SEAN “Diddy” Combs overdosed after partying at the Playboy Mansion, his ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura testified on day four of the disgraced rap mogul’s federal sex trafficking trial.
Cassie said she and Combs were addicted to painkillers throughout their 10-year relationship, but alleged that the drugs sparked even more physical abuse and manipulation from her ex.

Cassie, the government’s star witness, has testified for three days about the abuse she suffered at the hands of Combs, who she alleges raped her when she was dating her now-husband Alex Fine.
As the defense tried to prove she was a consenting adult in Combs’ drug-fueled sex marathons called “freak-offs” during cross-examination on Thursday, she spoke about his reported opiate use.

She said the two were “very much” dependent on opiates and that it led to a scary overdose in February 2012 after the couple went to a sex club in San Bernardino, California.
“And then he had a party at the Playboy Mansion that night, and I went home,” Cassie recalled on the stand.
“From what he told me, he took a really strong opioid that night. But we didn’t know what happened, so we took him to the hospital.”
Cassie said Combs would have “explosive” reactions to her taking drugs without him, and that they called themselves the “Get High Partners.”
She said she witnessed Combs go through withdrawals throughout their relationship, where he would become angry and volatile. Combs has yet to respond to the claims.
Cassie testified that opiates were a huge part of the twisted “freak-offs” that Combs allegedly forced her to take part in and that she would take them to cope with the disturbing ordeals.
CASSIE’S TESTIMONY
Over her first two days of questioning by prosecutors, Cassie recounted details of multiple “freak-offs” and violent episodes.
Cassie told the court Combs made incessant demands for orgies, which took place weekly and would last for up to four days as she took drugs including cocaine, ecstasy, and mushrooms to stay awake.
She said she was terrified to refuse Combs’ orders out of fear he would hurt her and share videos of the “freak-offs.”
Combs faces five criminal counts, including racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking by force, and transportation to engage in prostitution.
The rapper has pleaded not guilty to all charges as prosecutors continue to paint him as the ringleader of a criminal enterprise.
He has denied all allegations against him and insists he’s only engaged in consensual sex.
