The
producer–full
name
Sean
Combs–was
sued
in
federal
court
by
Cassie
on
Thursday,
according
to
reports
from

The
New
York
Times.
In
her
lawsuit,
she
accuses
her
ex-boyfriend
of
rape
and
repeated
physical
abuse
over
approximately
a
decade.

In
the
suit,
Cassie–full
name
Casandra
Ventura–says
that
Diddy
began
a
pattern
of
control
and
abuse
not
long
after
she
met
him
in
2005
when
she
was
just
19
years
old.
Her
accusations
included
Combs
plying
her
with
drugs,
beating
her,
and
forcing
her
to
have
sex
with
a
succession
of
male
prostitutes
while
he
filmed
their
encounters.
More
than
a
decade
later,
in
2018,
the
suit
says
Combs
forced
his
way
into
her
home
and
raped
her
near
the
end
of
their
relationship.

“After
years
in
silence
and
darkness,”
Cassie
said
in
a
statement,
according
to
the
publication.
“I
am
finally
ready
to
tell
my
story,
and
to
speak
up
on
behalf
of
myself
and
for
the
benefit
of
other
women
who
face
violence
and
abuse
in
their
relationships.”

A
lawyer
for
Combs,
Ben
Brafman,
says
the
music
mogul
denies
all
of
the
allegations
being
leveraged
against
him.

“Mr.
Combs
vehemently
denies
these
offensive
and
outrageous
allegations,”
he
began.
“For
the
past
six
months,
Mr.
Combs
has
been
subjected
to
Ms.
Ventura’s
persistent
demand
of
$30
million,
under
the
threat
of
writing
a
damaging
book
about
their
relationship,
which
was
unequivocally
rejected
as
blatant
blackmail.
Despite
withdrawing
her
initial
threat,
Ms.
Ventura
has
now
resorted
to
filing
a
lawsuit
riddled
with
baseless
and
outrageous
lies,
aiming
to
tarnish
Mr.
Combs’s
reputation
and
seeking
a
payday.”

On
the
contrary,
Ventura’s
lawyer
says
her
ex
was
the
one
to
offer
money
to
stop
the
lawsuit.

“Mr.
Combs
offered
Ms.
Ventura
eight
figures
to
silence
her
and
prevent
the
filing
of
this
lawsuit,”
laywer
Douglas
Wigdor
said.
“She
rejected
his
efforts.”

While
naming
additional
defendants
in
the
suit,
the
court
papers
assert
that
others
who
worked
for
Diddy
helped
him
control
his
then-girlfriend,
threatening
her
with
things
like
suppressing
her
music
if
she
did
not
obey
his
orders.

In
an
interesting
part
of
the
suit,
Cassie
also
alleges
that
Diddy
retaliated
against
Kid
Cudi
after
learning
that
they
were
dating
in
2012
and
the
rapper
confirmed
the
validity
of
the
allegation
to

The
New
York
Times.

“In
one
incident
described
in
the
court
papers,
Ms.
Ventura
says
that
in
early
2012,
Mr.
Combs
grew
so
angry
about
her
dating
the
rapper
Kid
Cudi
that
he
said
he
would
blow
up
the
rapper’s
car.
