Diddy trial recap: Ex-assistant ‘Mia’ reveals she has ‘complex PTSD’ while testifying about harrowing sexual abuse
Sean “Diddy” Combs’s former assistant “Mia” returned to the stand Friday as week three of testimony in the music mogul’s sex trafficking trial draws to a close.
Direct examination of Mia, a pseudonym given to protect her identity, began again after proceedings resumed inside Manhattan federal court.
Mia, who worked for Combs for eight years, wiped her eyes as the jury left the room on Thursday. In her bombshell testimony, Mia told the court she was forced to perform a sex act on Combs and, in another incident, was allegedly raped in the spare room of his Los Angeles home.
The witness also described the “nightmare” of cleaning up hotel rooms used for Combs’s alleged “freak-offs.” The rooms were “destroyed,” Mia testified, adding that one time there was blood, which she told jurors Combs said was from Ventura’s period.
Combs is facing sex trafficking, transportation to engage in prostitution, and racketeering conspiracy charges. Combs was arrested in September 2024 as federal authorities alleged he threatened, abused, and coerced victims “to fulfill his sexual desires” between 2004 and 2024. Combs has denied any accusations of wrongdoing.
