Cassie Ventura took the witness stand on Wednesday, providing an emotional and raw testimony about the lasting physical toll the “Freak-Offs” with her ex, Sean “Diddy” Combs, took on her body

Cassie breathed in deeply several times as if mustering up the strength to keep her composure while testifying — a star turn that has kept the jury riveted. When she first entered the courtroom, Diddy had whipped around in his chair to look at her.

The rapper is currently on trial for sex trafficking, racketeering, and transportation to engage in prostitution.
