Following the assault video of embattled American rapper and music executive, Sean Combs, better known as Diddy on his estranged girlfriend, Cassie, in a Los Angeles hotel hallway, the County District Attorney’s Office has said it won’t prosecute the singer. Sunday Telegraph reports that video footage obtained by CNN, captured Diddy repeatedly kicking and throwing objects at his then-girlfriend, Cassie in a Los Angeles hotel hallway in 2016. The emergence of the footage is against the backdrop of the multiple sexual assault charges being pressed against the rapper.
In a statement issued via Instagram page, the LA office said “If the conduct depicted occurred in 2016, unfortunately, we would be unable to charge as the conduct occurred beyond the timeline where a crime of assault can be prosecuted”. The office added that law enforcement hasn’t presented any case related to the attack depicted in the video against Diddy. The Los Angeles Attorney’s office, however, urged victims and witnesses to present their reports to law enforcement or seek support from the Bureau of Victims Services.
