Week 3 of the high-profile RICO trial of rap mogul Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs is drawing to a close, and today (29), the day was centered on another alleged victim of Diddy’s sexual assault, who is testifying anonymously under the name ‘Mia’.
Prosecutors want to prove that Diddy used his fame, fortune and many businesses to run a sex-trafficking and racketeering scheme.
‘Mia’, his former assistant, told the jury that the disgraced rapper first sexually assaulted her a few months after she started working for him in 2009.
It was Diddy’s 40th birthday party at the penthouse at the Plaza Hotel.
New York Post reported:
“He called Mia into the kitchen, clearing everyone else out, and started telling her what a great job she was doing working for him, before pouring them both two shots to toast his birthday. […] The shots affected her much more than normal and the next thing she knew Combs was kissing her and putting his hands up her dress.
‘He put his arm next against my head against the wall and leaned in to kiss me and put his other hand up the side of my dress’, she testified, noting she didn’t want him to kiss or grope her.”
‘Mia’ testified that she woke up in a meeting room of the penthouse, having no recollection of what happened.
Another, even more disturbing moment came when ‘Mia’ testified about waking up in her room in Diddy’s house with him ‘on top’ of her.
She said her former boss forbade her from locking the bedroom door.
“One night she woke up to ‘the weight of a person on top of [her]’. Her voice breaking, Mia described how the Bad Boy Records founder quickly undid his pants and raped her.
‘I remember it was sort of like him telling me shhh’, Mia recounted. ‘It happened so fast, using one hand to get his, I guess his pants or whatever off’. She said she froze and felt, ‘terrified and confused and ashamed and… scared’.”
She told prosecutor Madison Smyser she didn’t want to have sex with Combs.
In another instance, as she sat on the floor of Diddy’s closet helping him pack a bag for a trip, he suddenly forced her to give him oral sex.
Mia told the jury she felt ‘like trash. Scared and ashamed like an idiot’.
She never reported this because she knew his power and his control over her, and besides, he was prone to violent rages.
She feared she’d be black-listed from the entertainment business, and that the cops would not believe her claims.
‘Mia’ will continue her testimony Friday morning.
