Diddy wants to pin the 2016 “freak-off” at the InterContinental Hotel and his subsequent beating of Cassie on… Cassie!
During Day 4 of the rap mogul’s trial, defense attorney Anna Estevao brought forward text messages suggesting it was actually Cassie who planned the “freak-off” at the LA hotel in 2016. Estevao grilled the 38-year-old, asking:
“You were suggesting doing a ‘freak off’ at a hotel?”

After reviewing the messages, Cassie responded, “It doesn’t say it here.” However, she ultimately agreed “Yes.” She had planned that one. Estevao further asked:
“This is all arranging for this ‘freak-off’ that’s about to happen at the InterContinental and we’ve all seen the effects of it?”
The “effects of it,” of course, being a really nice way of referring to Diddy violently beating Cassie, which the jury has already seen in hotel security footage from that day. The R&B singer responded, “Yep.” OK… we already knew she worked on organizing the freak offs. It doesn’t mean she wasn’t doing so to try to appease Diddy. We’ve seen victims of abuse do a lot for their abusers.
Is his team trying to paint Cassie as some kind of mastermind behind the freak offs? Or that’s she’s somehow responsible for the domestic violence she suffered that day?! ICK… Not sure how that’s going to sit with the jury!
Earlier in her cross examination, Estevao attempted to paint Cassie as a consenting and enthusiastic participant in Diddy’s “freak-offs” with text messages dating all the way back to 2009 — one of which the Me & U singer told the Bad Boy Records founder:
“I’m always ready to freak off LOLOL”
However, The Perfect Match star made it clear during her two-day testimony that she hated participating in said “freak-offs” and only did so to make Diddy happy… And because she was scared of what he might do if she said no:
“It got to a point where I just didn’t feel like I had much of a choice, didn’t really know what ‘no’ could be or what ‘no’ could turn into.”
