In her opening testimony at Sean Combs’s federal trial, Casandra “Cassie” Ventura delivered a harrowing account of her years-long relationship with the music mogul, describing a pattern of psychological control, degradation, and forced sexual encounters. Cassie testified that Combs regularly orchestrated drug-fueled sex sessions involving male prostitutes, during which she was instructed to participate while he watched. These sessions, often involving excessive alcohol and drugs, left her feeling “disgusting,” “ashamed,” and “humiliated.” Her testimony painted a picture of a coercive dynamic where Combs maintained power over her through manipulation, surveillance, and fear.
Cassie’s testimony also introduced key elements of the government’s sex trafficking case: interstate travel under Combs’s orders, the use of intimidation and drugs to compel participation, and a consistent effort by Combs to isolate and dominate her. She detailed how she was told what to wear, how to behave, and was repeatedly forced into situations she found degrading. These initial statements from Cassie not only humanized the allegations but laid the emotional groundwork for the prosecution’s case by portraying Combs not just as a controlling partner, but as a calculated figure who used his wealth and fame to conceal a deeply abusive private life.
