Welcome to Crimetown, a series produced by Marc Smerling and Zac Stuart-Pontier in partnership with Gimlet Media. Each season, we investigate the culture of crime in a different city. In Season 2, Crimetown heads to the heart of the Rust Belt: Detroit, Michigan. From its heyday as Motor City to its rebirth as the Brooklyn of the Midwest, Detroit’s history reflects a series of issues that strike at the heart of American identity: race, poverty, policing, loss of industry, the war on drugs, an ...

Diddy Trial Day 2 Recap: Cassie Breaks Down in Court With Haunting Testimony Of Diddy's Control
In this episode, we dive into Chapter Two of Cassie Ventura’s stunning testimony in the federal trial of Sean “Diddy” Combs — and this part of the story is where the emotional weight truly hits. While the previous chapter exposed the alleged logistics of Combs’ so-called “freak off” sex sessions, what Ventura revealed in this testimony goes deeper. It's not just about what happened — it's about what it did to her.
Cassie described, in heartbreaking detail, how control was exerted not through threats alone, but through emotional manipulation, psychological isolation, and years of fear. From the moment she met Combs at 19, she said, her life became less her own and more his to manage. The music she made — nine full albums — never saw the light of day. Her voice was literally and metaphorically muted. Her image, her schedule, even her relationships were filtered through his control.
And then there was the abuse. Physical. Emotional. Digital. She recounted being stomped, dragged, and recorded during sexual encounters she says were coerced. And even more devastating — she admitted that at times, the only value she felt came in the moments after the abuse, when Combs gave her attention. That emotional admission struck a chord with the jury — and with the public watching.
Testifying while visibly pregnant, Ventura didn’t just share her past — she reclaimed it. This isn’t just a story about one woman’s trauma. It’s a chilling account of how coercion works quietly, persistently, and how it leaves scars far deeper than anything visible.
