Today, Day 13 of Sean “Diddy” Combs’ trial resumed in court. Mia, his former assistant and alleged victim, was testified for the court yesterday, and she is scheduled to remain so until today.
The music mogul is currently facing a number of serious charges, including racketeering conspiracy, forced sex trafficking, fraud or coercion, and prostitution transportation.
He was detained in September, and he categorically refutes all the allegations made against him. Since his arrest, he has been imprisoned, and several bail applications have been rejected.
Mia and Combs claim that he repeatedly assaulted her on day 12 of the trial, and that he describes him as an abusive and controlling boss.
Why does Mia use a pseudonym to testify?
Due to the seriousness of the allegations and the alleged retaliation from Combs, testimony of Mia is presented under a pseudonym.
Mia is “scared into silence.”
Madison Smyser, an assistant U.S. attorney, inquired about Mia’s earlier silence regarding the sexual assaults.
She said, “I didn’t know that you had to tell me the bad things that happened to me if nobody else noticed,” before calling it “the most shameful thing of my life.” She explained that she is speaking right now because “these things continue to happen to people when you’re scared into silence.”
testimony of Mia
Mia also testified about the ominous atmosphere in Diddy’s home that led to the alleged 2011 burglary at Kid Cudi’s home. After Combs learned that the rapper had a romantic relationship with Cassie, it occurred.
Combs has entered a not-guilty plea on charges of transportation for prostitution, racketeering, and sex trafficking. Although his defense team has acknowledged that he acted violently toward Ventura, his lawyer insists that he is innocent on all charges that carry the possibility of a life sentence.
recap of day 12
