Video - Behind Closed Doors: Shocking Testimony of Cassie Ventura
Cassie Ventura participated in freak offs at nearly every one of Sean Combs’ homes and, most frequently, in hotels in New York, Miami, Los Angeles, Atlanta, Las Vegas, Ibiza, and Turks and Caicos, she told the jury. “After a freak off the room was pretty bad off,” she said. “Oil, candle wax all over the place.” The candles were used for lighting along with studio-type lights that gave the room a reddish hue, she testified. The jury saw a photo of Combs on a bed with a wad of cash in a room that was glowing with red light. Ventura said she remembered the smell in the room being “super pungent” from candles, body odor and urine. Ventura said Combs liked participants’ bodies “to be glistening” with baby oil. They would go through ten large-sized bottles at a time, she testified. Ventura told the jury that the freak offs fulfilled Combs’s alleged desire for voyeurism. She described in graphic detail what she said were “disgusting” acts. When the freak offs became more frequent, Ventura said she and Combs used an escort service to supply them with participants at locations across the country. Combs sat back in his chair listening to Ventura's testimony, with his mother and children seated in the second row behind him.
