On Friday, Sean Combs’ former assistant, testifying under the pseudonym “Mia” to protect her identity, continued her testimony.
On Thursday, she described Combs as an abusive and controlling employer who assaulted her multiple times, including an alleged rape. On Friday, she testified that Combs used these attacks to blackmail her. The defense challenged her with positive social media posts she made about Combs during the alleged abuse, questioning their consistency with her claims.
Mia also recounted witnessing Combs violently assault Cassie Ventura, causing her head to bleed, and described a tense atmosphere in Combs’s home before his alleged 2011 break-in at Scott Mescudi’s (Kid Cudi) residence, triggered by Mescudi’s relationship with Ventura.

On cross-exam, atty Brian Steel challenged "Mia" with her social media posts to question if Sean Combs traumatized her as described in direct exam. https://t.co/0ZrofB5TyR pic.twitter.com/dJRomYmrF4
Combs has pleaded not guilty to charges of sex trafficking, racketeering conspiracy, and transportation for prostitution, which could lead to life in prison if he’s convicted. While his defense acknowledges his violence toward Ventura, they argue it doesn’t support the criminal charges. Combs denies any sexual assault allegations.
According to The Washington Post, the trial week concluded with texts revealing Mia’s despair when her employment with Combs ended in December 2016. “I’m going to kill myself — my life is over,” she wrote. Defense attorney Brian Steel questioned why losing a job she described as torturous wasn’t a relief. Mia explained that, after eight years of being immersed in Combs’s world 24/7, leaving felt devastating at the time, though she now sees it differently.
