Moments later, Combs is seen picking up what appears to be a vase from a table and throwing it at Cassie.
The horrific assault appears to match the allegations Cassie made in the lawsuit she filed against the Bad Boy mogul in November 2023.
Cassie alleged that in March 2016, an “extremely intoxicated” Combs “punched her in the face, giving her a black eye.”
“Ms. Ventura attempted to leave the hotel room, but upon leaving, Mr. Combs woke up and began yelling at Ms. Ventura,” the court filing says.
“He followed her into the hotel hallway while yelling at her. He grabbed her and then picked up glass vases from the hallways and threw them at her, causing the glass to shatter around them as she ran to the elevator to escape.”
Cassie declined to comment to CNN about the discovered video.
Douglas H. Wigdor, Cassie’s attorney, told the outlet: “The distressing video only further confirmed Mr.’s disturbing and predatory behavior.
“Words cannot express the courage and fortitude that Ms. Ventura demonstrated in coming forward to bring this to light.”
