Recently leaked text messages between Cassie, the R&B artist and former partner of Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs, have unveiled harrowing details about the 2016 assault and their turbulent relationship. The messages depict a pattern of alleged physical abuse, including an incident that left Cassie with visible injuries.
“I have a black eye and fat lip. You always want to show me that you have the power and knock me around,” Cassie wrote in one of the texts, obtained by Enstarz.
Further texts detail the chilling aftermath of an assault: “You drag me down the hall by my hair… I have bleeding cuts… You hit me in the head two good times.”
“When you get f**ked up the wrong way, you always want to show me that you have the power and you knock me around. I’m not a rag doll. I’m someone’s child,” Cassie said in her texts messages.
These messages, paired with surveillance footage from 2016, paint a grim picture of Cassie’s ordeal during her relationship with the music mogul.
What the surveillance video showed
The video from March 2016, obtained by CNN recorded at the now-closed InterContinental Hotel in Los Angeles, appears to corroborate Cassie’s claims. The footage shows Cassie leaving a hotel room, followed by Diddy, dressed in a towel. He grabs her by the neck, throws her to the floor, and kicks her twice while she lies motionless.
Diddy is also seen dragging Cassie by her sweatshirt and hurling an object at her before sitting down in the hallway. The video ends with Diddy confronting her near the elevator. Prosecutors describe the video as undeniable evidence of abuse, while Diddy’s legal team alleges its release was improperly leaked to the media.
Diddy’s public apology
In response to the video, Diddy posted a video statement on Instagram earlier this year. “My behaviour on that video is inexcusable. I take full responsibility for my actions in that video,” he admitted.
“I was disgusted then when I did it. I’m disgusted now,” he added. “I sought therapy and rehab. I had to ask God for mercy and grace. I’m not asking for forgiveness. I’m truly sorry and committed to becoming a better man every day.”
Legal troubles mount for Diddy
Prosecutors claim Sean “Diddy” Combs has tried to influence potential jurors and witnesses for his upcoming sex trafficking trial while incarcerated, in an attempt to sway public opinion and impact the case. In a Manhattan court filing, prosecutors opposed his $50 million bail request, arguing that jail calls show Combs asked family members to contact victims and witnesses, urging them to create narratives favorable to his defense.
They also allege he orchestrated a social media campaign around his birthday to influence jurors. Combs, 55, faces charges of coercion, abuse, and blackmail, with prosecutors arguing he’s a flight risk and a danger to the community. This marks his third failed attempt for bail, following two rejections.
