In court this week, a chilling audio recording of Cassie Ventura was made public—one in which she threatens to kill a man over a video tied to one of Sean “Diddy” Combs’s now-infamous “freak-offs.”
“I’m going to kill you,” Cassie is heard saying in the tape. “You don’t understand. I don’t give a f–k and I never killed anybody in my life, but I will kill you.”
Her voice is frantic, furious, and unrelenting.
“If you don’t show me right now I will kill you, and I will hide you and I will cut you up and put you in the f–king dirt.”
And finally:
“I’m gonna kill you—and then [Diddy’s] gonna kill you.”
The audio was played during cross-examination last month, as part of Diddy’s federal sex trafficking trial. The defense used the tape to argue that Cassie, 38, was a willing participant in the “freak-offs”—drug-fueled sex marathons allegedly involving sex workers, control, and filming—rather than a coerced victim.
But that framing ignores what Cassie testified under oath: that she confronted the man because Diddy ordered her to. And the audio wasn’t a confession. It was evidence.

Cassie Ventura’s Rage Is on Tape—But So Is Diddy’s Control
According to her testimony, Cassie said she made the recording herself. The man she was threatening allegedly had a video of one of Diddy’s freak-offs, and she’d been told by Combs “not to let him out of her sight.”
It’s the same pattern multiple accusers have laid out across civil and criminal filings: Diddy gave the commands. Cassie carried them out. Under his watch, she wasn’t just a girlfriend—she was an extension of his will.
This is what grooming and coercive control can look like. Messy. Loud. And yes, terrifying. But it’s also not unusual in abusive systems. Rage doesn’t make her a villain—it reveals the pressure cooker she lived in.
As one trauma expert wrote during the early MeToo era:
“When you are being hurt in silence, sometimes the only voice you find is the one that screams.”
Diddy’s voice—still echoing
This isn’t the only disturbing audio played at trial. Last week, a separate recording surfaced: a voice memo Diddy allegedly sent to a Jane Doe ex-partner in March 2023.
“Eh, baby. It’s all good, get your rest,” Diddy says in the memo. “You are the crack pipe. Should I call you CP?”
It’s not just unsettling. It’s grotesque—and it echoes the world described by multiple women: one of control, degradation, surveillance, and addiction-as-weapon.
Yet in court, his team keeps pivoting: pointing fingers back at his accusers, attempting to frame them as unstable, violent, or complicit.
But the question remains: who created the conditions for these tapes to exist at all?
