After testifying for two days that Sean Combs forced her into sexual encounters with male prostitutes under threat of violence and reputational harm, Cassie Ventura was confronted on cross-examination by messages that appeared to show her reluctance was only because she wanted more from the relationship.

R&B singer Cassie delved into text messages with her ex-boyfriend Sean “Diddy” Combs as she resumed testifying in his sex trafficking trial Friday, saying she told him “I'm not a rag doll. I'm somebody's child" after he beat her at a Los Angeles hotel in 2016.
