What did Kid Cudi say during his testimony in Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ trial
Rapper Scott “Kid Cudi” Mescudi on Thursday provided testimony against Sean “Diddy” Combs’ in sex trafficking trial.
During his testimony, he revealed that the hip-hop mogul broke into his home in 2011 after discovering he was dating his on-and-off girlfriend Casandra Ventura.
Testifying as a prosecution witness , Mescudi told the panel of 12 jurors and six alternates in Manhattan federal court that Ventura called him early one morning in December 2011 and told him Combs had found out about their relationship and asked Mescudi to pick her up.
Mescudi, wearing a leather jacket over a white shirt and blue jeans in court, said Ventura sounded nervous and scared, and warned him that she had given Combs his Hollywood Hills address.
Mescudi, known for hit songs “Day ‘N’ Nite” and “Memories,” said one of Ventura’s associates then told him that Combs was in his home. After dropping off Ventura in a Los Angeles hotel, Mescudi said he drove toward his home and called Combs.
On the way Mescudi testified he called Combs. “I said, mother******, you in my house?” Mescudi testified he told Combs. Mescudi said Combs sounded calm and told him he wanted to talk.
When he arrived at his house, Mescudi said no one else was there. He said gifts that he bought for his family were opened and his dog was locked in a bathroom. He said he reported a break-in to the police.
Mescudi testified that he and Ventura ended their relationship shortly after the break-in. He told jurors that he learned in January 2012 from his dog’s babysitter that his car had caught fire in his driveway.
In a civil sex trafficking lawsuit that “Me & U” singer Ventura filed against Combs in November 2023, she alleged that Combs blew up Mescudi’s car. Combs denied wrongdoing, and he paid her $20 million to settle the lawsuit shortly after it was filed.
