Diddy's Assistant Drops BOMBSHELL: Sperm Count Pills?!

A member of Sean “Diddy” Combs’ inner circle is providing insight into his travel incidentals.

During the ongoing trial of a business tycoon on charges of racketeering, sex trafficking, and coercion, his former assistant, David James, appeared as a witness for the second time on May 20th. On this occasion, he shared the items typically found in Combs’ travel bag.

According to NBC News, who was present in the courtroom, James testified that he often carried between $10,000 and sometimes a larger amount in cash when traveling with Combs. He also mentioned that Combs had approximately 25 to 30 unspecified medication bottles in his travel bag, along with Viagra, Tylenol, Advil, water pills, and drugs to boost sperm production.

In his subsequent statements, he mentioned finding ecstasy and Percocet pills among Combs’ travel possessions, which he observed the rapper consuming. Additionally, James described instances where Combs asked him to pay for items such as baby oil, Astroglide lubricant, and condoms in cash, so that Combs could repay him privately outside of company records for their trips.

Later, James revealed that he ultimately chose to leave his job at Combs’ company, after an incident in 2008 involving Suge Knight. According to reports, Combs and his companions were said to have obtained guns with the intention of confronting Knight, a former record executive. (It’s worth noting that Knight is currently serving time for voluntary manslaughter stemming from a fatal hit-and-run incident in 2015.)

James expressed a strong reaction when he said, “I felt deeply disturbed by it,” according to NBC News. This incident marked the first time, serving as his assistant, that he came to understand his life was at risk. He shared that he wished to depart, but wanted to provide a six-month notice in order to train the next assistant.

During his May 20th testimony, James mentioned a legal document called a proffer, which prevents witnesses from facing prosecution for statements made in court. He also recalled instances where he felt his job was at risk, as Combs’ security team would often warn him, “You know what rhymes with tired? Fired.” (Translation: You know what word sounds like ‘tired’ but means ‘fired’? They would tell him that.)

The following day, James provided testimony, which followed Special Agent Yasin Binda’s previous day’s disclosure of photographs showing Combs’ hotel room during his September arrest, as overseen by Homeland Security.

In the images presented to the court by Binda, Combs’ bathroom was found to contain five baby oil bottles inside the bathtub, along with two more lubricant bottles stored in Ziploc bags. Additionally, there were two bags filled with a pink powdery substance and $9,000 in cash.

As a devoted follower, I would express it as: In court, when I, David James, testified, I shared that Sean “Diddy” Combs’ overnight bag usually contained a sum of around $10,000 in cash. Additionally, it held common pain relievers such as Advil and Tylenol, erectile dysfunction medication like Viagra, and pills intended to boost sperm count.

Additionally, James claimed that Combs was found with both Percocet and Ecstasy in his possession, an allegation backed up by his former assistant who claimed to have personally observed Combs taking these substances.

The Prosecution provided a peek into the rapper’s room at the Park Hyatt Hotel in New York, where he was apprehended on September 16th.

The images, captured by Special Agent Yasin Binda from Homeland Security, who presented the evidence, showed baby oil and Astroglide lubricant contained within Ziploc bags, five bottles of baby oil in the bathtub, two additional bottles of lubricant stored in a drawer, as well as two bags filled with a powdery material, and $9,000 in cash.

As per Binda’s findings, the substances discovered within the prescription container proved to be both ketamine and a blend of ketamine and MDMA when tested.

On May 19, a close friend of Cassie Ventura’s provided testimony stating that she had observed Sean Combs (also known as Puff Daddy or Diddy) physically abusing Ventura during their vacation in Jamaica, and also at a rental property in the Hollywood Hills.

Kerry Morgan stated that her 17-year friendship with Ventura ended following an attack by Combs on her at his apartment in 2018. According to NBC News, this occurred while they were listening to music together. Combs allegedly approached from behind and choked her, leaving fingerprints on her neck, and struck her on the head with a wooden hanger near her right ear. At the time of the incident, Cassie was in the bathroom.

