Sean “Diddy” Combs’ legal team shared private messages from Cassie Ventura in court this week, claiming the texts show their relationship was consensual. The trial, which began earlier this year, centers on serious charges against Diddy, including trafficking, racketeering, and prostitution.
During the court session on Tuesday, June 17, the defense showed jurors a text from Cassie to Diddy that read, “I wish we could have freaked off before you left,” sent during a Father’s Day exchange. In the same conversation, Cassie told Diddy, “I can’t wait until we have a baby.”
Diddy’s lawyers argued that these texts prove Cassie’s involvement in their sexual relationship was voluntary. The term “freak offs” has been used to describe drug-fueled sexual encounters that Cassie has accused Diddy of forcing her into.
The defense also highlighted a message from a male escort who once joked about Diddy and Cassie’s sex life, texting, “I need rest, you guys are rabbits LOL.”
Despite these claims, Cassie has testified that she suffered physical, emotional, and sexual abuse during their long relationship. The case continues, with both sides presenting very different stories about what happened behind closed doors.
