, 55, has been jailed since September. He faces at least 15 years in prison if convicted.
