Sean Diddy Combs’ ex-partner Cassie Ventura to testify using her name

Troubles continue to mount for disgraced rapper Sean Diddy Combs as his former partner Casandra Cassie Ventura is prepared to testify against him.

What’s more? She will be using her name to do so. In a motion filed on Friday, April 4, prosecutors state that “Victim-1” would not be testifying anonymously during Combs’ upcoming trial, where he faces charges of racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking and transportation to engage in prostitution. As per People, Ventura, 38, is Victim-1 and that she will be testifying in the trial. “She is prepared to testify under her own name”, the filing states. “Victim-2, Victim-3, and Victim-4 have asked that their identities not be revealed to the press or the public”. Prosecutors requested that the anonymous victims “be referred to at trial using only pseudonyms” and for the court to require the defence not to share identifying details about them. “This case has already received an exceptional amount of media coverage, which will presumably only increase as trial proceeds”, prosecutors state. 

“Permitting these measures will prevent unnecessary public disclosure of the victims’ identities, and the harassment from the media and others, undue embarrassment, and other adverse consequences that would almost certainly follow if these women were forced to reveal their true names publicly at trial”.
