Overview

  • Mia, a former personal assistant, testified that P. Diddy subjected her to repeated physical assaults including beatings, ice-bucket attacks and sexual violence during her tenure.
  • She detailed organizing drugged “marathons” in hotel rooms where Sean Combs allegedly compelled his ex-partner Cassie Ventura to have paid intercourse with other men.
  • The witness said she was ordered to treat and hide Cassie’s visible bruises and black eyes to preserve the rapper’s public image at high-profile events.
  • Mia told jurors that Combs wielded influence greater than the police when she was released during a Los Angeles traffic stop after mentioning his name.
  • P. Diddy’s legal team has challenged the credibility of witnesses and argues that Cassie consented to the encounters as the trial prepares for additional testimony next month.
