The federal sex trafficking trial against Sean “Diddy” Combs continues to make headlines as explosive testimony and newly released evidence paint a disturbing picture of alleged abuse.
Last week, singer Cassie Ventura, Diddy’s former partner, took the stand for four emotionally charged days, recounting in graphic detail how the music mogul allegedly physically abused her throughout their relationship.
Photos of Cassie’s Alleged Injuries Entered as Evidence
As part of her testimony, multiple photos were submitted into evidence, reportedly showing the injuries Cassie claims she sustained at Diddy’s hands. The images are striking—and deeply unsettling.
Swollen, Busted Lip
In one chilling photo, Cassie is seen with a visibly swollen and injured lip. Wearing a hoodie and concealing her eyes with oversized sunglasses, she appears to have taken the selfie to document the aftermath of an alleged violent incident.
Deep Gash Above the Eyebrow
Another image shows a severe cut above her left eyebrow, with clear signs of bleeding, bruising, and open flesh. The raw nature of the wound suggests it had been sustained recently at the time the photo was taken.
Eyebrow Injury in Healing Stage
A separate photo appears to document the same eyebrow wound during its healing process. Though still visible, the injury seems less inflamed, supporting her claim of ongoing abuse over time.
Bruises on Back and Shoulder
Perhaps the most revealing photo shows Cassie from behind, with her shirt removed and her back turned toward the camera. A large, dark bruise is visible on her left buttock, with additional bruising on her left shoulder blade—injuries she says were the result of Diddy’s violence.
Other Witnesses Corroborate Cassie’s Claims
Cassie’s powerful testimony hasn’t stood alone. Former Danity Kane member Dawn Richard, who was signed to Diddy’s Bad Boy label, also took the stand, telling jurors she witnessed Diddy becoming aggressive with Cassie.
Additionally, Kerry Morgan, a close friend of Cassie during the time of the alleged abuse, provided testimony stating she too saw Diddy physically harm Cassie on more than one occasion.
The Trial’s Impact and Public Response
The court proceedings have triggered a media firestorm, with social media flooded by reactions to the disturbing revelations. Photos of Cassie’s injuries have gone viral, sparking conversations about abuse in the music industry, power dynamics in celebrity relationships, and the importance of believing survivors.
Diddy has denied all allegations and continues to maintain his innocence as the trial moves forward. His legal team has challenged the authenticity of the images and the motivations behind the testimonies.
What’s Next in the Trial?
With the trial still ongoing, more witnesses are expected to be called, and additional evidence may be revealed. Observers anticipate that the case could take weeks, if not months, to conclude—potentially setting a historic precedent in how the entertainment industry handles abuse and trafficking allegations.