In Morgan’s explanation, it was revealed that she had retained a lawyer, yet chose not to initiate a court case. Moreover, she consented to the terms of a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) upon receiving a payment of $30,000 in settlement.

According to Morgan’s testimony, it has been silent between us since then. The last conversation I had with Sean was on the night of the incident, and the last time I encountered Cassie was when I put my signature on the Non-Disclosure Agreement.

Additionally, during her testimony, Morgan stated that she had already moved forward in her personal life, but had been compelled by a court order from the government to appear.

She stated that she suggested Ventura should part ways with Combs, but she mentioned that due to her employment, her vehicle, and her living arrangements, she was unable to do so.

During questioning from lawyer Marc Agnifilo, Morgan stated that she no longer communicated with Ventura as he failed to offer support following the 2018 event. Furthermore, she emphasized that she would not tolerate any form of physical violence.

Dawn Richard, a former member of the group Danity Kane, declared on May 16th that she observed Ventura chasing his ex-girlfriend with a skillet filled with eggs back in 2009.

Downstairs, he stormed in, visibly upset, asking where on earth his eggs were and accusing Cassie of always making mistakes. Richard stated this during court proceedings as detailed in NBC News’ report. He then approached the skillet containing the eggs, intending to strike her head, which caused her to fall to the floor.

Ventura “went into the fetal position,” Richard continued, “literally trying to hide her head.”

During “freak offs,” Combs’ preferred baby oil was never laced with any drugs, as Ventura stated on May 15th.

In October 2024, a legal action was initiated accusing Combs of adulterating the oil with GHB, a substance frequently known as the ‘date rape drug’.

During defense questioning on May 15, Ventura stated that Combs tended to become envious and react in a volatile manner when she used drugs with others instead of himself.

She mentioned that Combs had previously overdosed on painkillers. When questioned by defense attorney Anna Estevao about whether her former partner’s mood changes could be linked to medication, Ventura replied that “they were indeed a factor.

Previously today, I asked her opinion on whether Combs had a drug addiction problem. She responded by saying, “In my view, he was indeed an addict.

Her response affirmed that Combs did display signs of anger or volatility during his withdrawal period.

“I’m not a doctor,” Ventura said, but “coming off of certain pills he would be pretty irritated.”

During Ventura’s time on the witness stand on May 15th, Judge Arun Subramanian paused the proceedings as Combs’ defense presented explicit emails and texts during their cross-examination.

As a devoted supporter recounting the events, when Defense Counsel Estevao showcased sexually suggestive communications exchanged between the previous pair from 2009 to demonstrate their consenting relationship, the prosecution raised an objection, which the judge upheld.

After hearing the objection, Ventura was observed talking quietly to the judge, prompting the judge to unexpectedly call for a 10-minute recess.

Before the jury’s arrival, a lively disagreement arose between the prosecution and defense as the lead defense lawyer, Marc Agniflio, insisted on presenting additional texts in the courtroom. However, the judge pointed out that certain messages contravened federal evidence guidelines.

On the other hand, several pieces of evidence were allowed, containing explicit accounts of Combs and Ventura discussing their intimate relationships.

On May 15th, Ventura admitted that she couldn’t specify the exact number, but estimated that she had engaged in “hundreds” of such incidents alongside Combs. (In this context, ‘freak offs’ seems to refer to a certain action or activity, though it isn’t explicitly defined in the original sentence.)

She claimed that her former partner secretly recorded their intimate acts with the intention of using them for extortion. She stated that he threatened to disclose these recordings, potentially damaging her professional reputation.

Ventura explained that he often brought up those issues when he was troubled by something, and it was a routine occurrence. However, he confessed his concerns about his job and family, as the situation was humiliating and distressing. He described it as awful and repulsive, something no one should subject anyone else to.

On May 14th, Ventura testified that she received a $20 million settlement from her former boyfriend, Combs, following a lawsuit she filed against him in November 2023. The lawsuit claimed that he had sexually assaulted and physically abused her throughout their relationship.

