But "Jane" said Combs didn't make it easy for her to leave him. "He would offer a breakup," she said on the stand. "And then a week later he would be persistent, blow up my phone.

The second witness using a pseudonym said on the stand that she "currently" loves Combs, even after telling her story of a brutal beating at his hands just one year ago.

And after her sexual performances were complete, she pampered him, including giving him foot rubs and turning on his ...

On Friday the prosecution played three voice notes Combs sent his then-girlfriend -- testifying anonymously -- over the course of their three-year relationship. On Monday, she read out loud the texts she sent him after Cassie Ventura filed suit against him in 2023. "I feel like I'm reading my own sexual trauma," "Jane" wrote. "It makes me sick how three pages, word for word, is exactly my experience and my anguish." Plus, MSNBC leg...

A second anonymous witness testified that Combs pushed her to perform with a succession of commercial sex workers. In one text message she sent to him she wrote, "I don't want to play this role in your life anymore. It's dark, sleazy, and makes me feel disgusted with myself. I feel it's the only reason you have me around and why you pay for the house. I don't want to feel obligated to perform these nights with you in fear of losing...

The defense continued hammering "Mia," who worked as Sean Combs's assistant and is now testifying, under a pseudonym. She testified that she told no one about her assault allegations until June of 2024 because she was "terrified and brainwashed." Defense attorney Brian Steel entered texts between Combs and "Mia" into evidence, texts where she reached out to him to offer support and love, including one sent just weeks before Cassie ...

The prosecution showed texts sent by "Mia" -- a former personal assistant of Combs testifying under a pseudonym -- where she told his chief of staff that she was having "night terrors" about him. But the defense left binders of printed out Instagram posts on the jurors' chairs. In most of them "Mia" praised her boss and showed off a party-heavy, globe-trotting lifestyle.

Combs's defense team objected to prosecution questions about fingerprint evidence from Kid Cudi's Hollywood Hills home that was destroyed in the custody of the LAPD. "They were suggesting to this jury that someone in this courtroom had something to do with the improper and suspicious destruction of these fingerprint cards and that's outrageous," said defense attorney Marc Agnifilo.
