Cassie Prepares to Take the Stand Against Diddy

Cassie is set to testify in Diddy’s upcoming trial, and it won’t be done anonymously, as confirmed by TMZ.

Known as “Victim 1,” Cassie is ready to take the stand using her real name in the trial where Diddy faces serious charges, including racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking, and transportation for prostitution.

While Cassie will reveal her identity, three other alleged victims have opted to keep theirs confidential during the proceedings. Prosecutors believe that using fake names will help protect these individuals from harassment and other negative repercussions.

Just last month, the prosecution provided Diddy’s legal team with the names of the three anonymous women, so he knows who is making accusations against him.

Cassie’s identity was already made public due to references in the indictment to a hotel beating video, which CNN reported on last year before allegedly destroying the tape.

Diddy was arrested and charged in September 2024, following federal raids on his homes in Los Angeles and Miami. He is currently being held at MDC Brooklyn, a well-known federal facility, as he awaits his trial set to start on May 5. Diddy has pleaded not guilty and denies all allegations against him.

Cassie initially filed a lawsuit against Diddy in November 2023, claiming rape, abuse, and human trafficking. The two parties reached a settlement just days after the lawsuit was filed, but this seemed to trigger a wave of additional lawsuits against the music mogul.
