- The trial follows Combs' September 2024 arrest on charges of coercing women into drugged sex parties called 'freak-offs' and maintaining a deviant empire of exploitation.
- R&B singer Cassie, legally Casandra Ventura, sued Combs in 2023 alleging years of abuse, supported by a 2016 Los Angeles hotel surveillance video showing him assaulting her.
- Former hotel security officer Israel Florez testified about witnessing Combs assault Cassie, describing Combs as having a 'devilish stare' and refusing a bribe with 'I don't want your money.'
- If convicted, Combs could face 15 years to life in prison, while his attorneys argue acts were consensual and accusers seek money; Cassie's testimony may influence the trial’s outcome.
