Sean “Diddy” Combs and Casandra “Cassie” Ventura’s private — and sometimes explicit — text messages were released publicly on Friday after many of them were read aloud during the Bad Boy Records founder’s sex-trafficking trial earlier in the week.
The texts have been entered as public evidence exhibits, which means anyone can read them.
And while a lot of the exchanges shared in the 162 pages of legal documents appear harmless, there are others that are more sordid.
In one of the text messages obtained by Page Six via Combs’ legal team, Ventura, 38, admitted there were “a lot of d–ks, a lot of partying” at an unidentified gathering.
In another particular text, The “I’ll Be Missing You” rapper, 55, wrote that he was going to “eat that p—y.”
In less shocking messages, Ventura could be seen accusing Combs of treating her like a “sidepiece” and Combs telling Venture to reach out after she got “[herself] together.”
Of course, a lot of these text messages were revealed during proceedings over the last several days. One message in particular, which was sent in 2017, showed Ventura telling Combs she was “too excited” about one of their upcoming “freak-offs.”
She also messaged Combs about forgetting an iPad — which she testified they used to record the sex marathons.
Combs even texted Ventura to “have fun, impress me” when she was on her way to a sex shop to get supplies for a “freak-off,” jurors learned.
During the pregnant singer’s four grueling days on the stand, Combs’ attorney Anna Estevao asked the “Me & U” singer to read some of the texts she sent the rapper during their relationship, which took place from 2007 to 2018.
“I can’t wait to stare at some big black d–k,” a text Ventura wrote to Combs on Aug. 7, 2009, read.
Another — in which Ventura graphically described what she couldn’t “wait” for her then-boyfriend to do to her — was so disturbing that the singer asked the judge for a break.
After Ventura completed her testimony, her husband, Alex Fine, released a powerful statement.
“Over the past five days, the world has gotten to witness the strength and bravery of my wife freeing herself of her past,” Fine, who was in court supporting his wife all week, said in his statement read by attorney Douglas Wigdor on Friday.
“I have felt so many things sitting there. I have felt tremendous pride and overwhelming love for Cass. I have felt profound anger that she has been subjected to sitting in front of a person who tried to break her.”
Fine then called out Combs and “all of those who helped him along the way.”
“Please know this: You did not. You did not break her spirit, nor her smile, that lights up every room. You did not break the soul of a mother who gives the best hugs and plays the silliest games with our little girls. You did not break the woman who has made me a better man.”
“Cassie saved Cassie. She alone broke free from abuse, coercion, violence and threats. She did the work of fighting the demons that only a demon himself could have done to her,” he concluded.
Combs is accused of trafficking women for sex during the “freak-offs” and other serious crimes. He faces up to life in prison if convicted, and has pleaded not guilty to his charges.
