The prosecution called a paralegal and an investigator to introduce messages of all kinds between Combs's chief of staff, his other employees, his ex-girlfriends -- and him.

Another personal assistant of Combs was called. He testified that he set up -- and cleaned up -- "hotel nights," but on cross said that he never saw "Jane" hesitant to participate or appear unhappy afterward.

Both sides have played voice messages Combs sent this witness over the course of their three-year relationship. They're trickling out to the press as exhibits are released days later.

Karen Read's defense winds down. A former sheriff's deputy in the Betsy Faria case faces charges. And updates on Dan Serafini and Lori Vallow Daybell.

Defense attorney Teny Geragos pushed "Jane," who's testifying under a pseudonym, on her repeated choice to stay with Combs despite sexual performances that she says she was coerced to join.

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.

On Monday the second anonymous witness read out loud texts she sent Combs after reading Cassie Ventura's 2023 lawsuit: "It makes me sick how three pages, word for word, is exactly my experience."

A second anonymous witness testified that Combs pushed her to perform with a succession of commercial sex workers. She also said she carried drugs on cross country flights at his request.

The woman called Victim-2 in the government's third superseding indictment -- she's using a pseudonym to testify -- was dating him until his arrest last fall. She alleges he coerced her into a version of the sexual performances Cassie Ventura has testified about.

A man who worked security at the hotel where Sean Combs was caught on video beating Cassie Ventura testified that Combs paid $100,000 for what he thought was the only copy of it.

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."

The prosecution showed texts their witness sent saying she was having "night terrors" about her boss, but the defense showed Instagram posts where she said she loved him.

A woman who worked as Combs's personal assistant testified -- under the pseudonym "Mia" -- that he once had her work five days straight with no sleep, and that he sexually assaulted her.

For two years, David James ran errands for the head of Bad Boy. And then one day, he says, he was the driver when Combs went looking for his longtime rival Suge Knight -- with three handguns in his lap.

The former Danity Kane member endured a tough cross-examination. And a woman who was close to Cassie for almost 20 years says the two of them no longer speak.

The jury heard Combs' ex-girlfriend's voice on an angry audio recording played by the defense. She testified to drug use in their relationship -- on both sides -- and her lawyer spoke outside court.

The defense showed Combs's ex-girlfriend texts where she appeared to be a willing participant in drug-fueled sex acts. She testified that in the early days of their relationship she wanted to make him happy, but later feared his anger if she said no.
