  • LUNCH LIVE: More Disturbing Details as Testimony Continues in Diddy Trial Day 5
    May 16 2025

    On Day 5 of Diddy's Trial cross examination of Diddy's ex, Cassie Ventura, continues plus more witness testimony ahead. The defense hones in on consent, the relationship of Diddy and Cassie and their mindset as they participated in "freak offs," while the prosecutor's emphasis remains on Cassie's story and credibility.

    Welcome to this special episode of Surviving the Survivor, live from NYC, where host Joel Waldman is sitting inside the federal courthouse and will bring us up to date on what's going on in court today. Cameras are not allowed in federal courtrooms. Sean "Diddy" Combs is on trial for charges of sexually assaulting, trafficking and exploiting women over multiple decades.

    Sean "Diddy" Combs' ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura spent two days testifying, revealing graphic details of alleged abuse and sex acts. Her testimony comes after jurors heard from a hotel security manager about the infamous video of Combs beating her in 2016. Prosecutors say this is just the tip of the iceberg but today the defense is digging deeper into Cassie's story and trying to prove that this was love, jealousy and dv--but not case of racketeering or trafficking.
