  Hey, hey everybody. This is Demia Avery
• 0:02
  of the Demia Avery Show. Thanks again
• 0:05
  for checking in with me on this Diddy
• 0:07
  Trial update. So, um, it's a couple of
• 0:10
  things that went on today, but I wanted
• 0:12
  to make sure that you guys were updated,
• 0:15
  especially with Cassie's mother's
• 0:17
  testimony. It was very important that
• 0:20
  she showed up. I thought that they were
• 0:22
  going to get her good, but it looks like
• 0:24
  uh the defense had a little bit of
• 0:26
  trouble um with her. So, I'm going to
• 0:30
  read what I found and um see what you
• 0:34
  guys think about how it worked out. So,
• 0:37
  anyway, here it goes. Prosecutor Oh,
• 0:40
  yeah. Don't forget to hit subscribe,
• 0:41
  like, and share. So, here we go.
• 0:43
  Prosecutor Emily Johnson asked Regina
• 0:45
  Ventura to identify Diddy in a photo and
• 0:49
  explain how she knew him. Uh Regina
• 0:52
  says, "He dated my daughter." Regina
• 0:54
  said she first met Combmes in 2006 when
• 0:57
  her daughter Cassie signed with Combmes
• 1:00
  record label, Bad Boy Records. Regina
• 1:02
  said when her daughter and Combmes
• 1:04
  started dating in New York City, she'd
• 1:06
  see her daughter about three or four
• 1:07
  times a year. When Cassie moved to
• 1:10
  California with Diddy, Regina said she
• 1:12
  saw her less frequently, usually around
• 1:14
  the holidays. It was harder to get to
• 1:17
  her. Regina Ventur said, um, prosecutors
• 1:20
  have said Combmes ran a criminal
• 1:22
  racketeering enterprise in which he and
• 1:24
  some in his inner circle coerced women
• 1:27
  into participating in drugfueled SMMEX
• 1:30
  performances he called freakoffs. Uh,
• 1:33
  Combmes has pleaded not guilty to
• 1:35
  charges that include racketeering,
• 1:37
  conspiracy, smex trafficking, and
• 1:39
  transportation to engage in
• 1:42
  uh, prostitution. Prosecutors have also
• 1:46
  said Regina Ventura can testify that in
• 1:49
  December 2011, Diddy demanded she pay
• 1:52
  him
• 1:53
  $20,000 for money he spent on her
• 1:56
  daughter after he learned she was
• 1:58
  romantically involved with Kid Cuy.
• 2:02
  Regina Ventura took out a loan and wired
• 2:05
  the money to Diddy. The money was wired
• 2:08
  back to her without explanation days
• 2:10
  later, the prosecution said. Defense
• 2:15
  attorney Mark Agnafilio argued she
• 2:18
  should not be allowed to say that in
• 2:19
  court as it could be prejuditial to
• 2:23
  Diddy, but the judge said Agnafilio
• 2:26
  could object to the testimony when it
• 2:28
  comes up and he deal with it. Then uh
• 2:31
  Regina
• 2:33
  Ventur, Cassy's mother, testified that
• 2:35
  her daughter emailed her in December
• 2:38
  2011 to say Diddy Combmes was
• 2:42
  threatening to release explicit SMMEX
• 2:44
  tapes of Cassie. This appears to mesh
• 2:47
  with Cassy's earlier testimony that
• 2:50
  Diddy threatened her in 2011 in December
• 2:53
  when he learned she was dating Scott
• 2:55
  Mscooti, also known as Rap Kid Cuddy.
• 2:58
  Oh, I didn't know that was his real
• 2:59
  name. Um, the email said, according to
• 3:03
  Regina Ventur, the threats that have
• 3:06
  been made towards me by Shan Puffy
• 3:09
  Combmes are that are that he is going to
• 3:12
  release two explicit SMEX tapes of me.
• 3:15
  One on Christmas Day, maybe before or
• 3:18
  right after, and another one sometime
• 3:21
  soon after that. He also said that he
• 3:23
  will be having someone hurt me and Scott
• 3:26
  Mscooty, that's Kid Cuy, physically. He
• 3:29
  made a point that it wouldn't be by
• 3:31
  hands. He actually said he'd be out of
• 3:34
  the country when it
• 3:36
  happened. Uh Regina Ventur said she felt
• 3:39
  physically sick when she read the email.
• 3:42
  The message was sent under an alias um
• 3:45
  quote Veronica
• 3:47
  Bang uh end quote. The mother said the
• 3:51
  email was also sent to one of Diddy's
• 3:54
  employees. Regina Ventur said, "I do not
• 3:57
  understand a lot of it. The SMMEX tapes
• 4:00
  threw me. I did not know the other
• 4:02
  person, but knew that he was going to
• 4:04
  try to hurt my daughter."
