After more than half a year in detention, hip-hop mogul Diddy was finally brought to trial. During the trial, Diddy’s girlfriend, singer Cassie Ventura, stood up to expose the crimes of this mogul.
In addition to the chilling details, she also revealed extremely heartbreaking text messages with Diddy. In April 2010, she expressed her wish that the relationship with Diddy would be more meaningful than just focusing on sex: “I am really hurt by the way you treat me, I don’t need your money, I need your attention.”

On March 10, 2016, five days after Diddy had abused and apologized to Cassie, she wrote: “When I mess up, I always want to show you how strong I am and knock you to the ground. You’re not a rag doll, you’re someone’s child too.”
After 11 years of hell, their relationship officially ended in 2018. Diddy now wanted to hold on to Cassie: “Don’t I have a chance to make things better? Have I never cared about you?” . In response, Cassie only said: “You cared about me materially, but that’s not what I need. I need you to love me and put me first.”
But during a meeting to end things in August 2018, Diddy raped Cassie. He pretended to be polite and took her home, but then raped her on the living room floor. The singer cried as she recounted this in court.
Although Diddy seemed to hold on, he raped Cassie in their last meeting.
In addition, Cassie also publicly sent a message of her heartache at being left out of Diddy’s family. The singer compared the case of Bruce Willis’ new wife, Eddie Murphy, who is very integrated with her husband’s children. But Diddy and his children hang out with their biological mother, Kim Porter. “I’ve been on the verge of tears all week. I don’t think you understand my feelings. People don’t know you and Kim Porter are together. I’m always here and ready to be that woman. I’m mentally prepared for the pictures to break my heart” – Cassie sent a message to Diddy.
Diddy had made Cassie fall in love in the early days. In an email in 2008, Cassie wrote: “I love you so much” after Diddy thanked her for flying to Atlanta with him. In 2009, Diddy also told his girlfriend: “I love you so much I’m crying”, which at the present time when reading it again, many people shudder and get goosebumps because it is so different from the actions he has done. Those were just short, rare days of love before a series of shocking events took place.
In her final testimony, Cassie burst into tears. She started the lawsuit in November 2023, Diddy immediately denied it and within 24 hours, this tycoon compensated Cassie 20 million USD (518 billion VND) in exchange for her silence. However, the mental pain has haunted her over the years.
Cassie said she never wanted to attend a wild party, but did not dare to refuse because “she did not want to disappoint Diddy”. According to the singer, she and the women around Diddy were manipulated and controlled. Diddy closely monitored what she wore, what makeup she wore, and how she behaved at parties. When asked why she decided to speak up to expose Diddy’s crimes, Cassie said: “I believe that it is right for me to appear here. I cannot bear the shame and guilt any longer.”