Testifying about their 2018 dinner at a Malibu restaurant with Combs, Ventura claimed he had been “very kind” to her. Later that night, she alleged that he sexually assaulted her, despite the fact that she was already in a relationship with Alex Fine, whom she later married in 2019.

She testified, “I entered the house, then he followed and violently assaulted me on the living room carpet.” All I recall is sobbing and repeatedly protesting, yet it happened swiftly. His eyes seemed dark, unfamiliar; it was as if a part of me was being stolen from me.

Combs’ legal team has repeatedly stated that he was not involved in any instances of unwanted sexual acts, and that the individuals who allege sex offenses against him had given their consent for any sexual activities they were involved in.

Ventura stated that they had consensual sexual encounters with Combs on another occasion following the alleged assault. When questioned about her decision to engage in sexual activity again with Combs, she explained, “You can’t simply switch off feelings like that. I still held a positive image of who he was as an individual.

In late 2011, I found myself heartbroken when my idol, Kid Cudi (a.k.a Scott Mescudi), and Ventura parted ways. According to her, it was all due to a chilling threat from Diddy: if anything happened to Scott’s car, it would be “blown up.” As an ardent fan, I couldn’t help but feel the shockwaves of this unexpected turn of events.

Ventura stated before the court that there was excessive risk and unpredictability regarding the consequences if they kept meeting, given the circumstances. Sean had warned that he intended harm towards them both.

Departures from Ventura caused her to develop urinary tract infections, mouth ulcers, and stomach problems, as she testified on May 14.

During her testimony in court, Ventura explained that there were several consecutive instances where we were engaging in what she referred to as ‘intense conflicts’. On some occasions, I even had these intense conflicts while dealing with an infection. I attempted to clear it up by rinsing it with water. Eventually, the antibiotic CIPRO became ineffective. It was a chaotic and difficult situation.

She continued, “It was really painful for a long time. I can’t believe I actually dealt with that.”

In one of the text conversations between Ventura and Combs presented in court, it was indicated that Ventura mentioned having ulcers on her tongue. His response was, “I’m sorry.

On the second day of his testimony, Ventura described the 2016 hotel assault that had been recorded on CCTV cameras and broadcasted by CNN in May 2024.

She stated that Combs hurled a vase at her following his effort to exit the Intercontinental Hotel prematurely, prior to physically attacking her.

On the stand on May 14th, Ventura recalled the vase moving towards him. It struck the wall instead of hitting him. Someone was shouting at him, but he isn’t certain what they were saying, although it wasn’t his name that he believes they used.

However, she said that Combs told her “that I wasn’t going to leave him, that I couldn’t.”

Immediately following the hotel incident, Ventura revealed that she attended the debut of her movie “The Perfect Match” with Combs, sporting bruises across her face and body. To conceal her swollen eye and split lip, she had to apply thick makeup. Moreover, she mentioned that she switched her outfit due to numerous bruises on her legs.

On May 13, the singer stated under oath that Diddy assaulted her in the corridor of a Los Angeles hotel back in March 2016, as he was furious over her exit from a “tiff.” (It was CNN who published footage of the incident in 2024. The defense failed to have this video removed as evidence.)

Ventura explained to the court that he decided to depart. As I stepped out, Sean accompanied me into the corridor, grabbed me forcefully, pushed me down, kicked me, and dragged me back to the room before taking my belongings.

Initially, she didn’t wish to join, but she had a film premiere approaching within a few days and felt compelled to keep Combs satisfied. She put it this way: “If I could make him happy by doing something out of the ordinary,” Ventura said, “then my event would go off without a hitch.

After he inflicted a black eye on her, she commented, “At that moment, all I could focus on was escaping safely. I had an important event approaching and I didn’t want anything to disrupt it.” When he shoved her into the hallway, Ventura explained, she remained on the ground because “I didn’t want him to cause any further harm than he had already inflicted.

Testified Ventura, she consumed alcohol and ecstasy during her initial sexual encounter with an escort in Combs’ presence. To endure the so-called “freak offs,” she confessed to using marijuana, ketamine, mushrooms, or whatever drug was popular at the time.

