-- Shares Facebook Twitter Reddit Email A new chapter in the Diddy saga has unfolded. The rapper and former CEO of Bad Boy Entertainment, known as Sean Combs, has felt the fallout of a bombshell lawsuit filed by his long-time ex-partner Cassie Ventura last year . While the lawsuit that alleged a decade of pervasive sexual assault, drugging and sex trafficking was settled a day after it was filed, the former music executive has been subject to a multitude of subsequent lawsuits detailing similar claims.
However, just last weekend, a video of Combs physically assaulting Ventura in 2016 was widely circulated. The video explicitly showed Ventura in the hallway of The InterContinental Hotel in Century City, Los Angeles. As she attempted to flee Combs, he followed her down the hallway and knocked her to the ground.
The video also showed Combs kicking Ventura and dragging her to the floor back to their room. While Ventura declined to comment on the video, her attorney said, “The gut-wrenching video has only further confirmed the disturbing and predatory behavior of Mr. Combs.
Words cannot express the courage and fortitude that Ms. Ventura has shown in coming forward to bring this to light."