• 4:06
  Uh, Regina Ventur
• 4:08
  said, uh, remember this is what Cassie
• 4:12
  said last week about the threat that
• 4:14
  Diddy told me about videos that he had
• 4:16
  that he was going to release and that he
• 4:18
  was going to hurt Scott and I, she said,
• 4:20
  adding the videos he was referring to
• 4:22
  were a smeckual performances called
• 4:24
  Freakoffs. Cassie also testified Combmes
• 4:27
  told her kid Cuy's car will be blown up
• 4:30
  in his driveway before it happened.
• 4:32
  Cassie Ventur's moms says she wired
• 4:35
  money to Diddy because she was scared
• 4:37
  for her daughter's safety. Um, Regina
• 4:41
  said Diddy contacted her around the same
• 4:43
  time Cassie told her friends told
• 4:47
  Combmes threatened to release smeually
• 4:49
  explicit videos of her. Regina said
• 4:52
  Combmes told her he needed $20,000 to
• 4:55
  recoup money he had spent on Cassie.
• 4:58
  Regina said Combmes was angry her
• 5:01
  daughter was now in a relationship with
• 5:03
  Kid Cuddy. Regina said she and her
• 5:06
  husband took out an equity loan to
• 5:08
  obtain the $20,000 for Diddy. That's the
• 5:12
  only way we could get the money, she
• 5:14
  testified. Diddy's bookkeeper sent
• 5:16
  Regina Vento an email with wiring
• 5:19
  instructions, she said. So, we went to
• 5:21
  the credit union and then wired the
• 5:23
  money from her and her husband's account
• 5:25
  to to the bad boy account. Okay. Well,
• 5:28
  she did that to the bad boy account. I
• 5:30
  think that's where that Rico comes from
• 5:32
  because he's mixing his personal stuff
• 5:34
  to that business account. But, okay, I'm
• 5:36
  going further. Uh, Regina Ventur said,
• 5:39
  "Did it
• 5:40
  uh she did it because she was scared
• 5:43
  about her daughter's safety." She said
• 5:45
  about four or five days later, the money
• 5:48
  was returned to her account, but she did
• 5:50
  not have any communications with Diddy
• 5:52
  about it. Um, so it goes on to say the
• 5:55
  jury sees photos of Cassy's mother took
• 5:59
  of her following
• 6:01
  following
• 6:04
  beating. Oh, following some beating. So,
• 6:07
  she had some photos, I guess, some
• 6:09
  photos in there that um showed that
• 6:11
  Cassie had been beating and had uh Diddy
• 6:14
  had physically assaulted her. Um, Regina
• 6:18
  said she testified that she took these
• 6:20
  photos to keep the evidence of keep for
• 6:23
  evidence, I guess, for later. She was
• 6:25
  bruised and I wanted to make sure that
• 6:27
  we memorialized it. Regina said her
• 6:30
  daughter told her at the time that she
• 6:32
  was beaten by Diddy. Um, these photos
• 6:35
  were admitted into evidence during
• 6:37
  Cassie Ventur's testimony. Uh, Regina
• 6:40
  said December 2011 was the first time
• 6:43
  her daughter told her about Diddy being
• 6:45
  physical with her. Regina testified
• 6:49
  about a time prior to that when she read
• 6:52
  a blind item about a celebrity getting
• 6:54
  beat up in a car with no names included.
• 6:57
  She said she asked her daughter if that
• 6:59
  was about her. Cassie told her it wasn't
• 7:01
  her.
• 7:03
  Um um Regina Ventura says she visited
• 7:08
  Cassie and Diddy in LA in 2016 in August
• 7:11
  for her her daughter's 30th birthday.
• 7:14
  She and Combmes got into a bitter
• 7:16
  argument outside of Cassie's apartment
• 7:18
  building and Combmes stole Cassie's
• 7:20
  phone. Regina said Regina said um we
• 7:24
  were arguing about the phone. I wanted
• 7:26
  the phone back and he was holding it.
• 7:28
  She said one of Comb's security guards
• 7:31
  was standing between them. She said, "I
• 7:32
  was yelling, screaming, and trying to
• 7:34
  hit him." She said, "But said, but was
• 7:37
  unable
• 7:38
  to." Um, Regina Vtoriz said Diddy
• 7:41
  eventually gave her the phone, but then
• 7:43
  he took Cassie's car.
• 7:46
  Um, and that was really it. It says the
• 7:50
  defense attorneys did not cross-examine
• 7:52
  her. He said he did not have any
• 7:55
  questions for her.
• 7:57
  So that was it for
• 7:59
  um the defense and of Cassie's mother.
• 8:03
  So it's interesting how they had
• 8:06
  absolutely no questions for her. So
• 8:09
  that's it you guys. I'm going see if I
• 8:11
  can get another video of some other uh
• 8:13
  testimonies today, but I talk to you
• 8:15
  guys later. All right. Bye.