“I couldn’t imagine myself doing any of that without having some sort of buffer,” she said.

Occasionally, she’d retch violently during heated arguments, Ventura explained, and Combs urged me to keep going despite this.

She expressed to Combs that the actions labeled as “freak offs” left her feeling extremely bad about herself, even worthless, according to Ventura. However, he seemed to disregard her worries, acting indifferent instead.

Following an unusual incident, it’s plausible that baby oil would cover the entire hotel room, as testified by Ventura. If Combs had asked someone to wet the bed, there could potentially be urine stains on the sheets. Moreover, if she was menstruating during this time, Ventura suggested there might also be blood spots on the sheets and furniture.

Ventura stated that the experience left her feeling “deeply embarrassed.” She added, “It was revolting, it was over the line. I gagged, I didn’t want to be there, I found myself in a situation from which I struggled to escape.

According to Ventura, he found it appealing, which is why the event transpired. When asked by Emily A. Johnson, the prosecutor, why she didn’t object to Combs’ instructions in these instances, she explained that she felt it was clear that she didn’t want to comply with them because it wasn’t desirable.

On May 13th, Ventura stated that Combs instructed her and the other “freak off” participants to apply baby oil onto their bodies.

She stated in court that Sean preferred it hot and shiny,” she explained, “so we applied it every five minutes.

At the Montage Beverly Hills, during a surprising incident, Ventura claimed that Combs suggested she enter an inflatable pool filled with baby oil while she was still dressed in her clothing.

As a die-hard fan, I couldn’t help but make it happen when Sean Combs expressed his desire for something. I stood firm on my resolve, “If it mattered to him, that’s exactly what was going to transpire.” And let me tell you, we weren’t shy about our use of baby oil; we went through a whopping ten bottles, regular size!

Ventura disclosed to prosecutors on May 13 that during their ten-year relationship with Combs, which started a decade ago, he suggested incorporating voyeurism into their intimate activities. This initially involved her arranging for an escort and setting up the encounter so she could perform in front of Combs while another person was present.

Over time, I found myself immersed in staging these intriguing erotic shows, which Tupac infamously referred to as “freak offs.” These marathon events could stretch on for anything between 36 hours and four days, transforming them into my unconventional line of work.

She remembered, “I managed to arrange everything in the hotel room, including all the details. Initially, Sean organized it.

Ventura said that her “stomach churned” when he first proposed the experience.

She admitted she didn’t initially understand why it would arouse him, but she took on the task, she explained. She confessed to being puzzled, anxious, yet deeply affectionate towards him and eager to please him. It wasn’t something she desired or wished to repeat frequently, especially given its increased frequency, but her love for him drove her decisions.

She admitted, “At some point, I felt I didn’t have much of a choice.”

In their on-again, off-again relationship spanning from 2007 to 2018, Ventura claimed that Combs often displayed aggressive behavior towards her.

She confirmed to the jury that their disagreements were often intense, leading to acts of physical violence such as hitting her head, pushing her down, dragging her across the floor, and kicking her.

She noted that she frequently had noticeable injuries, mentioning, “I’d develop lumps on my forehead, have black and red eyes, and sport bruises covering my entire body.

On May 13, Ventura was set to testify following Daniel Philip, and Combs’ defense asked that she be positioned at the witness stand prior to the jury’s entrance, given her eighth-month pregnancy.

Defense attorney Marc Agnifilo stated to the judge, “I believe there’s a biased aspect,” implying that pregnancy holds a powerful, positive impact on people, often evoking feelings of empathy.

It was clear that Ventura’s defense team had failed with their initial motion, as they joined the case only after the jury had already been selected.

On one particular instance when Ventura didn’t immediately respond to Combs’ call, Philip testified on May 12 that Combs angrily hurled a bottle of liquor towards her, subsequently grabbed her by the hair and forced her into the bedroom. “She was shouting,” Philip recounted, and from another room, it sounded like he was hitting her. Philip also recalled hearing Combs say, “‘I order you to come here, you come here now, not later.’

