The courtroom fell silent as Capricorn Clark, former assistant to Sean “Diddy” Combs, delivered a harrowing testimony that painted the hip-hop mogul as a man of unchecked power, manipulation, and terrifying violence. Choking back tears, Clark detailed years of abuse she allegedly endured while working under Combs between 2004 and 2012 — claims that add yet another chilling layer to the growing case against the embattled music titan.
“He said he should kill me.”
Clark testified that she was once held against her will for five days in a dilapidated New York building, forced to take polygraph tests after being accused of stealing jewelry. The ordeal, she claimed, included threats of being thrown into the East River if she failed, locked doors, and a level of fear that pushed her to the brink: “I was just trying to survive it,” she said.
Armed Rage Over Cassie
One of the most shocking parts of her testimony involved a disturbing account of Combs allegedly arming himself and storming Kid Cudi’s Los Angeles home after learning the rapper was dating Combs’ ex, Cassie Ventura Fine. According to Clark, Combs showed up at her apartment with a gun, demanded she come with him, and said, “We’re going to go kill this [man].” She later called Cassie to warn her that Combs wouldn’t let her leave until she convinced Cudi not to involve the police.
Cudi himself took the stand earlier and claimed Combs broke into his home, locked his dog in a bathroom, and that his car blew up in another incident — suggesting a chilling pattern of intimidation.
Allegations of Physical Assault
Clark’s testimony also corroborated earlier claims from Cassie about alleged physical abuse. She recalled Combs kicking Cassie repeatedly while she was curled up in the fetal position, and even overheard him say, “I should kill you. I should cut her face.” Clark called Cassie’s mother, Regina Ventura, begging her to involve police because she herself was too terrified.
Years of Psychological Control
Clark said she was forced to work grueling 9 a.m. to 4 a.m. shifts with no breaks, developed alopecia from stress, and was once threatened on her very first day after Combs found out she had a connection to his rival, Suge Knight. “If anything happens, I’ll have to kill you,” he allegedly told her in Central Park. She recounted being pushed 30 yards after casually complaining about turkey bacon and described her role as involving booking hotels filled with drugs, baby oil, and cameras for Combs’ infamous “freak offs.”
The Bigger Picture
These jaw-dropping testimonies are part of a much larger federal case, in which prosecutors accuse Combs of operating a 20-year scheme of sex trafficking, racketeering, and coercion. He has pleaded not guilty to all charges.
With testimony from Kid Cudi, Regina Ventura, Dawn Richard, and now Capricorn Clark, a troubling portrait is emerging — one that suggests decades of systemic abuse and intimidation in the shadows of Combs’ entertainment empire.
As the trial continues, one thing is clear: The veil of celebrity can no longer shield the truth.
