Show Notes
Diddy’s defence team has tried to establish that the so-called ‘freak-offs’ - sexual encounters in which Cassie Ventura would have sex with male escorts while Diddy watched - may have been consensual. It’s been the first day of Cassie’s cross-examination by one of Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ lawyers. Anna Estevao asked Ventura about the more loving side of the pair's time together, after she testified over the last two days about alleged violence and abuse.
Anoushka Mutanda-Dougherty speaks to the BBC’s Madeline Halpert about Cassie’s cross examination and gets the latest legal analysis from criminal defence attorney Shaun Kent.
A warning that this episode contains descriptions of violence, sexual violence, including rape and graphic descriptions of sex.
