Cassie spoke out about her emotional testimony in Sean “Diddy” Combs’ trial.
Cassie’s attorney Douglas Wigdor read a statement on the singer’s behalf outside the Daniel Patrick Moynihan U.S. Courthouse in New York City on Friday, May 16, according to multiple outlets.
“This week has been extremely challenging but also remarkably empowering and healing for me,” the statement read. “I hope that my testimony has given strength and a voice to other survivors and can help others who have suffered to speak up and also heal from abuse and fear.”
The statement continued, “For me, the more I heal, the more I can remember. And the more I can remember, the more I will never forget.”
Cassie came face to face with ex-boyfriend Sean “Diddy” Combs during her first day of testimony in his sex trafficking trial, and Us Weekly has a look inside the courthouse.

In addition to speaking on how it felt to take the stand Cassie (full name Casandra Ventura) also thanked her family and supporters for getting her through this tough time.
“I want to thank my family and my advocates for their unwavering support and am grateful for all the kindness and encouragement that I have received,” the statement read. “I am glad to put this chapter of my life to rest as I turn to focus on the conclusion of my pregnancy. I ask for privacy for me and for my growing family.”
Diddy was arrested in September 2024 and charged with sex trafficking, racketeering conspiracy and transportation to engage in prostitution. He pleaded not guilty to all charges and has denied all of the allegations against him.