Phillip said he was “terrified” and did not intervene.

He also stated that on another instance at the Essex House hotel in New York, it appeared to him that Combs was physically harming Ventura. “I distinctly heard her crying ‘I’m sorry, I’m sorry,’ someone seemed to be getting hit and pushed around within the room,” Philip explained. “Peeking around the corner, I observed Mr. Combs exiting the hotel naked, possibly with a towel wrapped around him.

Ventura exited the room and leaped onto Philip’s lap, as he stated. “She essentially tried to reassure me that ‘everything’s alright’ and ‘I’ll be fine,'” Philip added. “And I responded, ‘This is not acceptable and you need professional assistance.’

“I tried to explain to her that she was in real danger if she stayed with him,” Phillip said.

Under questioning from prosecutor Maureen Comey, Philip explained that he didn’t contact the police because he viewed Combs as a powerful figure, and there was a likelihood that, even if he had reported the matter, he could still have faced harm.

Daniel Philip, who claimed he was managing a male strip show at the time, testified that he was given a substantial sum of money to engage in sexual activities with Ventura, while Combs observed from Manhattan’s Gramercy Hotel in 2012. Philip stated that Combs wore a robe, a baseball cap, and a face covering, but he identified him by his voice.

Ventura compensated him and mentioned, “I’ll give you a tip when I depart,” according to Philip’s testimony. “Subsequently, we engaged in sexual activity, applied baby oil on each other for a few moments. [Combs] was found occupying a corner while masturbating.

Afterward, the witness continued, Ventura gave him “a couple of thousand more.”

Over the course of the following year, Philip claimed that both Ventura and Combs reached out to him frequently for similar experiences, which took place not just at various hotels but also at their residences in New York City. He alleged that on one or two occasions, Combs filmed him and Ventura during intimacy, and there were instances where Combs would join in and have sexual relations with Ventura while Philip was present.

In a 2023 lawsuit alleging sexual assault and physical abuse against her ex-partner, Ventura claimed that Combs compelled her into engaging in sexual acts with male escorts.

According to Florez’s testimony, Ventura appeared frightened. She was huddled in the corner with her hood on, shielding herself. Her face was hidden, and she seemed to avoid being in the open. A shattered flower vase lay nearby.

After Ventura departed from the hotel, Florez mentioned that she had a noticeable purple eye. Subsequently, once she was no longer around, Florez and the desk manager went up to the room to remind Combs of the “hotel regulations.” According to Florez, Combs believed the manager was using his phone to record him, and attempted to seize it. When Combs attempted to take Florez’s phone, Florez said he restrained Combs against a wall. In his testimony, Florez stated, “We informed him we were not recording him, and diffused the situation.

In court, prosecutors presented the slowed-down version of the surveillance video showing Combs seemingly striking, kicking, and pulling Ventura – a clip initially published by CNN in May 2024, which defense claimed was sped up to exaggerate the violence. Additionally, the jury watched footage that Florez recorded on his phone when he responded to a distress call on the sixth floor. The original allegation from the defense suggested this video was doctored to minimize the incident’s severity.

According to Florez, he chose not to contact the police immediately since Ventura refused to discuss what had occurred and only expressed a desire to depart.

Police Officer Israel Florez, based in Los Angeles, previously served as a security guard at the InterContinental Hotel. It was during this time that the incident involving Combs and Ventura occurred on March 5, 2016. In her opening statement, Geragos referred to the surveillance footage of the attack, which was initially made public by CNN in May 2024, as “compelling proof of domestic violence,” though it was not related to charges of sex trafficking, but rather infidelity uncovered on a cell phone.

On May 12th, Florez testified that he observed signs of a dispute on the day in question, and subsequently, Combs gave him a pile of cash in an attempt to persuade him to ignore the incident.

During questioning, Florez stated unequivocally that he understood Combs’ action as an attempt to offer him a bribe.

