Shocking surveillance video from 2016 shows Sean “Diddy” Combs throwing his then-girlfriend Cassie Ventura to the floor and kicking her twice.
In the video, Combs is seen wearing only a towel while running down a hotel hallway toward an elevator, where Cassie was trying to escape.
He grabbed Cassie and threw her to the floor, then kicked her twice before dragging her down the hall.
Another angle of the video shows Cassie return to the elevator and pick up the hotel phone on the wall.
Combs approached her and appeared to shove her into a corner.
The videos were obtained by CNN.
Cassie’s attorney, Douglas H. Wigdor, responded to the videos, writing: “The gut-wrenching video has only further confirmed the disturbing and predatory behavior of Mr. Combs. Words cannot express the courage and fortitude that Ms. Ventura has shown in coming forward to bring this to light.”
Combs quickly settled a multi-million dollar lawsuit with Cassie in November 2023.
Since then, he has been sued for sexual harassment by half a dozen women and one male.
