Diddy Trial Day 3 Recap: Defense Turns Aggressive & Cassie's Own Texts Used Against Her In this episode, we dive into one of the most intense moments yet in the federal sex trafficking trial of Sean “Diddy” Combs. Cassie Ventura, the prosecution's star witness and former longtime partner of Combs, returned to the stand for a high-stakes cross-examination—and the defense came in swinging. Diddy's attorneys wasted no time. They launched an aggressive strategy aimed at dismantling Ventura's credibility using her own text messages—many of them explicit, affectionate, and at times, seemingly enthusiastic about the very acts she now says were rooted in coercion. These weren't vague references. The defense made her read her own messages out loud in court, including intimate exchanges about the so-called “freak offs,” Combs' pet name for sex parties involving third parties, often arranged and controlled by him. The defense's goal? To reframe Ventura not as a manipulated victim, but as an eager, consenting participant. But Ventura didn't back down. She calmly read the messages, then explained them—describing the emotional pressure she felt to say what Combs wanted to hear in order to avoid conflict or violence. She made clear: these were survival tactics, not enthusiasm. It didn't stop there. The defense brought up her secret burner phone used to talk to rapper Kid Cudi, hinted at jealousy toward Combs' ex Kim Porter, and even threw in suspicions about Michael B. Jordan. All of it was meant to raise doubts about Ventura's truthfulness and motivations. But even under pressure, Ventura didn't crack. And the jury watched every moment—carefully, quietly, absorbing each detail. This episode unpacks how a few lines of text became the battleground for consent, power, and credibility in one of the most closely watched trials in the country. #DiddyTrial #CassieVentura #SeanCombs #SexTraffickingTrial #TrueCrimePodcast #CourtroomDrama #FreakOffs #FederalTrial #HiddenKillers #CelebrityTrial Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

On the fourth day of Sean "Diddy" Combs' federal sex trafficking and racketeering trial, Cassie Ventura faced intense cross-examination from the defense. Attorney Anna Estevao sought to portray Ventura as a consenting participant in their tumultuous relationship, highlighting text messages and emails that suggested mutual affection and willingness to engage in the so-called "freak-offs"—drug-fueled group sex encounters central to the prosecution's case. The defense emphasized instances where Ventura appeared to plan these events, referencing messages where she expressed anticipation and involvement in organizing them. They also delved into her past relationships, including with rapper Kid Cudi and actor Michael B. Jordan, to suggest mutual jealousy and complexity in her relationship with Combs.Ventura, who is currently eight months pregnant, maintained that her participation in these events was driven by fear and manipulation. She testified that Combs exerted control over her, using threats and violence to coerce her into compliance. When questioned about their drug use, Ventura acknowledged that they both used substances but asserted that Combs became angry if she used drugs without him, indicating a controlling dynamic. She also recounted incidents of violence, including an episode where Combs allegedly threw a wooden hanger at her friend, leading to the end of that friendship. Despite the defense's efforts to challenge her credibility, Ventura remained composed, reiterating that her actions were often a result of coercion and fear.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:May 15, 2025 - Day 4 of testimony in the Sean ‘Diddy' Combs trial | CNN

The defense showed Combs's ex-girlfriend texts where she appeared to be a willing participant in drug-fueled sex acts. She testified that in the early days of their relationship she wanted to make him happy, but later feared his anger if she said no. Ventura also admitted to jealousy over other women Combs was dating during their 11 years together, but said Combs's jealous rage turned into violence, such as when he found out she was dating musician and actor Kid Cudi. Allegedly he kicked her in the back and later blew up Kid Cudi's car.If you want to read NBC's coverage of the trial, check out our newsletter, “Diddy On Trial”: NBCNews.com/Diddy