During her initial remarks, the defense lawyer Teny Geragos argued that the prosecution was attempting to redefine consensual sexual acts as instances of sex trafficking. However, she expressed confidence that their strategy would ultimately prove unsuccessful.

“Sean Combs is a complicated man,” she said, “but this is not a complicated case.”

The discussion here revolves around the private, intimate aspects of Sean Combs’ personal life, which are unrelated to his legitimate professional endeavors.

She informed the court that her client exhibited aggressive behavior, used drugs, and struggled with anger management problems. However, it’s important to note that during this trial, you might find him unpleasant or rude. Yet, he is not on trial for being unkind or obnoxious; those are not the charges against him.

Geragos stated, “The proof presented will portray an imperfect person, however, it won’t depict them as a racketeer, a sex trafficker, or someone involved in transporting for prostitution.

Assistant District Attorney Emily Johnson alleged that Defendant Combs orchestrated an extensive team of workers to perform unlawful activities, including lengthy “freak-outs,” as reported by NBC News correspondents present in the courtroom, who were privy to the federal indictment’s specifics.

She informed the court that on occasions he would refer to himself as a king, demanding special treatment to satisfy his whims. Also, she testified that he abused his business positions to coerce women into sexual acts with male escorts present. It was also revealed that he and his close associates ensured all his desires were met.

Johnson kicked off her case in front of the jury, portraying Combs as an over-sized personality who oversaw a criminal organization.

In an attempt to prove his accusations, Johnson claimed to the jury that Diddy (Combs), the founder of Bad Boys Record, was on the prowl for Ventura one evening following the news of her new romantic involvement with someone else. Johnson alleged that Combs had violently assaulted Ventura, punching her severely, kicking her in the back, and roughly tossing her around as if she were a piece of clothing.

He made a threat, saying that if she disobeyed him once more, he would publicize videos showing her engaging in intimate acts with male escorts – essentially, relics of the most embarrassing moments of her past.

The prosecutor alleged that Combs’ inner circle covered up “crime after crime.”

The presiding judge, Arun Subramanian, expressed his belief to the jury that the trial might finish as early as July 4th. He added that he anticipates wrapping up the trial by then, though there’s a chance it could extend beyond that date, but he doesn’t foresee this happening extensively.

On May 12, when the rap tycoon started his sex trafficking trial, his mother, Janice Combs, was there, as well as six of his oldest children.

The children of his late ex-partner Kim Porter, including Quincy Brown, Christian “King” Combs, Jessie Combs, and D’Lila Combs, along with Justin Combs, the son of his former partner Misa Hylton, and Chance Combs, his daughter from his relationship with Sarah Chapman, got to give their father a warm embrace before he met with his lawyers.

In their agreement, both the prosecution and Drew Brees’ legal team settled on a jury consisting of eight males and four females, along with four male and two female alternates for the court proceedings.

Marc Agnifilo, Combs’ lawyer, contended that the prosecution seemed to be deliberately excluding potential Black jurors. He suggested this could lead to a discernible pattern, and urged the judge to ask for justifications for these dismissals.

Nonetheless, Prosecutor Maurene Ryan Comey rejected the allegations, stating, “We have acted impartially throughout the proceedings, as evidenced by our multiracial jury.

As a lifestyle expert, I’d like to share with you the diverse backgrounds of the 12 individuals who serve on this jury:

* A 69-year-old actor and massage therapist who calls New York City home
* A 31-year-old investment analyst residing in the city
* A 51-year-old scientist who lives in Westchester
* A 30-year-old deli clerk, also from Westchester
* A 42-year-old nursing home aide based in New York City
* A 41-year-old communications clerk at a correctional facility, who calls the city his home
* A retired 68-year-old banker living in New York City
* Another 68-year-old retiree, this time from a telecommunications company based in Westchester
* A 43-year-old physician assistant who resides in the city
* A 39-year-old social worker who calls New York City home
* A 67-year-old logistics analyst living in the city
* And a 74-year-old treatment coordinator, also based in New York City.
