In a shocking revelation during Sean "Diddy" Combs' ongoing federal trial, singer Dawn Richard testified that she witnessed Combs physically assault his then-girlfriend, Casandra "Cassie" Ventura, during a dinner attended by music industry heavyweights, including Usher, Ne-Yo, and former Interscope Records CEO Jimmy Iovine.
Richard recounted the 2010 incident, stating that Combs "hissed" at Ventura before punching her in the stomach, causing her to double over in pain.
Despite the presence of prominent figures, no one intervened, and the dinner continued as if nothing had happened.
This testimony adds to a series of allegations against Combs, who faces charges including sex trafficking and racketeering.
Richard's account aligns with previous claims made by Ventura, who has accused Combs of years of abuse.
The presence of high-profile witnesses who allegedly remained silent raises questions about accountability and the culture of complicity in the entertainment industry.
