Overview

  • Kid Cudi testified on May 22, 2025, recounting a December 2011 break-in at his Los Angeles home shortly after Sean 'Diddy' Combs discovered his relationship with Cassie Ventura.
  • He described finding security cameras repositioned, Christmas gifts unwrapped, and his dog locked in a bathroom during the alleged break-in.
  • Cudi also testified about the January 2012 firebombing of his Porsche, stating a Molotov cocktail had been inserted through a cut in the car's roof, rendering it unsalvageable.
  • Prosecutors argue these incidents demonstrate Combs's use of intimidation and arson as part of a broader racketeering and sex-trafficking enterprise.
  • Combs, who has pleaded not guilty, faces charges including racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking, with a potential life sentence if convicted.
