Show Notes
The first week of testimony in the trial of music producer Sean “Diddy” Combs began with several witnesses, including the highly anticipated Casandra “Cassie” Ventura. Ventura is a central witness in the government’s case against Combs – she filed a civil lawsuit against him detailing allegations of violence and sex trafficking in 2023 that led to dozens of other lawsuits being filed.
Today, Style reporter Anne Branigin is back to describe the intense testimony, how it bolsters the government’s case and how the defense questioned Ventura in response. And just as a warning, this episode discusses sex, drugs, and violence, and thoughts of suicide.
