Cassie Ventura Tried To Flee Balcony After Diddy Threatened Her With Explicit Tapes, Stylist Testifies

Cassie Ventura once tried to flee a hotel balcony to escape Diddy after he tracked her down and threatened to leak explicit tapes, according to testimony in his ongoing federal trial.

Celebrity stylist Deonte Nash told a jury that in 2013, Ventura was so terrified after learning Diddy had found her hiding at a hotel that she attempted to climb over a balcony to get away.  

“She was going to climb over the balcony,” Nash testified. “She started heading that way.” He added, “It wasn’t the first floor.”

Nash said the two had gone to the hotel after Diddy kicked them out of his home. But when Diddy arrived at the hotel, Ventura panicked.

Nash testified that he managed to sneak Ventura out through a side door before she could act on her desperation.

According to Nash, Diddy repeatedly used the threat of releasing sex tapes—referred to in court as “freak-off” videos—as a tool to manipulate and intimidate Ventura.

Diddy would threaten to send the tapes to her parents’ workplaces “to get them fired.” He also allegedly told Ventura he was “the only one who could protect her.”

Nash also testified that Ventura confided in him about being pressured to attend sex parties and said she didn’t want to participate.

He claimed Diddy would insult her with words like “s###” and “ho” when she resisted.

The stylist described a pattern of abuse and control that spanned years, including threats to Ventura’s career and family, as well as physical and emotional intimidation.

Cassie Ventura, who recently testified for nearly a week in Diddy’s federal sex trafficking and racketeering trial, reportedly welcomed her third child—a baby boy with husband Alex Fine—on Tuesday (May 27). The couple also shares two daughters, Frankie, 5, and Sunny, 3.
